Here is an version of GE's Form 45H, this time with an aluminum domed reflector. It's slightly larger than the Form 46 and was designed for either open wiring or for feed provided through the bracket arm. Some versions of the Form 45 had external wiring lugs. This lamp is in the Form 45-H4 configuration with internal lugs. (For more background on the internal lug design, please visit GE Form 46.)
