Can a bulb be damaged or have a lower life by underpowering?
If yes, by how much?
Thanks for any info!

How about Xenon, such as a SF bulb?
OceanView said:Newb clarification question here--so, unlike a Luxeon, which I have read will generally increase in efficiency when underdriven, a non-halogen incandescent will drop in efficiency when underpowered?
