PAR38 Flood for High-Output Spaces
The GE Lighting 45677 is a 70 watt ceramic metal halide lamp built for fixtures that need intense, directional light. It suits commercial displays, retail accent lighting, horticulture setups and outdoor flood applications where a compact high-lumen source is required. The 3000 K output delivers warm white illumination with consistent colour rendering over the lamp life.
E26 Base with ANSI M143/O or M98/O Ballast
This lamp screws into a standard medium E26 socket but demands a compatible pulse-start ballast rated to the ANSI codes listed. The PAR38 reflector produces a 25 degree flood beam that concentrates the 4800 lumen output onto the target area, freeing the installer from using multiple lower-output halogen lamps to achieve the same coverage. It operates on a 120 volt supply.
Replaces Halogen PAR38 Floods
Compared with traditional halogen PAR38 lamps, this ceramic metal halide unit delivers roughly three to five times the lumens per watt, cutting energy draw while boosting intensity. The upgrade is worth it when a fixture runs long hours and the 10000 hour rated life reduces relamp labour. It is not suited for enclosed fixtures without proper thermal management, for dimming circuits, or for instant restrike after a power interruption.

Questions about this item

The manufacturer rates the lamp at 10000 hours of operation.
How much heat does a 70 W ceramic metal halide flood add to a room during all-day use?
At 70 watts the lamp adds a steady thermal load comparable to a small incandescent heater, so ventilation or air-conditioning should handle the extra warmth.
Which ballast ANSI codes are required for the E26-base CMH70/PAR38FL/ECO to start and run correctly?
The lamp is designed for ANSI M143/O or M98/O pulse-start ballasts.
