Having spent a long time searching; I have finally found a supply for 12 volt 18 watt fluorescent low energy bulbs with Standard Edison Screw (E27) bases that are of an excellent quality. Made by a respected manufacturer to a high standard I do not buy inferior goods.
The light produced for the power that they use cannot be beaten.
Do not be fooled by the low price, they are not cheap and nasty items.
The light is of the near daylight type and produces an output of around the equivalent of a 100 watt tungsten bulb. If you need a bright light then this is the one to go for.
These bulbs are ideal if you are working away from a mains electricity supply, they can be connected to any suitable 12 volt battery. Thanks to its internal circuitry each bulb uses just over 1A of power.
Keep them handy for power cuts also; they can be connected to any 12 volt battery to give a very good light at anytime and especially in an emergency situation.
A note for my many repeat order customers:- These are the very latest batch and have an improved specification, you will notice an even brighter light..
