alistermorton Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 Many lamps of different wattages use the same GY9.5 two pronged ceramic base, for example. The 1kW lamp from a cantata will fit in the holder of a minim (max rating 500W). So just because it fits it doesn't mean it's ok. 1kW lamps generally come in a GX9.5 or G22 format, and therefore cannot be fitted into a lamp holder designed for a GY9.5 lamp, such as to be found on the Strand Minim range. Yes, true, I misread the holder type. The point still stand though that several wattages share the same base. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
