`
`In 1965 the MR16 lamp design made its first
`appearance, in the form of this EJM Projector source
`invented by Emmet Wiley of General Electric USA. It
`was GE's halogen answer to the earlier Tru-Beam
`format of incandescent projector lamps, launched a few
`years earlier by Sylvania.
`
`The Sylvania lamp had one principal weakness, in that
`it was not a pre-focussed lamp. Owing to the variation
`in the shape of the vacuum-formed reflector and the
`further variation introduced when fusing the front lens
`to the mirror, the reflector rim could no longer be used
`as a datum from which to measure the distance to the
`optical focus point. The only remaining reference was
`its flat base, but there existed quite some variation in
`the distance from this to the focus point.
`
`GE overcame this limitation by first forming a high
`precision pressed glass reflector, and cementing a
`single ended halogen capsule into it. The capsule could
`be focussed to a high degree of accuracy in the mirror,
`and the reflector rim used as the reference plane. For
`the first time this separated the electrical and
`mechanical connections to the lamp - formerly both had
`been effected via the same base. Now it was possible to
`mechanically locate the lamp in the projector by the
`reflector rim, and make the electrical connection via
`flexible cables. Consequently the location of the optical
`focus point was precisely fixed from lamp to lamp.
`
`The first MR16 lamp was this EJM, employing a
`specular dichroic mirror. It was soon joined by EJN,
`differing only in its focal point. Later the EJS followed,
`featuring higher output with shorter life. The next
`major development in MR16 lamps did not come until
`1971, with the invention of the facetted reflector to
`attain better beam homogeneity.
