GE 46705 T5 Fluorescent Lamp Case

This GE 46705 case contains forty 28-watt T5 fluorescent lamps. Each lamp measures 45.2 inches long with a 0.6-inch diameter and a miniature bi-pin G5 base. The Ecolux Starcoat technology delivers 2900 lumens at a 3500K colour temperature. The lamps pass TCLP testing for reduced environmental impact.

Suits commercial relamping projects needing

Facility managers handling large-scale ceiling grid replacements will value the forty-lamp case quantity. Buyers needing dimmable ballast compatibility or instant-start operation should verify ballast specifications separately. Shorter fixture lengths or T8 socket requirements are not met by this 45.8-inch T5 form factor.

Miniature bi-pin G5 base fits only compatible T5

The G5 base is the single specification that determines fit. It accepts only fixtures wired for miniature bi-pin T5 lamps. Confirm the ballast is rated for 28-watt F28W/T5/835/ECO operation before installation.

Questions about this item

Will the 45.8-inch length fit my existing T5 fixture?

The lamp measures 45.8 inches end to end; verify your fixture accepts that nominal length before ordering.

How do I seat the miniature bi-pin G5 base without damaging the pins?

Align both pins with the socket slots, push straight in until the lamp clicks, then rotate a quarter turn to lock — forcing at an angle bends the .6-inch diameter pins.

When should I replace these 28-watt 2900-lumen tubes?

Plan replacement when output drops noticeably or flickering appears; the Ecolux Starcoat design maintains lumen maintenance longer than standard phosphors.
