The 28W 2D Fluorescent Bulb 2 Pin produces bright and consistent illumination with a Cool White 7000K colour temperature. Its crisp lighting effect is particularly useful in rooms and commercial areas where clear visibility and functional everyday lighting are required.

With an output of approximately 2250 lumens, this compact fluorescent lamp delivers strong general-purpose brightness while consuming 28 watts. It is suitable for compatible fittings installed in bathrooms, kitchens, corridors, stairwells, utility rooms, offices and communal areas.

The distinctive 2D shape distributes illumination effectively inside a compatible light fitting. This makes the 28W 2D Fluorescent Bulb 2 Pin a practical replacement for an existing 2D lamp with matching wattage, dimensions, base type and electrical requirements.

A GR8 2-pin cap is positioned at the centre of the lamp. Before placing an order, safely remove the existing bulb and confirm that its base also has two connecting pins. The cap type and pin arrangement must match the fitting to ensure correct installation and operation.

A GR8 2-pin bulb must not be confused with a GR10Q 4-pin lamp. These versions use different bases and can require different electrical control gear. They are not directly interchangeable, even when the lamps have a similar 2D shape.

The 28W 2D Fluorescent Bulb 2 Pin is designed to operate with compatible fluorescent control gear. Existing fixtures may contain magnetic ballasts, electronic components or emergency-lighting systems. Check the fitting and ballast specifications before installing a replacement lamp.

The Cool White 7000K output creates a clean, crisp and highly functional lighting effect rather than a soft decorative glow. It is well suited to bathrooms, washrooms, kitchens, storage rooms and workspaces where strong visibility is preferred.

Its compact and relatively flat profile allows the lamp to fit inside many compatible round, square and rectangular bulkhead fixtures. The 2D format is especially useful in fittings where a conventional household bulb or long fluorescent tube cannot be installed.

The 28W 2D Fluorescent Bulb 2 Pin offers a rated lifespan of up to 10,000 hours under appropriate operating conditions. This dependable working life can help reduce maintenance requirements and the inconvenience caused by frequent lamp replacements.

This compact fluorescent lamp is suitable for compatible domestic, communal and commercial lighting installations. It can provide a convenient replacement for homeowners, landlords, facility managers and maintenance teams searching for a matching GR8 lamp.

For safe replacement, switch off the electricity supply and allow the existing lamp to cool completely. Hold the lamp by its plastic base rather than pulling on the glass tubes. Carefully align both pins with the fitting and avoid applying excessive pressure.
