GE Plug-In CFL Bulb 26W

This GE plug-in compact fluorescent lamp uses a G24Q-3 4-pin base and draws 26 W to produce 1800 lm at a 3500 K warm white colour temperature. It carries a rated life of 17000 hours and a colour rendering index of 82 for general-purpose lighting applications.

Suits fixtures with matching G24Q-3 socket

The bulb fits commercial or residential downlights, wall sconces or ceiling fixtures that accept a 4-pin G24Q-3 base and operate on a compatible electronic ballast. It is not for buyers who need a screw-in base, a different pin configuration, or a non-dimmable lamp for a simple switch circuit.

Check ballast compatibility and dimming control

Verify that the existing fixture uses an electronic ballast rated for a 26 W 4-pin CFL and that the dimming control, if present, is designed for fluorescent ballast-dependent operation. Confirm the physical length of 5 1/2 in clears the housing before ordering.

Questions about this item

What fixture base do I need for the G24Q-3 4-pin plug-in CFL?

The bulb requires a G24Q-3 4-pin socket and a compatible electronic ballast; it will not operate on line voltage or in a 2-pin socket.

Will the 26 W 3500 K output match my existing 26 W CFLs rated at 3000 K?

It produces 1800 lm at 3500 K, which is cooler than 3000 K lamps; colour consistency across fixtures may vary.

How can I confirm the bulb is operating at its rated 1800 lm after installation?

Verify the lamp starts rapidly, reaches full brightness without flicker, and the fixture ballast is rated for a 26 W 4-pin CFL.
