Technical Specifications

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

1. What ballast compatibility is required for this 55w 2G11 tube?
This lamp requires a fixture with an electronic ballast specifically designed for a 4-pin 2G11 base and rated for 55W operation. It is not compatible with magnetic ballasts, lower-wattage ballasts, or direct mains voltage connection.

2. Is this lamp dimmable?
No, this 55w 2G11 tube is non-dimmable. Using it with a dimming system may cause flickering, reduced lamp life, or damage to the ballast and fixture.

3. What is the physical size of this 55w 2G11 tube compared to lower wattage versions?
While the 2G11 base remains consistent across wattages, the 55W tube typically has a longer overall length than the 24W or 40W versions. Always verify fixture compatibility before purchase.

4. Can I use this 55W lamp to replace a 40W or 24W 2G11 tube?
No, replacement must be made with a lamp of the same wattage as specified by the fixture and ballast. Installing a 55W lamp in a fixture designed for lower wattage may overload the ballast and create a safety hazard.

5. Where is this lamp best applied?
Its maximum output makes it ideal for high-bay industrial lighting, warehouse fixtures, large retail showrooms, manufacturing facilities, educational buildings, and commercial spaces with high ceilings requiring powerful, consistent illumination.
