These are standard linear halogen lamps. EU legislation has banned the production of these standard efficiency lamps and promotes the use of 'Energy Saver' halogen lamps. See related item below.
Also known as a double ended halogen lamp.
The halogen lamp can operate its filament at a higher temperature than in a standard vacuum or inert-gas filled lamp, without loss of operating life.
This gives it a slightly higher efficiency (10-20%) than standard incandescent lamps.
It gives a bright warm white light that is considered by many to be the nearest to daylight from any lamp.
