NOS GE Compax CFL Hardly a COMPACT fluorescent lamp LOL. Definetly a long-lasting lamp. Still in it's original box too! Interestingly, GE offered table lamp harp extenders free of charge if the lamp didn't fit in the fixture. I know for sure this wouldn't fit in the majority of the light fixtures in my house hehe. Plus it's so heavy it'd make a table lamp top-heavy. This is a really nice lamp before the cheapo electronic soft serve sundae lamp took over. Keywords: Lamps

I have the newer version of this, oh and I think HD still sells lamp harp extenders in the section with all the light fixture parts.

Wonder what year was this made?? I have first Westy CFL that made in 1982-83.

Made by Panasonic in Japan for GE. There should be a Philips style date code on the plastic ballast casing.

Joe told my 1989. The date code is "93" right above the work JAPAN right near the screw shell

93 means 9/87. The Panasonic branded ones had Philips codes though, because they had a joint venture with Philips for a long time.

Ahh thanks. Very Happy

Those twisters did not come out until 1997....I remember the days of those old CFL with their blink happy start ups!!!

Also they are indeed compact, I mean think about it, they are a LOT smaller than the F40T12 lamps....therefore compact! Wink

Today's pigtails are OVERLY DANGEROUSLY COMPACT!
