*Source data listed a 55° beam angle alongside the "Very Narrow Spot" designation — these are inconsistent, since VNSP beams are typically in the 4–8° range. Beam angle has been omitted pending verification against the GE manufacturer specification sheet.
Product Overview
The GE 14553 25PAR36VNSP is a low-voltage halogen PAR36 reflector lamp designed for landscape lighting, accent fixtures, and specialty low-voltage applications in hospitality, healthcare, and office environments. The 5.5V operating voltage requires a dedicated low-voltage transformer matched to the lamp's electrical characteristics — this is not a line-voltage lamp.
The screw terminal base is a wire-connection base type common in landscape and marine fixtures, distinct from standard screw-in Edison bases — confirm your fixture uses screw terminal connections rather than a threaded socket before ordering. The very narrow spot beam designation concentrates the lamp's modest 150-lumen output into a tight, high-intensity beam suited for precise long-throw accent applications such as illuminating a specific tree, architectural feature, or pathway marker from a distance.
Compatible Applications
- Landscape and garden lighting — Low-voltage PAR36 fixtures for tree uplighting, pathway accent, and garden feature illumination.
- Hospitality and healthcare accent lighting — Low-voltage display and feature lighting in hotel, healthcare, and institutional settings.
- Office and architectural accent lighting — Low-voltage track and accent fixtures using PAR36 screw terminal lamps.
Before Ordering — Verify
- Voltage: Confirm your transformer output matches 5.5–6V. This is a low-voltage lamp and will not operate on standard line voltage.
- Base Type: Confirm your fixture uses a screw terminal connection, not a threaded Edison screw base.
- Wattage: Confirm the transformer is rated for at least 25W per lamp, plus total connected load.
- Beam Spread: The source listing for this lamp shows conflicting beam angle data — confirm the actual beam angle with GE or the product spec sheet if precise beam control is critical to your application.
- Physical Fit: Confirm 2.75" MOL and 4.5" diameter fit within your fixture's lamp housing.
Safety and Handling Guidelines
- Low-Voltage Transformer Required: Use only with a compatible low-voltage transformer matched to lamp voltage and wattage. Do not connect to line voltage.
- Do not touch the lamp envelope with bare hands. Skin oils cause hot spots leading to premature failure. Use clean gloves or a lint-free cloth.
- Allow Cooling: Allow the lamp to cool fully before handling or replacement.
- Outdoor Use: If used in landscape fixtures, confirm the fixture is rated for outdoor/wet location use as appropriate for your installation.
Compliance
- Verify RoHS compliance status and additional certifications with the GE manufacturer specification sheet prior to use in regulated installations.
