GE catalog notes for this lamp: Fluorescent lamp lumens decline during life. Based on 60Hz reference circuit. 4-Pin lamp minimum starting temperature is a function of the ballast. Most ballasts are rated with a minimum starting temperature of 50°F (10°C). Ballasts are also available that provide reliable starting to 0°F (-18°C) and -20°F (-29°C). Max. bulb wall temperature not to exceed 180°C. Consult GE sales representative for further information. Life ratings are based on operating the lamp on a high frequency electronic rapid start type ballast. GE caution notice 151: CAUTION – Lamp may shatter and cause injury if broken. Remove and install by grasping only the plastic portion of the lamp.
