pc bulb question

[legion]

Can I use a 4 prong 55watt helios bulb in my 55watt, 4 prong GE power compact system. I found some cheap bulb and was just wondering and trying to save some money.

If they are the same style, YES! Germen-> 4 pins in a row or Japanese-> 4 pins in a square.

They are sigle row pins just like mine so they will work right

Yes, they're suppose to. I don't use bulbs that are the same as my fixture. They're are just the same wattage and style.
