Product identity

This is a 26 W double compact fluorescent bulb with a G24Q-3 4-pin base. It delivers a 3500 K colour temperature and an 82 CRI for general indoor lighting. The rated life is 6000 hours. It suits fixtures designed for this specific pin configuration.

Interface limits

The G24Q-3 base only fits compatible 4-pin sockets; it will not work in 2-pin or other 4-pin variants. Operation requires a matching electronic ballast wired for 26 W double tubes. Mains voltage direct connection is not possible.
