Double-Ended Linear Lamp

Double-Ended Linear Lamp

A family of rigid linear lamps with electrical contacts at both ends.

Bulb Technology

Available Bulb Base

A family of rigid linear lamps with electrical contacts at both ends.

How to identify Double-Ended Linear Lamp

The lamp is a straight tube with a contact at each end. Exact overall length and end-cap style are essential identifiers; common bases include R7s, RX7s and Fc2.

Common applications

Floodlights, wall washers, uplighters, studio equipment, architectural fixtures and some HID luminaires.

Technologies and base options

Double-ended linear lamps exist in halogen, LED and HID forms. Base, length, voltage, operating gear and permitted burning position vary by technology.

Technologies represented in this library: LED, Halogen, HID.

Available base types: R7s, RX7s, Fc2.

Typical market availability

Technology Common wattage range Typical lumen range Common colour temperatures Common voltage options
LED 5–30 W 400–3000 lm 2700K, 3000K, 4000K, 5000K 120V; 220–240V
HALOGEN 60–500 W 800–10000 lm Approximately 2900K–3200K 120V; 220–240V
HID 70–400 W 5000–40000 lm 3000K, 4000K, 5000K, 6000K Ballast-operated; system voltage varies

These are representative market ranges, not guaranteed limits. Availability varies by manufacturer, voltage, base, beam, region and product generation.

How to select the correct lamp

Measure overall length precisely, identify both end contacts, read the fixture label and confirm voltage, control gear, orientation and heat clearance.

Compatibility and safety

A similar-looking linear lamp may require a ballast or ignitor, may have a different operating position, or may be electrically incompatible.

Important: The library describes a lamp format, not a particular product. A shared shape does not guarantee matching voltage, base, dimensions, light distribution or control-gear requirements. Confirm the fixture label and product datasheet, or ask a Bulb World lighting specialist.

Replacement Notes

Measure overall length precisely, identify both end contacts, read the fixture label and confirm voltage, control gear, orientation and heat clearance.

Capability Warning

A similar-looking linear lamp may require a ballast or ignitor, may have a different operating position, or may be electrically incompatible.
