This Narva U-shaped fluorescent tube is a solid replacement for older lighting fixtures that take this less common shape.
It's a 40-watt bulb with a 2G13 base, so double-check that your fixture uses that socket.
The light output is a solid 3350 lumens, which is bright enough for workshops, basements, or utility areas.
It gives off a cool white light – rated as 20 Cool White – which is crisp and clean, perfect for task lighting.
The tube is 60cm (about 23.
6 inches) long, T12 diameter, and has a rated life of 10,000 hours, so you won't be changing it every other month.
It's dimmable and has an IP44 rating, meaning it can handle some moisture, so it's suitable for both indoor and covered outdoor use.
Made in Germany by Narva, so decent build quality.
It's a traditional fluorescent tube, not LED, so it does have that warm-up time and slight hum – but if you need a direct replacement, this is it.
