Residential and commercial lighting

This 26-watt plug-in CFL fits fixtures with a 4-pin G24q-3 base in homes and businesses. It produces 1800 lumens of neutral white light at 3500K. The bulb measures 6.4 inches tall and uses amalgam technology for stable output in any burn position. It is rated for 17000 hours of life.

Enclosed fixtures and outdoor use

The lamp is designed for enclosed indoor and outdoor plug-in CFL fixtures. Amalgam technology maintains lumen performance across a wide ambient temperature range. Short warm-up times deliver light quickly after switching on. TCLP compliance confirms regulated material limits are met.

Annual operating cost and lifespan

Based on three hours of daily use at 11 cents per kilowatt-hour, each bulb costs 3.13 dollars per year to run. The 17000-hour rating translates to roughly 15 years under that usage pattern. Buyers needing a different colour temperature or base type should consider other options.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 26 watt 1800 lumen version or a different wattage?

This model is offered as a single 26 watt, 1800 lumen option with a G24q-3 base; select it when your fixture requires that exact wattage and pin configuration.

What does the 1800 lumen rating mean for actual brightness in my fixture?

It delivers 1800 lumens of neutral white light at 3500K, suitable for residential and commercial plug-in CFL fixtures including enclosed and outdoor units.

Will the G24q-3 4-pin base work with my existing ballast and what does it limit?

The 4-pin G24q-3 base is designed for electronic ballasts in compatible plug-in CFL fixtures; it caps use to those specific sockets and prevents operation on mains voltage directly.
