Frequently Asked Questions
Will it fit a G4 bi-pin socket?
No. G4 pins sit 4 mm apart; the GY6.35 base spaces its pins 6.35 mm apart, so it needs a GY6.35 socket.
Can it run straight from a 120 V outlet?
No. It is a 12 V lamp and runs from the 12 V supply of a low-voltage fixture or transformer.
What separates the JC5043 from the JC5043F?
The F version has a frosted envelope. The JC5043 is clear, which keeps the filament a small, sharp source for reflectors and lenses.
Fifty watts fits in a capsule under two inches long because of the halogen cycle: the gas inside carries evaporated tungsten back to the filament instead of letting it darken the envelope. Seat it by the base and keep fingertips off the envelope.
