Product Identity

This GE compact fluorescent lamp carries part number 97610 and model code F26DBX/827/ECO4P. It is a 26-watt double-tube bulb with a 4-pin base designed for plug-in fixtures that use an external ballast.

Decisive Specification

The lamp requires a 4-pin socket and a compatible ballast to operate; it will not work in standard screw-in holders or in fixtures wired for 2-pin lamps. Voltage is determined entirely by the ballast installed in the luminaire.

Fit and Alternatives

This bulb suits maintenance teams replacing identical 4-pin CFLs in commercial recessed cans or wall packs. Buyers who need a screw-base LED retrofit, a 2-pin plug-in lamp, or a different colour temperature should look at other options.

Questions about this item

What does the 26 W rating mean once the lamp is running on its ballast?

The lamp draws 26 watts when operated on a compatible electronic ballast; actual system power will include the ballast's own losses.

What does the 4-pin base imply for ballast compatibility?

The 4-pin base means the lamp requires an external electronic ballast and cannot run on mains voltage or a magnetic ballast.

Will the T4 PL double-tube shape fit my existing recessed fixture?

The T4 PL double-tube design is compact; check your fixture's lamp-holder spacing and maximum overall length against the lamp's dimensions.
