Confusion re types of MR16 light bulbs

spoonbill
12 years ago

Can someone please tell me the difference between MR16 "open-faced" and "glass-enclosed" bulbs? Is there any advantage or disadvantage to either type?

We currently have both types in use and are having a phenomenal rate of burn-out, for some reason. I need to order them in bulk, but have to clue as to which I should get. Thanks!
