GE 12590 MVR70/U/MED 70W Metal Halide Light Bulb (6-Pack)

The GE 12590 MVR70/U/MED is a 70-watt metal halide light bulb designed for commercial, industrial, and outdoor lighting applications where high-output illumination is required. Producing 5,500 lumens from its 70-watt draw, this bulb offers a strong ratio of light output to energy consumption, making it an efficient option for retrofit and replacement scenarios in existing metal halide fixture installations. The oval (ED17) shape and medium screw base (E26) provide broad compatibility with common 70-watt metal halide ballasts and enclosed fixtures.

Sold as a 6-pack, this listing is well suited for facility managers and maintenance teams who need to keep spare bulbs in stock or replace multiple fixtures at once. As with all metal halide lamps, the MVR70/U/MED requires a warm-up period to reach full brightness and must be paired with a compatible ballast — it cannot be plugged directly into a standard socket. The bulb also contains a small amount of mercury, so proper recycling and disposal procedures should be followed at end of life in accordance with local regulations.
