without compromising quality and quantity of light.
Lighting Cost Comparison
GE Technology Advantage:
Lamps 4%
Electricity 88%
Labor 8%
Cost of light: the purchase price of the lamps represents only a
small fraction of the overall cost of light. Energy consumption is
the largest expense and upgrading your lighting with high
technology GE lamps can save thousands of dollars each year.

ENERGY SAVINGS
Only GE can offer this many energy saving
alternatives because of our exclusive
technology platforms.
GE’s exclusive thin film design offers
dramatic energy savings. Most of the wattage
used by standard lamps generates invisible
infrared light energy. This is wasted electricity.
GE engineers and scientists developed an
exclusive infrared reflective coating,
Pow-IR-Film, for the inner filament tube that
actually uses this wasted energy to help heat
the filament and produce more visible, useful
light. Now, the GE engineers and scientists
have extended this technology even further
with Silver Coating technology. GE’s silver
coating process produces an additional 12%
efficiency gain in the lamps which allows
GE Lighting to drive additional energy savings,
lumens and life which produces even more
operating savings for your
bottom line.

Note on 130V products: In order to increase lamp life some
customers will run 130 volt product on a 120 volt circuit. Generally
speaking this will double the life of the product and require 10%
less watts. However, lumen output is reduced by approximately
25%. To save energy without compromising light output, find the
lamps with the light output you need, then choose the one with
the lowest watts.

Savings/lamp based on $2.00 labor cost and $0.10 energy rate KWH over lamp life.
3 Easy Steps to Energy Savings and Longer Life.
1. Start in the white, Standard Halogen area and locate the Halogen
PAR lamp you are using today. All products listed to the right of that
Standard PAR will have the same/similar light output but will provide
energy savings and longer life.
2. To determine your Longer Life “Better”, “Best”and “ Optimum”
alternatives, reference the Red Life Option Bar at the top of the matrix.
3. To determine your Energy Saving “Better”, “Best” and “Optimum”
alternatives, reference the Green Energy Option Bar at the top of the matrix.
