Ushio 26W Dimmable CFL

The Ushio CF26TE/827 is a 26-watt triple-tube compact fluorescent bulb with a GX24Q3 four-pin base designed for electronic ballasts. It delivers 1800 lumens at a warm 2700K colour temperature with a colour rendering index of 82. This lamp suits commercial or residential fixtures requiring dimmable fluorescent lighting.

Sustained Output Stability

Rated for 10000 hours of life, the bulb maintains consistent lumen output over extended operating periods rather than fading quickly under continuous use. The electronic ballast compatibility ensures stable current regulation during long duty cycles. Dimmable operation allows light-level adjustment without reducing the expected service lifetime.

Replaces 26W CFLs

This unit directly replaces existing 26-watt triple-tube CFLs with the same GX24Q3 base and 2700K colour point. The upgrade is worthwhile when the installed lamp has reached its rated hours or when dimming capability is needed on a compatible ballast. It does not suit fixtures requiring a different pin configuration, voltage, or higher lumen packages.

Questions about this item

How much heat and power does the 26W CF26TE/827 draw when running continuously?

The bulb consumes 26 watts and produces 1800 lumens at 2700K with a CRI of 82, so heat output is proportional to its 26W rating during extended use.

What ballast or fixture must I already have for the GX24Q3 base to work?

You need a compatible electronic ballast designed for 4-pin GX24Q3 compact fluorescent lamps; the bulb is dimmable only when paired with a suitable dimming ballast.

Will this 2700K 26W bulb operate correctly in an older magnetic-ballast fixture I still use?

No, the CF26TE/827 requires an electronic ballast; it will not start or run properly on a magnetic ballast and may damage the lamp or ballast.
