Lifespan

The useful life of a Lumagalss™ lamp varies by application, and is contingent on brightness, duty cycle and ambient temperature. The closer to the maximum brightness Lumaglass™ is operated at, and the higher the ambient temperature, the shorter the useful life of the lamp.

Unlike other light sources, Lumaglass™ never burns out completely, the lamp slowly loses brightness over time. It is recommended for most common applications that the lamp be replaced every 8,000 - 10,000 hours to enjoy the full utility of the product. However, in accent lighting applications, the lamp is generally effective well in excess of 20,000 hours.
