GE fluorescent lamps have become a universal standard in office and other lighting applications. The characteristics of fluorescent lamps vary widely according to the lamp type. In general, fluorescent lamps have low operating costs because they're efficient, long living, high quality, and rapid starting. Fluorescent lamps can cost significantly less to operate over their lifetime than incandescent lamps.

Review: Lâmpadas Circulares com brilho mais suave - Tenho lustres com essas lâmpadas há muitos anos. Como elas estão em falta no mercado, precisei importar. No entanto, gostei muito dos modelos que vieram, pois possuem a luminosidade mais amarelada o que torna os ambientes mais agradáveis.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Maybe a silly question... I'm looking for a FC12T10 bulb.... What does the T9 and T10 stand for? And does it make a difference or will this bulb fit**
A: The T indicates a tubular design and the number behind it indicates the diameter in 1/8" increments.  So a T9 would be a 1 1/8" diameter tube and a T10 would be a 1 1/4" diameter tube.  If you are wanting a T10 the bracket that holds it may be too large of a diameter to safely hold the 33890.  Good luck.

**Q: How many pins does the connection have?**
A: No pins but two holes.

**Q: will this work on a electronic ballast?**
A: Yes, as long as the ballast is compatible with the 32w circline bulbs.

**Q: what does the cw stand for? mine is just fc12t9 no cw**
A: Hello, dcw2345. Something like the 'cw' on the description would stand for cool white as the type of lighting this bulb gives off. If yours does not have this, it could just be an older description code, since these change when we update manufacturing information. It does not actually change the product.
Thank you.
