One of the smaller flood lights has been used in a wide variety of applications including areas like track lights, eyeball fixtures or in elevators, that's the 50R20 long life flood.  People have always wanted light bulbs to last longer and not have to change them so often, that's why we offer 50R20 floods in a 10,000 hour average rated life.  These are the R20 size bulbs which you might be familiar with, the ones you've probably bought for years in hardware stores and are 2 1/2 inches inches across the face.  These 50 watt versions are probably the most common of any wattage, but there are some other choices now as well including more energy efficient compact fluorescent.  If you have this kind of lamp in a retail situation, you may want to consider using a PAR20 halogen to replace it.  The light will be more intense and crisp while saving energy while giving you the same physical size bulb.  It also saves energy, in most cases you could replace the 50 watt R20 with a 35 watt PAR20.  We're not kidding when we say that the 35PAR20 will give you more light, it does while drawing less electricity. 

Incandescent lamps are the type that were developed earliest of any of the other kinds and some of these progressed into what we know as 50R20 long life flood light bulbs.  The long life version are the same physical size as other flood lamps but have multiple filament supports that protect against vibration and rough use.  If you're a commercial user, then R20 floods would be a great choice for many of the applications you have today.  Large commercial buildings are still a major user of this lamp where the labor to change out bulbs can get quite expensive.  The savings in this case can be quite extensive resulting in a quick payback on the higher cost of these bulbs.  If you have incandescent lamps anywhere in your building, they can be susceptible to vibration in elevators, slamming doors or machines being turned on and off.  In fact, one of the most common applications in a building is the elevator ceiling, you'll see them many times there and so you can see why vibration resistance would be essential.  Another savings to keep in mind, is that your maintenance people won't be changing bulbs as often, that means a labor savings as well.  With added labor savings, your people can take care of more pressing issues rather than a light bulb going out.
