Lamp Installation—Ultra★Sport floodlights are shipped with lamps installed.

The double-ended metal halide lamp mounts transversely to a specific orientation by inserting the lamp ends into pre-focussed ceramic holders. It is held in place by stainless steel spring clips that snap/ lock in place. The electrical connection of the lamp is separate from the mechanical support, and is made by connecting the spade ended-lamp leads to the socket terminals and tightening with a screwdriver.
