Compact fluorescent lamps have meanwhile got a foothold in the market and will replace light bulbs entirely in the foreseeable future. Hitherto their use was however mostly restricted to 220 V mains voltage burn positions. In order to extend the range of application and to make use independent of the normal domestic electricity supply possible, OSRAM developed energy-saving lamps for 12 V DC voltage.
Battery and solar operation
More possibilities, more mobility
Your benefits
- New compact fluorescent lamps for 12 V DC voltage
- High luminous flux: 600 lm – no difference in output to 220 V compact fluorescent lamps of the same wattage
- Can be switched on and off very frequently: as much as a minimum of 500,000 times
- Long average life of 10,000 hours*
* Switching cycle: 60 mins on, 15 mins off
Additional benefits of the OSRAM DULUX EL SOLAR 12 V DC VARIO
- "Dimming“ without dimmers
- By switching off and then on again within three seconds, the brightness is roughly halved
- Here electricity consumption is also reduced by more than half
- Can be switched on and off without restriction
Applications
- Developed principally for use with solar power systems
- But also ideal for mobile use with batteries (e.g. when camping or in the garden)
