Wanted: Philips, Osram, or Sylvania "stick" CFL « on: August 30, 2023, 10:39:39 AM » Author: Maxim
I am looking for stick CFLS, like the Philips Genie. Any and all go; I'm just looking to relive some memories of the house I moved away from, which had MANY of these lamps.

There were some even available for 127V operation in Brazil and a couple Latin American countries, not just 220V-240 for the European market. Here are some 110V-130V Osram stick CFL lamps for use on Brazil’s 127V domestic voltage supplies even though that country also has 220v supplies for domestic use as well: https://produto.mercadolivre.com.br/MLB-3749816860-kit-10-lmpadas-fluorescente-compacta-15w-865-110v-e27-osram-_JM#is_advertising=true&position=9&search_layout=stack&type=pad&tracking_id=886f7936-adc1-4de4-806b-0eec3a067ccf&is_advertising=true&ad_domain=SEARCHWEBMOBILE_LST&ad_position=9&ad_click_id=MTUyNzZjYmUtMjJkYi00ZmI3LTg3ZWEtN2VjYTdlOTgzZTM5 Here are some 127V Brazilian Philips Genies I found: https://produto.mercadolivre.com.br/MLB-1120433895-lampada-fluorescente-compacta-14w-127v-philips-kit-5-pecas-_JM#position=8&search_layout=stack&type=item&tracking_id=fd811559-afb5-42a8-9725-f32c5998f32a https://produto.mercadolivre.com.br/MLB-1277590452-lmpada-eletrnica-philips-18w-110-127v-_JM I recommend using a forwarding service like shippn.com if you really want to get those lamps shipped to the USA.

From what I see, these lamps look quite different than Philips Genie lamps and the Osram “stick” type lamls since these are 13W preheat PL CFL adapters. You could certainly get the PL adapters if you want them, but if you are specifically looking for the European style Osram and Philips stick CFL lamps and have no access to a 240V outlet or a 120V to 240V step up transformer, see about finding a shippn.com host so that you can get those Brazilian 127V lamps shipped to you in the USA via this shippn link: https://www.shippn.com/en/shop-from/BR However, you might have to wait for a while since the current Brazilian hosts are currently unavailable. If you want the lamps sooner, you could certainly ask some of our Brazilian LG members to help with shipping to the USA.

Thank you! Though, do you know of any Ikea stick CFLs made by Megaman? We had imported Osrams, Megamans, and Ikea CFLs in my old home mainly, maybe Ikea lamps would be easier to source? Thanks again!

Just wish it was E26 base, but I guess! Thanks! If you find any more, please let me know.

I think your best bet might still be to contact one of our Brazilian LG members to help you with importing the linked Brazilian market 110V-127V E27 base lamps to the USA since I can’t find any other stick type CFL lamps that use an E26 base at the moment that are designed for 120V supplies at the moment.
