GE, 2 Pin, Non-Integrated Compact Fluorescent Lamp, 16 W, 3500K, White

Biax™ 2D™ compact fluorescent lamps have been available for many years but GE is introducing the next generation of lamps under the name of 2D™ Watt-Miser™. These are available in 16, 21, 28 and 38 Watt in a wide choice of colour temperatures, these lamps are a direct replacement to existing 2D fixtures delivering the same life of 15,000 hours in case of 28 and 38 Watt but additional energy saving performance, 2D™ Watt-Miser™ lamps give similar lumen as the lamps they are replacing but up to 12% energy saving dependent upon ballast and wattage. Saving energy cost: 16W lamp runs on 14W*, 21W lamp runs on 19W*, 28W lamp runs on 24W* and 38W runs on 34W*. (* = When used with electronic ballasts).
