Product Overview
The GE 77901 (Q20MR16HIR/CCG24) features Halogen Infrared (HIR) technology, which uses a specialized coating to reflect heat back onto the filament. This allows the lamp to operate more efficiently, producing 35W worth of light while consuming only 20W. With GE's ConstantColor® coating, the lamp maintains a crisp, warm white light without the color shifting or greenish tint often seen in aging standard MR16s.
