Compact 12 V halogen capsule
The Philips BRL 64610 is a 50 watt T3 halogen bulb designed for 12 volt fixtures with a G6.35 two-pin base. It produces 1600 lumens at a 3400 K colour temperature and achieves a colour rendering index of 100. The clear finish and 1.716 inch length suit desk lamps, hanging lights and similar residential fittings.
Fits G6.35 sockets in low-voltage circuits
This capsule requires a 12 volt supply and a compatible G6.35 holder; it does not operate on mains voltage without a transformer. Its 0.453 inch diameter allows installation in tight housings where larger bulbs cannot sit. The 50 hour rated life means frequent replacement in constant-use applications.
Replaces older 50 W halogen capsules
The 1600 lumen rating exceeds the 1500 lumen range typical of earlier equivalents, giving more light for the same power draw. Builders maintaining existing low-voltage track or task lighting gain higher brightness without rewiring. Buyers needing longer service intervals or mains-voltage operation should consider alternative technologies.

Questions about this item
How long does the 50-hour rated life last under continuous daily use?
The lamp is rated for 50 hours; at 12 hours a day that equals roughly four days before replacement is needed.
Does the 50-watt halogen capsule run hot enough to require special ventilation in a desk lamp?
Yes, a 50-watt halogen capsule reaches very high surface temperatures, so the fixture must be rated for 50 watts and provide adequate airflow.
Will the G6.35 2-pin base fit my existing 12-volt low-voltage transformer?
The G6.35 base requires a 12-volt AC or DC supply; verify your transformer outputs 12 volts and can deliver at least 50 watts.
