High Intensity Discharge

This series of lamps are a type of electrical gas-discharge lamp and creates light by passing a current through a gas – much like a fluorescent light. However, as the name implies, High Intensity Discharge lamps are much brighter and produce a much higher lumen, best used in area’s where bright light is needed, such as warehouses, car headlights, and factories. This family of lights has three main subtypes – the Metal Halide, the High-Pressure Sodium Light, and Mercury Vapour Lamps.

High output lamps generally operating on a ballast (some self ballasted designs available) Lamps come in HPS, MV MH, CDM. The applications are sports lighting, theatre lamps, warehouse, street lighting, car parks, shop lighting to name a few. There are many different base (GES ES  BC (P)SFC G22, G38) and bulb designs available.
