Thanks for clarifying, I would have had to pull out my old physics book tonight to figure that out. You're probably right about the housing being universal design, that makes mass production easier. That said, the $35 10 watt is a good buy! I'll check out the Nite-Hawk "alignment groove" tonight to see if a standard MR11 fits without undue effort.
