Product Identity

The Ushio CF18D/835 is an 18 watt compact fluorescent bulb designed for general indoor lighting in residential or commercial fixtures. It delivers a neutral white output suitable for workspaces, kitchens and utility areas where consistent colour rendering matters.

Interface Limits

The lamp uses a standard T4 base and operates at 18 watts with a rated output of 1200 lumens at 4100 kelvin. Its colour rendering index of 82 provides adequate fidelity for everyday tasks but falls short of the higher values required for critical colour evaluation or professional photography.

Installation Notes

Installation is a simple push-and-twist action into a compatible T4 socket; no additional wiring or ballast replacement is needed if the fixture already supports compact fluorescent lamps. The main issue arises when the bulb is fitted into an enclosed or poorly ventilated fitting, which can reduce the rated 10000 hour life and cause premature dimming.
