Full Spectrum Daylight for Maximum Clarity 

This 13-Watt CFL emits 900 lumens at 6500 Kelvin, providing a bright, full-spectrum daylight glow that enhances contrast, visibility, and focus. Ideal for offices, hospitals, laboratories, and task-oriented workspaces, this bulb delivers high-contrast, ultra-white illumination that reduces eye strain and improves precision. Designed with a GX23 2-pin base, it is perfect for task lighting, sconces, downlights, and under-cabinet fixtures. 

CFLs Were a Step Forward—But LEDs Are the Future 

CFL technology improved energy efficiency by offering 60-70 lumens per watt (lm/W), but modern LED alternatives now provide 80-150 lm/W, offering brighter, longer-lasting light with less energy consumption. 

Why Upgrade to LED? 

✔ Up to 86% Energy Savings – Reduce electricity costs with a more efficient light source. 

✔ Longer Lifespan – LEDs last 5-10 times longer, minimizing replacements and maintenance. 

✔ Instant-On Performance – No warm-up time, just full brightness immediately. 

✔ Mercury-Free Lighting – Environmentally friendly and safer to dispose of. 

✔ No More Ballast Failures – Many LED retrofits allow you to bypass the ballast, reducing long-term maintenance costs. 

LED Retrofit Options – A Smarter Lighting Choice: Upgrading is simple with three LED retrofit options: 

🔹 Plug & Play LED (Type A) – Works with existing CFL ballasts for an easy, no-rewire swap. 

🔹 Ballast Bypass LED (Type B) – Connects directly to line voltage, eliminating the need for a ballast. 

🔹 Hybrid LED (Type A+B) – Works with or without a ballast, providing long-term flexibility. 

Choosing the Right Shape LED Based on Burn Position 

LED plug-in replacements are designed for optimal performance depending on how your fixture is mounted: Base Up, Base Down, or Horizontal installation – Selecting an LED that matches your burn position ensures maximum light output, longevity, and energy efficiency. 

Kelvin Temperature Options for GX23 CFLs 

Selecting the right color temperature ensures the best lighting for your environment: 

• 2700K Warm White – Mimics incandescent lighting, ideal for hospitality and residential spaces. 

• 3000K Soft White – Warm yet professional, great for offices and retail environments. 

• 3500K Neutral White – A balance between warm and cool, ideal for workspaces and classrooms. 

• 4000K Cool White – Crisp, bright light that enhances focus and productivity. 

• 5000K Daylight – Natural, high-clarity lighting that reduces eye strain and increases alertness. 

• 6500K Full Spectrum – Ultra-bright, high-contrast light designed for laboratories, precision work, and industrial applications.
