2. Fluorescent-lamp formats - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluorescent-lamp_formats

   One of the first diameters of fluorescent lamps, with the 15W T8 and 30W T8 having been introduced in 1938. [3] The European energy-saving krypton T8 lamps were introduced by Thorn EMI during the 1970s. [4] The North American energy-saving argon T8 lamps weren't introduced until the 1980s. [5] T9 T29 1 + 1 ⁄ 8: 28.6 G10q quad-pin; G13 bi-pin

3. Electrical ballast - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_ballast

   Ballasts for sign lighting in the United States, are heavier duty than other ballasts because the cooler outdoor temperatures increase the energy required to start a fluorescent tube. They are sized based on the total tube length used. Typical European 230V series choke ballast 40W T12 or 36W T8 fluorescent lamps.

4. T5 retrofit conversion - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/T5_retrofit_conversion

   T5 retrofit conversion can maintain existing lighting levels with the higher efficiency of the T5 lamp. However, with kits that operates the lamp on the existing magnetic ballast, the efficiency drops and the lamp life is considerably shortened, as T5 lamps aren't designed to be operated on mains frequency but only on high frequency.

   A 230-volt LED filament lamp, with an E27 base. The filaments are visible as the eight yellow vertical lines. An assortment of LED lamps commercially available in 2010: floodlight fixtures (left), reading light (center), household lamps (center right and bottom), and low-power accent light (right) applications An 80W Chips on board (COB) LED module from an industrial light luminaire, thermally ...

6. Fluorescent lamp - Wikipedia

   These ballasts convert the incoming power to an output frequency in excess of 20 kHz. This increases lamp efficiency. [45] These ballasts operate with voltages that can be almost 600 volts, requiring some consideration in housing design, and can cause a minor limitation in the length of the wire leads from the ballast to the lamp ends.

7. Bi-pin lamp base - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bi-pin_lamp_base

   The suffix after the G indicates the pin spread; the G dates to the use of Glass for the original bulbs. GU usually also indicates that the lamp provides a mechanism for physical support by the luminaire: in some cases, each pin has a short section of larger diameter at the end (sometimes described as a "peg" rather than a "pin" [2]); the socket allows the bulb to lock into place by twisting ...
