The 116 watt and 135 watt lamps slightly larger A-21 (versus A19) envelope, brass base shells and 7000 hours! Most of the older traffic lamps were 105 w @ 130 volts, rated 4000 hrs.

My older GE lamp catalog pages show order codes of 19008, 19009 and 19010 for a GE 116A21/TS for these by Sylvania. https://www.1000bulbs.com/category/t...ntent=Sylvania


I still use MR16 halogen as kitchen lights, on much of the time, they last for several years each, powered by a 60 cy 12V 250 VA control power transformer.
