Compact fluorescent bulb for general lighting
This Ushio CF13S/835 lamp delivers 800 lumens at 3500K with a CRI of 85, drawing 13 watts and rated for 10000 hours. The single-tube, 2-pin design suits fixtures that accept a GX23 base. Its 0.50 inch diameter and 7.08 inch overall length fit many compact downlights and task lights.
Check base type and ballast compatibility
Verify the fixture uses a GX23 2-pin socket and that the existing ballast supports a 13 watt compact fluorescent lamp. The bulb’s physical envelope measures 0.50 inch in diameter and 7.08 inches long, so confirm the housing provides sufficient clearance. Ensure the supply voltage matches the ballast rating before installation.
Replaces 13 watt CFLs with GX23 bases
This unit directly substitutes any 13 watt GX23 compact fluorescent with comparable lumen output and colour quality. The upgrade is worthwhile when the old lamp has reached its 10000 hour rated life or shows reduced output and colour shift. Buyers needing a different wattage, base type, or colour temperature should select an alternative model.
