ADL Supply Expert Application & Replacement Guide
The Sylvania Dulux S/E 5W/841 (NEMA Generic CFT5W/2G7/841) is primarily used by electrical contractors and facility maintenance teams for replacement in low-wattage 2G7 4-pin CFL fixtures — wall sconces, recessed ceiling trims, and surface-mounted ceiling luminaires where the compact 3.4-inch form factor and 5W input are the fixture's rated lamp specification. The 2G7 4-pin base is the electronic ballast interface for this Dulux S/E single-tube format — shunted lampholders where both socket contacts are internally connected are required. This lamp will not operate on magnetic ballasts designed for 2-pin Dulux S lamps; a compatible 5W 4-pin electronic ballast is required. Confirm your fixture socket is specifically 2G7 4-pin before ordering. Confirm 4100K cool white matches your existing installation color temperature before partial relamping.

Operation, Safety & Mounting Compliance
2G7 4-Pin Electronic Ballast Requirement & Shunted Socket
The 2G7 4-pin base is the programmed-start electronic ballast interface for Dulux S/E single-tube lamps — the four pins provide separate cathode heating connections that allow the electronic ballast to preheat both filaments before arc ignition, eliminating the integrated starter required on 2-pin Dulux S magnetic-start lamps. Shunted lampholders, where both contacts within each socket are internally connected, are required for this base configuration. The lamp will not operate on 2-pin magnetic Dulux S ballasts, and substituting such a ballast will result in non-ignition.
Mercury Content & Disposal
This lamp contains mercury and must be recycled through a certified lamp recycling program in compliance with applicable federal, state, and local regulations — do not discard in standard municipal solid waste. This product cannot be shipped to CA, CO, HI, ME, MN, OR, RI, or VT.
