These are 12 volt MR16 style lamps, usually used in track lighting 
with fixtures that convert 120 vac to 12 vdc (Lowes or Home Depot).  
I have used them both at work (for a graphic artist) and installed 
some for my wife at home (color matching for hand sewn quilts).  In 
both instances, the Solux lamps approximate daylight very well and 
they have several different color ranges, measured in degrees Kelvin.

Long life and relatively inexpensive, they are a good point source of 
light.
