ADL Supply Expert Application & Replacement Guide
This lamp has its ballast built into the base, so it screws straight into a matching socket with no separate ballast or starter. Philips lists it as equivalent to a 44 Watt Incandescent in light output.
It is built for 220-240 V, 50/60 Hz supply, as used in Europe and many other regions. It is not meant for a standard 120 V US outlet, so this lamp is for export orders or equipment that runs on 220-240 V.
6500K – Cool daylight - the bluest, brightest-looking white.
