Reliable, compact incandescent T8 bulb for decorative and specialty lighting—delivers bright, warm light with simple installation. These traditional bulbs are being phased out in favor of LED alternatives that offer 15,000–25,000+ hour life, significantly lower energy use, cooler operation, and similar brightness (e.g., 2–3W LED T6/T8 equivalents with E12/E17 bases).
