Product Overview

The GE 16451 Q100/DC Quartz Lamp is a 120-watt, 120-volt Quartzline halogen lamp designed for professional SSTV (Stage, Studio & Theater) applications. It delivers a 2950K color temperature with CRI 100, providing full-spectrum, continuous light output with accurate color rendering for entertainment and broadcast environments.

The CC-8 coiled coil filament and compact bulb design (0.5-inch diameter, 4.55-inch overall length) allow this lamp to fit tight optical systems in stage and studio fixtures. With a 2000-hour rated life, this lamp significantly reduces maintenance frequency compared to shorter-life halogen lamps, making it ideal for installed fixtures where relamping access is difficult or costly.

Why Choose This Product

• 2000-hour rated life – reduced maintenance: Significantly longer life than many stage halogen lamps (typically 200-500 hours), lowering total cost of ownership for installed fixtures.
• CRI 100 – perfect color rendering: Continuous-spectrum halogen light ensures accurate color reproduction without spectral gaps – essential for film, video, and live production.
• 2950K warm white color temperature: Slightly warmer than standard 3200K studio white, suitable for applications requiring a softer, more natural tungsten ambiance.
• CC-8 coiled coil filament: Provides a compact, intense source optimized for ellipsoidal spotlights, Fresnel fixtures, and follow spots.
• Compact T-type bulb: 0.5-inch diameter and 4.55-inch MOL fits tight optical systems in professional luminaires.
• GE Quartzline reliability: Trusted by film, broadcast, and theatrical production facilities worldwide.

Compatibility & Replacement

Fixture type: This GE 16451 Quartzline lamp is designed for professional stage and studio fixtures that accept 120W/120V halogen lamps with compact T-type bulb dimensions. Common in smaller ellipsoidal spotlights, Fresnel fixtures, and specialty luminaires.

Base type: Not specified in source data. Verify your fixture's lampholder type before ordering (common bases for this class include G9.5, GY9.5, or medium prefocus).

Ballast: No ballast required – operates directly on 120V mains power.

Before ordering, confirm:

• Base type: Physically inspect your existing lamp or fixture lampholder to confirm base compatibility (not provided here).
• Voltage – 120V: Verify fixture and supply circuit are 120V.
• Physical dimensions: Confirm your fixture accepts a lamp with 4.55-inch overall length and 0.5-inch bulb diameter.
• Fixture wattage rating: Ensure fixture is rated for at least 120W.
• Burn position: Consult your fixture documentation for approved lamp orientation (not specified by manufacturer for this lamp).
• Initial lumens: Verify lumen output from GE spec sheet if required for photometric planning.

Safety & Handling Notes

• High pressure warning – face shield required: Quartzline halogen lamps operate under high internal pressure. Always wear a face shield and protective gloves during handling and installation. Lamp burst can cause serious injury.
• No bare hands: Never touch the quartz envelope with bare skin. Oils cause hot spots leading to premature failure or lamp burst. Use clean gloves or a lint-free cloth.
• Do not exceed rated voltage: Operating above 120V dramatically shortens lamp life. Verify supply voltage before installing.
• Burn position: Observe the rated burn position as specified by your fixture manufacturer (not provided for this lamp – consult fixture documentation).
• Extreme heat and UV output: Use only in approved enclosed luminaires with appropriate UV filtering.
• Allow complete cool-down before handling: Allow lamp to cool completely before relamping. Do not touch immediately after switching off.
• Follow your fixture manufacturer's service documentation for lamp replacement procedures.
