Compare Brightness
Lumens
The amount of light that comes from a bulb, which has commonly been measured in watts. The more lumens, the brighter the bulb.Wattage
A measurement of the power delivered to a component of an electric circuit (allowing a one-ampere current to flow through the component under the pressure of 1 volt.)Bulb Shape
Bulb shapes are denoted with a letter, which describes the shape, and a number, which indicates the size. The number indicates the diameter of the light bulb at its widest part in eighths of an inch.Base
The part of the bulb that connects to the fixture and its power supply. Bulb bases are denoted with the letter E, and a number which indicates the diameter of the bulb base at its widest part in millimeters.Voltage
Indicates how much voltage a bulb can accept via the fixture it's installed in.Light Color Temperature
The relative color from a light source, measured on the Kelvin temperature scale. Warm light is lower in color temperature (2700-3000 K) and cool, blue light is higher (5000 K).Average Rated Life
The average amount time that a bulb is expected to last.CRI
CRI = color rendering index. This number, which can go from 0 to 100, measures the ability of a light or bulb accurately renders colors. The higher the number, the better, with most quality bulbs these days measuring at least in the 80s.Manufacturer IDs: view

Purchase of monorail
Verified Buyer
I am upgrading some low voltage track lighting. This monorail works best as the basis for my low current low voltage fixtures
Beautiful fixture!
Verified Buyer
This light fixture is expertly crafted and beautiful in the space we chose it for. The lighting is natural and complementary. The design is clean and modern. Perfect!
Perfect solution for my kitchen island
Most monorails are installed straight or curvilinear. I needed to create a right angle and I wanted it as close to the ceiling as possible. This monorail can be fitted with a right angle connector to form a perfect right angle. And if used with a pass through surface transformer, it only hangs 1" from the ceiling. Paired it with Piper Pendants and I'm very happy with the end result.
Beautiful problem solver...
Most overhead light fixtures create more glare than quality light. Using Tech Lighting monorail supported by stand-off brackets to get the lighting closer to walls and art objects makes a huge improvement to the feeling of a space. I've used it on 6 projects over the years. It's rigid enough to remain straight for standard runs, but can be bent to form curvilinear shapes. Expensive, but worth it. With an electronic transformer (either remote or surface), it can be used with low voltage Halogen or LED fixtures. You cannot mix them on the same run of monorail and there is some 'fine print' from the lamp manufacturers, but I did some research so I could change in the future as needed.
Tech Lighting
Buy the individual component parts that are high quality and look great. Much more expensive than the kits, but the lights and parts in the kits are very poor quality, look bad and aren't compatible with the good individual components.
