Ideal for commercial fixtures

The GE 97609 F26DBX/841/ECO is a 26-watt compact fluorescent lamp built for plug-in fixtures that accept a G24d-3 two-pin base. It delivers 1710 initial lumens and 1460 mean lumens at a 4100K colour temperature with an 82 CRI. The T4 double-tube design measures 6.67 inches and offers a 10000-hour average rated life. It operates reliably in temperatures down to -9°C.

Replaces older 26W CFLs

This lamp serves as a direct replacement for existing 26-watt double-biax CFLs using the same G24d-3 base. The upgrade is worthwhile when the current lamp has dimmed below its 1460 mean lumen output or shifted from its 4100K colour point. Its 66 lumens-per-watt efficacy matches the original specification, so energy draw remains unchanged while restoring full brightness and colour consistency.

Fits G24d-3 sockets

Installation requires a compatible G24d-3 two-pin socket and a ballast rated for a 26-watt T4 compact fluorescent lamp. The 6.67-inch length must clear the fixture housing. The lamp frees maintenance crews from frequent relamping thanks to the 10000-hour life rating. It is not suited for enclosed fixtures lacking ventilation or for dimming circuits unless the ballast specifically supports it.

Questions about this item

Will the G24d-3 2-pin base fit my existing recessed fixture?

The lamp uses a G24d-3 2-pin plug-in base; it fits sockets keyed for that exact base type.

What is the correct way to insert the 2-pin base without bending the pins?

Align the keyed notches on the G24d-3 base with the socket slots and push straight in until seated; do not twist.

Rated life is 10000 hours; replace when light output drops noticeably or the lamp fails to start.
