Self Ballasted Mercury Vapor Light Bulbs

Self ballasted mercury vapor light bulbs are an older technology of HID lighting but is still used in many places today. This mercury vapor doesn't run off a ballast and so it is called self ballasted. It simply runs on 120 volt circuits and has either a medium base or a mogul base. In this case it's 160 watt with a medium base which screws into any standard household light bulb socket. It gives off a very white light because of the deluxe white coating and the light itself. Self ballasted mercury vapor light bulbs aren't much more efficient than standard incandescent lamps but it does give you a white or light and is great for areas like outdoors where a white or light will work better.
