What is your favorite non-integrated CFL lamp? « on: August 15, 2022, 12:49:18 AM » Author: WorldwideHIDCollectorUSA
Does anyone have a CFL lamp that does not have an integrated ballast that they would consider to be their favorite?

My favorite non-integrated CFL lamps are the Panasonic FTL and FGL lamps made for the Japanese market because they are some of the very few non-integrated lamps that utilize integral diffusers that use decorative shapes such as bullets and globes.

I know it’s very basic, but the 13w PL-S/PL-C that run on a standard choke ballast. I’ve seen the 13w PL-S lamps in can lights many times growing up. The PL-C version too, but not as much.

They’re also the wattage/type of PL lamp I have the most of.

I also like the halophosphate FUL lamps because they are among the only non-integrated CFL lamps that use a halophosphate formulation.
