Ushio BC9010 MHL-250 250W Metal Halide Bulb

The Ushio BC9010 MHL-250 is a 250-watt metal halide bulb designed for applications that require high-intensity, high-quality illumination. Metal halide technology produces light by passing an electric arc through a mixture of gases and metal halides, resulting in a bright, efficient output that is well-suited for commercial, industrial, and professional lighting scenarios. The clear finish on this bulb allows the full spectrum of light to pass through without diffusion, making it ideal for applications where maximum brightness and crisp light quality are priorities.

This bulb operates at 125 volts and uses a recessed single contact R7s base, a standard configuration that ensures compatibility with a wide range of fixtures designed for double-ended metal halide lamps. With an average rated lifetime of 500 hours, the BC9010 is built for environments where performance matters more than extreme longevity. As with all metal halide lamps, it requires a brief warm-up period to reach full output and a cool-down period before restrike. Backed by Ushio's reputation in the professional lighting industry, the MHL-250 is a solid choice for anyone needing reliable, powerful metal halide illumination.
