HID Retrofit Lamps
LED Corn Bulb Choices for Existing Fixtures
- Published 30W to 150W models with separate output ranges
- Base options that vary by model and power
- Type B direct-wire installation after ballast removal or bypass
Reuse with care
A lamp retrofit is a fixture-level decision
Base match
Check whether the socket is E26, E27, E39 or E40 and whether the selected power actually offers it. Do not choose from a family photograph.
Ballast bypass
The published Type B route connects to AC mains after the HID ballast is removed or bypassed. A qualified installer must own the wiring change.
Physical space
A corn lamp has side-mounted LEDs and needs clearance inside the existing reflector or enclosure. Compare dimensions and airflow before approving output.
Protection boundary
The published lamp is IP20. A covered or damp location requires a separately suitable host luminaire; the bare lamp is not a weatherproof fixture.

Make the host fixture part of the quotation
Seven model pages
The 30W to 150W series provides published output ranges and dimensions for comparison. VST can shortlist the relevant power before a fixture-matched sample.
Electrical review
Socket and ballast information can be checked against the Type B route early. The installer still confirms the converted circuit, earthing and local electrical requirements.
Thermal discussion
Lamp length, reflector space and heat path affect whether an existing fixture can be reused. VST can compare the model dimensions with the host enclosure.
Model evidence
Published pages give input, output range, base, IP and direct-wire information. Ask which documents apply to the quoted model and market.
Packing and repeat supply
Keep the approved power, base, label and carton details with the order so a later replacement uses the same lamp configuration.

Screw base
A socket name must match the exact model’s available base and provide secure mechanical engagement.

Direct wire
The old ballast must be removed or bypassed for the published Type B route; the installer verifies the final circuit.

Thermal clearance
Leave enough room around the lamp for its length and side-emitting body inside the host reflector or enclosure.

Useful light
Compare the model’s lumen range and the real fixture geometry rather than equating old HID wattage with final illuminance.

VST overview
The company video introduces VST's lighting work. For the base, wiring, output and IP rating, use the selected corn lamp page and the fixture conversion plan.
Customer view
The customer video shows a working relationship. A corn lamp still needs to be checked in the specific HID fixture you plan to convert.
