The Mysterious JDR lamps

We've all gotten used to HPL meaning "one of a family of lamps", but for some reason we're not as eager to embrace the JDR family. Maybe because they differ not only in wattage, but in spread and base type - and are less useful than HPLs in general. Six of them have proper ANSI codes.

There are 12 similar JDR MR16 lamps: 3 spreads x 2 wattages x 2 bases.

HPL lamps

Many voltages and a long life option make for many HPLs. Use them in any ETC Source 4 fixture, with the correct supply voltage. There are probably other options too.
