High wattage, double ended Metal Halide lamps are extensively used in sport lighting. Arklite MBIL lamps of 1, 1.5 and 2.0 kW belong to that family. These MBIL lamps are double ended, long arc Metal Halide lamps. We have learnt that MBIL lamps of SYLVANIA brand have been used to light up WACA (Western Australia Cricket Association) stadium in Perth.
What is not so well known is that, besides sports lighting, MBIL lamps are also used extensively in open cast mine lighting applications.
