* End-of-Life Protection:
Our CFL-PARs have built in End-of-Life Protection Circuitry to protect the lamps from overheating at the end of life. CFLs without this technology can potentially overheat to the point where the plastics containing the ballast begin to melt causing health and fire hazards. Integrated lamps combine a bulb, an electronic ballast and either a screw or bayonet fitting in a single CFL unit. These lamps allow consumers to easily replace incandescent lamps with CFLs. Integrated CFLs work well in standard incandescent light fixtures. This lowers the cost of CFL use, since they can reuse the existing infrastructure. In addition, incandescent light fixtures are relatively inexpensive.
