GE 62173 U-Shaped T8 29W 3500K Fluorescent Tube Light Bulb Pack of 15

Pack of 15 U-shaped T8 tubes

The GE 62173 is a case of fifteen U-shaped fluorescent tubes, each rated at 29 watts with a medium bi-pin G13 base. They deliver a 3500K natural white colour temperature suited to general commercial and institutional lighting. The pack is intended for facilities that replace lamps in batches across multiple fixtures.

2500 lumens per tube with 29-watt draw

Each lamp produces 2500 lumens, providing ample output for standard office, retail or corridor installations where U-shaped T8 fixtures are specified. The 29-watt rating keeps energy use moderate, but the fixed lumen level means the tubes cannot satisfy high-bay or task-lighting demands that require significantly higher output.

Ecolux low-mercury design for cooler operation

The Ecolux construction reduces mercury content and helps the lamps run cooler than older high-mercury equivalents, contributing to lower fixture temperatures in continuous use. Fluorescent technology inherently produces a faint ballast hum, so completely silent environments may notice background noise. Power draw remains a steady 29 watts per tube under normal ballast operation.
