F20T12 Fluorescent Tubes
Do you need lamps for your older T12 fixtures? Use these F20T12 fluorescent tubes. Operating on 20 Watts of power, F20T12 bulbs have a diameter of 1.5 inches and use a magnetic ballast.
F20T12/CW lamps with a 4100 Kelvin color temperature produce a cool white light that is ideal for reducing eye strain in offices, garages, and warehouses. 6500 Kelvin lamps emit a full spectrum light that simulates daylight. These lights can be used in areas that don't receive a lot of natural light.
As of July 2012, the manufacture of most T12s was banned to allow for production of more energy efficient lighting. T12 lamps that are exempt from this ban include cold temperature lamps and lamps with a CRI of 87 or higher. Manufacturers have been allowed to sell though existing inventory, however these lamps are getting harder to find. You may want to consider retrofitting your existing fixture to use LED T8s. If you are not ready to retrofit your fixtures to T8s, you should stock up on F20T12 CW lamps now while supplies last.
