SYLVANIA | 45W 120V PAR38 Halogen Capsylite® Wide Spot Lamp

The Sylvania Capsylite® 45W Halogen PAR38 Reflector Lamp is a commercial-grade, high-performance directional lighting solution engineered for precision highlighting and accent applications. Part of the premier **Capsylite®** product family, this rugged **PAR38 sealed-glass reflector** features a standard **E26 Medium Screw-in base** and an advanced **CC-8 axial filament design** optimized to withstand grid variations. Delivering a concentrated **12° Wide Spot (WSP) beam spread**, it projects a crisp, inviting **2950K Warm White** illumination with an elite, museum-quality **100 CRI** color accuracy rating. Operating directly on standard **120V line voltage**, this premium spotlight focuses light with exceptional structural punch while maintaining a long, cost-effective service life of up to **2,500 hours**.

Precision Capsylite® Splendor and Pristine Color Fidelity

Sylvania Capsylite® PAR38 lamps integrate an optimized internal split-optic reflector profile paired with a high-purity halogen burner block. By precisely capturing and projecting lumens forward, this advanced configuration produces an intense center-beam candlepower focal zone while dramatically limiting distracting stray spill light. Boasting an absolute **100 CRI** metric—the benchmark threshold for natural, distortion-free visualization—this lamp ensures that intricate textures, rich paint pigments, and commercial retail merchandise stand out with maximum pop, depth, and pristine optical clarity.

• Focused 12° Wide Spot Punch: Engineered with a specialized smooth-lens distribution layout that casts a tight, long-throw spot light beam, making it perfect for high-ceiling architectural structures.
• Museum-Grade Visual Rendering: Possesses a pristine 100 CRI accuracy matrix that eliminates dull color shifts, providing true-to-life visualization in commercial showrooms and galleries.
• Rugged Sealed-Beam Hard Glass: Built to endure rigorous commercial demands, featuring a durable PAR38 glass envelope that protects internal components from thermal stresses.
• Direct Line-Voltage Integration: Seamlessly retrofits into standard line-voltage E26 sockets without requiring complex low-voltage step-down transformer accessories.
