yup thats a standard PAR type bulb.. not a DE bulb though anymore. a lot of halogens and MH are in this configuration. going to be good for small tanks but useless on larger ones unless you buy a lot.. only have a 12X12" coverage with any reasonable PAR levels.

I hate to be disagreeable , but upon looking at the picture, I see a PAR type of bulb that has been converted to hold a DE bulb. As to the coverage, I think you are right. There would not be any decent light spread.
