Sylvania 58996 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Sylvania 58996 fit a fixture that takes a double-ended R7s halogen bulb?
Yes, if the fixture is wired for 120V and sized for the T3 double-ended format. The 58996 is a T3 double-ended tungsten halogen lamp on an R7s recessed single-contact base, so it drops into the spring-loaded end contacts used in R7s work lights, floods, and studio fixtures. Confirm the fixture's lamp length matches, since R7s lamps come in several envelope lengths.
2) Can I run this 500W halogen lamp on a 277V commercial circuit?
No. The Sylvania 58996 is a 120V lamp. On 277V it would fail immediately. For a 277V fixture you need a lamp rated for that voltage, not this one.
3) How much light does a 500W R7s halogen put out, and will it be bright enough for a work light?
9500 lumens at 500 watts. That is high-output territory, which is why this lamp shows up in work lights, high-output flood fixtures, and stage or studio housings. Light is warm at 2950K rather than daylight white.
4) Is a 100 CRI halogen lamp good enough for color-critical display or photo work?
The 58996 is rated 100 CRI, the top of the scale, so colors render true with no shift. That is the main reason crews still specify halogen over LED for display cases, product photography, and studio work. Color appearance is warm, 2950K.
5) What part number do I order for the Sylvania 500W T3 double-ended halogen?
Order Sylvania 58996. That is the manufacturer part number for the 500W, 120V, T3 double-ended clear halogen lamp with the R7s base, and it is a single configuration, so there are no finish or wattage options to pick.
6) Is this lamp clear or frosted?
Clear. The 58996 uses a clear (CL/FCL) quartz envelope for maximum light transmission, which means a hard-edged beam and visible filament. If your fixture relies on a diffusing lens or reflector, that is what softens the output, not the lamp.
7) Can I use this 500W halogen tube with a dimmer?
Tungsten halogen lamps like the 58996 are resistive loads and dim on a standard incandescent/halogen dimmer, as long as the dimmer is rated for the full 500W load plus headroom at 120V. No ballast or driver is involved.
8) Do I need to avoid touching the glass when I replace one of these halogen tubes?
Yes. The 58996 has a quartz envelope, and skin oils on quartz cause premature failure at operating temperature. Handle it with a clean cloth or gloves, and let the old lamp cool before pulling it from the R7s contacts.
