Rated Average Life | Rated average life is the lamp-burning hours to median life expectancy. | ||
Search Logic: | User may specify either, both, or neither of the "At Least" and "No More Than" values. Products returned as matches will meet all specified criteria. | ||
Initial Lumens | Initial lumens are the initial light output. A lumen is the standard international (SI) unit of luminous flux or quantity of light. | ||
Search Logic: | User may specify either, both, or neither of the "At Least" and "No More Than" values. Products returned as matches will meet all specified criteria. | ||
Mean Lumens | Mean lumens is the average lamp output over a designated amount of time, usually 40 to 50 % of rated lamp life. A lumen is the standard international (SI) unit of luminous flux or quantity of light. | ||

Color Rendering Index | Color rendering index is an indication of a lamp's ability to render object colors in a normal, natural way. A higher number indicates better color appearance. Numbers range from 0 to 100. | ||
Search Logic: | User may specify either, both, or neither of the "At Least" and "No More Than" values. Products returned as matches will meet all specified criteria. | ||
Color Temperature | Color temperature is a measure of the visual "warmth" or "coolness" of the light from the lamp. The higher the value, the whiter or "cooler" the light appears. | ||

Your choices are... | |||
1" Ribbon Leads | 1" ribbon leads. | ||
4" Leads | 4" Leads. | ||
6" Flex Leads | 6" flexible leads. | ||
2-Pin | 2 Pins make the connection for the lamp. | ||
4-Pin (Circling) | Circling is a four-pin connection. | ||
Ad medium | Ad medium is halfway between a medium based and a mogul screw base. | ||
Ad medium Skirted | Ad medium is halfway between a medium based and a mogul screw base. The term "skirted" means that the base flares out at the top. | ||
Base Restricted Mogul | Movement of the base is restricted. The restricted mogul base is used for many mercury, metal halide, and sodium lamps. It also used for incandescent lamps over 300 W. Lamps requiring more than 200 V are more likely to have a mogul (or larger) base instead of a medium base. | ||
Bi-Pin T-5 | Bi-pin T-5 uses a miniature-sized, two-pin connection. | ||
Bi-Pin T-8 | Bi-pin T-8 uses a small, two-pin connection. | ||
Bi-Pin T-10 | Bi-pin T-10 uses a medium-sized, two-pin connection. | ||
Bi-Pin T-12 | Bi-pin T-12 uses a large, two pin connection. | ||
Candelabra | Candelabra bases are used mostly for decorative lighting such as chandeliers. 15/32 inch. | ||
Candelabra Refocus | Used for decorative lighting, chandeliers. 15/32 inch. No screw, refocus. | ||
Double Contact Bayonet | No screw, two bayonets on bottom make contact. | ||
Double Contact Bayonet Candelabra | The candelabra base has a double bayonet connection instead of a screw connection. | ||
Extended Mogul End Prong | Used for most mercury, metal halide, sodium lamps, and also incandescent lamps over 300 watts. Lamps requiring more than 200 volts are more likely to have a mogul (or larger) base rather than a medium base. | ||
G-12 | G-12 is a bi-pin base. | ||
Intermediate | Intermediate bases are used for decorative lighting such as chandeliers. 21/32 inch. | ||
Medium | The medium base is the standard household base for lamps up to about 300 W. Medium bases are also used for a few mercury and sodium lamps under 100 W. | ||
Medium IPost | Standard household lamp base for lamps up to about 300 watts also used for a few mercury and sodium lamps under 100 watts. No screw, IPost connection. | ||
Medium Refocus | Standard household lamp base for lamps up to about 300 watts also used for a few mercury and sodium lamps under 100 watts. No screw, Refocus. | ||
Medium Skirted | The medium base is the standard household base for lamps up to about 300 W. Medium bases are also used for a few mercury and sodium lamps under 100 W. The term "skirted" means that the base flares out at the top. | ||

Miniature Candelabra | Miniature candelabra bases are used mostly for flashlight lamps and instrument panel lamps, typically under 30 V. | ||
Miniature Screw | A small screw base. | ||
Mogul | Mogul bases are used for most mercury, metal halide, and sodium lamps. They are also used for incandescent lamps over 300 W. Lamps requiring more than 200 V are more likely to have a mogul (or larger) base instead of a medium base. | ||
Mogul End Prong | Bases are used for most mercury, metal halide, and sodium lamps. They are also used for incandescent lamps over 300 W. Lamps requiring more than 200 V are more likely to have a mogul (or larger) base instead of a medium base. The base has prongs instead of threads. | ||
Mogul IPost | Used for most mercury, metal halide, sodium lamps, and also incandescent lamps over 300 watts. Lamps requiring more than 200 volts are more likely to have a mogul (or larger) base rather than a medium base. No screw, iPost connection. | ||
Mogul Refocus | Used for most mercury, metal halide, sodium lamps, and also incandescent lamps over 300 watts. Lamps requiring more than 200 volts are more likely to have a mogul (or larger) base rather than a medium base. The base has two prongs as opposed to thread. | ||
Mogul End Prong | Used for most mercury, metal halide, sodium lamps, and also incandescent lamps over 300 watts. Lamps requiring more than 200 volts are more likely to have a mogul (or larger) base rather than a medium base. No screw, end prong connection. | ||
PG-12 | PG-12 is smaller than a G-12 base, but still a bi-pin base. | ||
Position Oriented Mogul | The lamp has a particular orientation determined by the base. The position-oriented mogul base is used for many mercury, metal halide, and sodium lamps. It is also used for incandescent lamps over 300 W. Lamps requiring more than 200 V are more likely to have a mogul (or larger) base instead of a medium base. | ||

Single Pin T-8 | Single-pin T-8 uses a medium-sized, single-pin connection. | ||
Single Pin T-12 | Single-pin T-12 uses a large, single-pin connection. | ||
Three Contact Medium | The medium base is the standard household base for lamps up to about 300 W. Medium bases are also used for a few mercury and sodium lamps under 100 W. The three-contact medium base has thicker threads than an ordinary medium base. | ||
Three Contact Mogul | Mogul bases are used for most mercury, metal halide, and sodium lamps. They are also used for incandescent lamps over 300 W. Lamps requiring more than 200 V are more likely to have a mogul (or larger) base instead of a medium base. | ||
Other Lamp Bases | Other unlisted lamp bases. | ||
