R7S is a special type of linear lamp base used with both halogen and LED light sources. The name R7S refers to the socket type itself. This base is typically found on rod-shaped (tube) lamps. R7S bulbs are most commonly used in outdoor lighting, floodlights, work lights, some tube-style fixtures, and decorative luminaires where a strong, even light is required.
R7S light sources are typically linear lamps or LED modules that provide high brightness in an elongated, straight form. Compared to traditional halogen versions, LED R7S lamps offer more energy-efficient operation and a longer service life, which can help reduce replacement frequency and overall energy costs.
Within this category you will find R7S bulbs in a range of wattages, light outputs and lengths, so you can choose the right option for your specific fixture and lighting needs. The linear design is ideal wherever strong, even illumination is needed along a wider surface – for example for outdoor security lighting, façade lighting, work areas, or highlighting architectural details.
When selecting an R7S light source, it is important to match the length and base type to your existing fitting, and to check the maximum wattage recommended by the manufacturer. Many LED R7S lamps are designed as direct replacements for conventional halogen rods, making it easier to upgrade to a more efficient solution, provided they are compatible with the fixture and any existing control gear.
You can also choose between different colour temperatures, from warm white for a cosier, more atmospheric light, to neutral or cool white for task lighting and security applications where clarity and visibility are priorities. Some products may offer dimmable options when used with suitable dimmers, allowing you to fine-tune the light level according to the setting.
A well-chosen R7S light source delivers stable, reliable illumination and can be a practical choice for both residential and commercial environments. Whether you are replacing a failed bulb or planning a more energy-conscious upgrade, this category offers a broad selection of R7S solutions so you can find a product that fits your fixture, light output needs and preferred lighting effect.
