Selecting the right lamps for your PowerBoss Eluma PDF Print E-mail
This guide will help you select the appropriate lamp for your Eluma fittings. To get a lamp that fits simply ask for a "55 watt, 4 pin, 840 tube, single ended", sometimes called a "PL tube with a 2G11 base". Beyond getting a lamp that fits there are other considerations, including lamp life, colour of the light and operating temperature to be considered.

Aura Unique-L Long Life

This is the Rolls Royce of lamps. Designed and made in Sweeden they combine special coatings (cathode protection and a protective layer for the phosphor coating) that give the lamps an extraordinary long life from 30,000 hours up to 48,000 hours. Once they're installed you won't be changing them in a hurry. There are two models, one for standard installations and another for cool areas. Colour temp of 3000 or 4000, Lumens 4800/?, CRI 85, 10 in a box. Prices reflect the quality. Click for a brochure.
