DIY F6T5 Fluorescent Strip Light Lit with Different Lamps
Here are some photos of my DIY F6T5 rapid-start strip light with my four F6T5 lamps. The first one is a GE F6T5/WW. It's an el-cheapo Made-in-China lamp. The second one is a Satellite F6T5/CW. It has to be the #1 worst halophosphate cool white lamp I have ever seen, it is even more ugly-green than normal and super dim! Third is a 2004 Sylvania F6T5/CW, it's not quite as bad. Last but certainly not least is a 1964 Champion F6T5/D, the best lamp out of the bunch. It is well-made and has a fantastic color!
