8W/16W 12v fluorescent lamp Specification

24mm deep, Polarity protected with Integral switch

Using a high efficiency inverter, the fluorescent lamp produces very high levels of light for the power consumed. A recess at each end allows installation without lens removal, and the clip-on design means that tubes can be replaced without removing or dismantling the light. The switch is sunken into the lens to minimise height.

The fluorescent lamp is available in 8-Watt and twin 8-Watt (16-Watt) versions.
