Philips MSR Gold 1200 FastFit

This metal halide lamp delivers 95000 lumens at 6000K colour temperature for stage and studio use. It draws 1200 watts and fits a PGJX50 base. The gold-plated caps improve heat protection while P3 technology allows operation in any position.

Upgrading from lower-output discharge lamps

Replacing a lower-wattage discharge lamp with this 1200 watt model increases beam intensity for larger venues. The jump is worth it when the application demands 95000 lumens and a 750 hour rated life at 80 CRI. It is not suited for buyers who need longer service intervals or lower power draw.

PGJX50 base and discharge constraints

The PGJX50 base limits compatibility to fixtures designed for this specific socket. Metal halide technology requires a suitable ballast and a warm-up period before reaching full output. Hot re-strike capability is not supported, so power interruptions cause downtime. The 6000K output is fixed and cannot be adjusted.
