Halogen Heat Lamp 1600 W

The Ushio QIH240-1600T/E is a 1600 W halogen bulb designed for infrared heat applications. It operates on a 240 V supply and uses an R7s recessed single-contact base. The lamp produces a colour temperature of 2500 K for a bright white light output.

R7s Base and Voltage Limits

This double-ended lamp requires a fixture that accepts an R7s recessed single-contact base and a 240 V circuit. The 1600 W rating demands wiring and sockets rated for the corresponding current. It is not compatible with standard Edison screw sockets or lower-voltage systems.

Replaces Lower-Wattage Halogen Lamps

The bulb upgrades from lower-wattage halogen heat lamps when higher radiant output is required. The 5000-hour rated life reduces replacement frequency compared to shorter-life alternatives. The jump is worth it for processes needing intense infrared heat at 240 V.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the 1600 W 240 V version or a lower-wattage alternative?

Choose the 1600 W model when your fixture and circuit are rated for 240 V and you need maximum infrared output; a lower-wattage lamp will produce less heat and light.

What does the 1600 W rating actually deliver once the lamp is installed?

It draws 1600 watts at 240 V, producing intense infrared heat and a 2500 K white light for the rated 5000-hour lifespan.

The lamp uses an R7s base — what does that limit in practice?

The R7s recessed single-contact base only fits fixtures designed for double-ended halogen lamps, so the lamp cannot be used in standard screw or bayonet sockets.
