A 70W metal halide LED replacement is a type of LED retrofit bulb designed to directly replace a 70W HID lamp in an existing fixture. This metal halide equivalent, typically a 25W to 30W LED, is the perfect upgrade for both Metal Halide (MH) and High-Pressure Sodium (HPS) systems. Making the switch to these LED HID retrofit lamps offers significant energy savings and reduced maintenance, making it the clear 70W HID equal for modern lighting.
Why Retrofit Your 70W HID Bulbs?
Making the switch from a 70W lamp to an LED retrofit provides immediate benefits.
- Significant Energy Savings: The primary metal halide equivalent uses over 60% less energy, leading to a direct reduction in your monthly electricity bills.
- Reduced Maintenance: A 70W HID bulb lasts about 10,000-15,000 hours. Our LED retrofit bulbs are rated for 50,000 hours or more, virtually eliminating frequent replacement costs.
- Superior Light Quality: Enjoy crisp, clear, instant-on light with better color rendering compared to the warm-up time and poor color of older MH and HPS lamps.
Common Applications for 70W Retrofits
70W HID lamps are typically found in lower-height applications, such as:
- Outdoor Wall Packs
- Security Lighting
- Bollard and Post Top Lights
- Landscape Lighting
