Compared to other lighting technologies, such as probe start metal halide or competitors' pulse start systems, Venture's Uni-Form systems provide more system lumens per watt, meaning more light for less energy. They also provide improved color uniformity for minimal color variation from lamp to lamp, faster warm-up and restrike and longer rated life. Venture Lighting's Uni-Form Open-Rated light bulbs also block nearly all damaging ultraviolet light with UV Shield Technology.
