Technical

Philips Master Line ES halogen EcoBoost lamps use IRC technology

this enables a lower wattage lamp to be used with no loss of light output.

Philips Master Line ES halogen spotlights are direct replacements for standard 12V MR16 Spotlights

there is no need to replace or change the transformer.

How does this work?

Its easy really, IRC = Infra Red Coating, the coating covers the capsule or burner insulating the lamp.

For the lamp to operate at its optimum it needs to be at a specific temperature.

As the lamp is insulated the power required to reach this temperature is now reduced

this is why a lower wattage can be used to achieve the same power output.
