I have faced
many adversities during my hiking days in the Himalayas and the most common of
them was inadequate light. A zone completely detached from modern amenities but
being a traveller and a journalist I had to send reports to my agency. Every
single day it was becoming impossible to keep pushing with the candles and the
stock was also getting low. After completing a circuit, I came back to Nepal
and went to buy a portable lamp. The shop owner helped me with the H15 globe xenon gas lamp. The size of
the portable lamp was apt for me to carry in my rucksack. Moreover, the most
interesting thing I came to know about the thing was that the bulb type is used
mostly for cars. Although it was a bit high from my budget, I purchased it.
The rest of the
days I spent in the Himalayas, the service provided by the lamp was
unbelievable. As I was hiking through the wilderness and barren valleys, the
only shelter I had was my tent. Inside that, the portable H15 globe xenon gas lamp was the only light source. It was latest
in the market and was considered to be the most delicate and powerfully
designed and engineered light bulb till date. The characteristics of the bulb
were as follows:-
• Easily detachable sockets and can be
changed with a new bulb just by pulling and pushing.
• A long-lasting xenon gas-filled bulb and
very useful for long drives.
• High brightness quality power.
• H15 globe has a working voltage: 12V and output power: 15W 55W
• Long-distance coverage and clear
luminance.
The type is specialised
for an automobile but other than that, due to high power and clear glow it is
also used in many other sectors like- navigation lighting, garden and exterior
lighting, truck lighting, trailer lighting, camping, caravan lighting, etc. It
is the best light source I have used till date and I recommend to others to
keep their surroundings illuminated.
