Actually, they are about even. It changes from year to year as to which ones are more popular, but the swing is only about 3-4% difference each time, and some years the Long Life versions are the slightly higher movers, and some years it's back to the High output, short life ones that are in higher demand. Personally, I've never understood why anyone would choose a long life lamp. <snip>
On that tangent, I'd be interested to hear about a junior option.
Well, I've used S4Pars for a lot more house lights than ever for production lighting, and the existing mains dimming is especially enticing for these. And for watt reduction, hard to imagine a better place to start than house lights. And since an S4 par plus a 4WRD is less expensive than most acceptable LED houselights, I can't help but wonder.
I just double checked the CS total lumens, 2794. Half a S4 ParEA MFL 5536 (115x) and less if you want a warm white. I guess I haven't done enough with them to have that firmly in my head.
Spoken like a true career lamp manufacturer!
Actually, if you figure that the 300 hour HPL needs to be replaced on average 6.6 times more frequently than the 2000 hour HPL and the annual aggregate purchase from a big lamp manufacturer is only +/- 3-4% between the types, our conclusion must be that the overwhelming majority of sockets in the field are burning 2000 hour lamps.
