LEDs drop in to replace filament lamps
New from Marl International is the 238 series of bipolar filament replacement bulbs
New from Marl International is the 238 series of bipolar, filament replacement bulbs. Delivering substantially longer life than traditional filament technology products, the LED lamps provide a fit and forget solution. Because the T6.8 slide base lamps last longer (typically over 100kh) they contribute to a reduction in overall maintenance costs, inventory levels and stock turnover.
