What does PAR mean?

PAR stands for Parabolic Aluminized Reflector. This means that CyberTech PAR bulbs have a reflective surface that helps produce a more controlled light beam. They are ideal for accent or spot lighting because of their narrow beam angles.

What are the different types of PAR bulbs?

PAR bulbs come in multiple different sizes indicated by the number following the PAR in its name. CyberTech’s PAR bulbs are offered in sizes ranging from PAR16 to PAR38, or 2 to 4.75 inches in diameter. The majority of their PAR bulbs have E26 screw-in bases, making them applicable for most standard fixtures.

What is the difference between an MR16 and a PAR16 bulb?

MR16 and PAR16 bulbs have a lot of similarities. For instance, they both have the same diameter as indicated by the number next to the bulb type: 16 (2.5 inches). CyberTech’s MR16 and PAR16 bulbs also both have durable aluminum housing to dissipate excess heat and protect them from outside damage.

However, MR16 and PAR16 bulbs have different applications:

  • MR16 Bulbs (Multifaceted Reflector) are best used when producing a focused beam and are commonly used for landscape lighting or in retail stores, museums, and galleries that require accent or spot lighting.
  • PAR16 Bulbs (Parabolic Aluminized Reflector) have the lens and the reflector combined in a single unit. These light bulbs are most often used in recessed and decorative light fixtures for beam lighting, recessed lighting, and movie lighting due to their ability to project directional beams using only a fraction of power.
