Lamp Guide: General Information
| Maximum Overall Length (in inches)- includes the sockets
for incandescent bulbs and pins for fluorescent bulbs (MOL).
Lamp Diameter - Lamp diameter is expressed in eighths of an inch (1/8"). For example: an A21 bulb is 21 - eighths of an inch or 2 5/8" in diameter at it's maximum dimension (DIA). |
