NOTE: The halogen PAR30 lamps are not the same length as the R30 lamps.The PAR30 lamp is shorter. This will cause the lamps to be set further back in fixtures that have a decorative can around the lamp. The PAR30/LN is a long neck version of the PAR 30 and is the same length as the banned R30 lamps. This extra length will bring the lamp to the front of the can.We recommend the PAR30/LN for all recessed ceiling fixtures that currently use incandescent R30 lamps.
