What is the difference between the RL and CL series?
The main difference is Light Output. The RL lamp has a higher lumen output per foot at 120mA than a CL series lamp. This result is achieved by the use of a patented internal reflector that is used within the interior of the RL Series lamp. This reflector was specially formulated to harness the light being generated by the electrodes towards a predefined linear aperture. The result is a higher lumen output per foot without having to over-drive the lamp with transformers or ballasts greater than 120mA. Greater light and longer life is the result of using a RL series lamp from NSI. 12.
