Product Overview

SYLVANIA 54306 Tru-Aim MR16 – 20W 12V 35° Flood Halogen Lamp (GU5.3 Base, ANSI BAB, Covered Dichroic, Axial Filament, 3000K)
The SYLVANIA 54306 (20MR16/FL35/C(BAB)-12V) is a compact Tru-Aim series low-voltage halogen MR16 reflector bulb with a 35° flood beam and advanced IR dichroic technology. The infrared reflective coating reduces heat in the light beam by up to 66% (most heat emitted rearward), combined with a UV-filter capsule and axial filament for safe, brilliant, constant-color accent lighting—ideal for heat-sensitive displays in retail showcases, museums, jewelry cases, galleries, track lighting, and architectural applications. ANSI BAB code, made in Germany.
