Scanford 9W Pin Lamp
The Scanford Energy Saver Pin delivers high-efficiency illumination for professional lighting infrastructures. This 9W compact fluorescent lamp features a G23 base configuration with two electrical pins. It operates on 220-240V AC power through compatible magnetic ballasts. The design incorporates an internal starter and a noise-suppression capacitor within the base housing. This light source delivers a 6500K cool daylight output for clear visibility in commercial spaces. Procurement managers can acquire these units in bulk cartons of 50 pieces for large-scale maintenance. The discharge tube contains high-purity argon gas to facilitate efficient electron flow. This internal atmosphere protects the electrodes from premature degradation during frequent switching cycles. It maintains thermal stability across a wide range of operating temperatures from -15°C to +40°C.

These are the exact ones we use in our office corridor fixtures. Hard to find the G23 pin type in local supermarkets sometimes, but these Scanford ones fit perfectly and the light is very bright for 9W. Saved me a lot of trouble looking around downtown.

Good quality bulbs and they don’t get too hot even after hours. Delivery to Kisumu was fast.

I bought a few of these for the desk lamps in my study. The 2-pin G23 base is quite sturdy compared to the cheaper generic brands I’ve tried before. It gives a nice cool white light that isn’t harsh on the eyes when working late. Only giving 4 stars because one box was slightly crushed during transit, but the bulb inside was intact and works fine. Good energy saver for the price.
