50W Metal Halide Lamp

Does what I need - replaces a worn out 50W Pulse Metal Halide lamp. The original lamp lasted about 2-1/4 years. The lamp runs an average of about 9 hours in midsummer and 15 hours in midwinter.

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • A few minor things

Revane proves once again what scumbags they are.

Revane proves once again what scumbags they are. I have been buying this bulb for many years now priced at $10.77. Free basic shipping. It jumps to $14.23 overnight. Free shipping on my ass. I will never buy these lamps again. Just like the main video, they watch the free video you like and then take it and charge you for it. They are greedy pieces of junk.

Pros
  • A sea of positive emotions
Cons
  • A few problems

So far so good for lightbulbs

Home Depot replacement bulbs didn't last long and were expensive. These bulbs were less than half the price and are quite good (so far). They haven't been around long enough to say if they'll survive the 10,000 hour claim. Time will tell, but so far I'm happy. Update: One of the two bulbs I bought in February only lasted 3 months. Less than 10% of declared lamp life. The other is still on, but I'm definitely disappointed in the performance of the first.

Pros
  • Nice packaging
Cons
  • Can't remember

Great reliable lamp! Nice bright light!

The 50W Sunlite Metal Halide lamp is a superior lamp. We ordered it for several street lamps. The light is pleasant and bright, and the weight of the bulb itself suggests it will last a long time. After 2 months of use (+/- 4 hours of light per day) we are not yet able to comment on lamp life (ie our experience versus advertised life). Warning: the bulb is quite large (mostly long) and may not fit every street light (learned from experience).

Pros
  • An absolute legend
Cons
  • High price

Poor durability, very variable quality control

When I first installed lights for my garden I bought a few of these because I needed a lot of them and they were a lot cheaper than big brands. Color rendering is as good as other major manufacturers' quartz metal halide lamps and the color temperature of 4100 degrees is almost ideal for outdoor lighting. The problem I have is that they don't last as long as they should. . With normal use from dusk to dawn, such an impulse start lamp should last five to ten years. Of the six lamps purchased…

Pros
  • Best
Cons
  • Ugly packaging
