Satco S8334 18W Quad Tube Fluorescent Bulb

The Satco S8334 is an 18-watt quad-tube fluorescent lamp with a G24Q-2 four-pin base. It produces 1250 lumens at a warm 3000K colour temperature and a colour rendering index of 82. Rated life is 12000 hours. It suits commercial or residential downlights and wall sconces that accept plug-in compact fluorescent lamps.

Installation Notes for G24Q-2 Base

The lamp plugs directly into a compatible G24Q-2 socket designed for electronic or dimming ballasts. Align the four pins with the socket openings and press firmly until seated. Do not force the lamp; bent pins will prevent proper contact. Ensure the fixture ballast matches the 18-watt rating and quad-tube configuration to avoid flicker or premature failure.

Compatibility Check Before Ordering

Verify that the existing fixture uses a G24Q-2 four-pin socket and an electronic or dimming ballast rated for 18 watts. Magnetic ballasts or two-pin sockets will not operate this lamp. Confirm the housing can accommodate the 5.8-inch overall length. This bulb is not for buyers who need screw-base lamps, higher lumen output, or LED retrofit options.
