(20 Pack) Sylvania 20306 - 13-watt T4 compact fluorescent bulb(20 Pack) Sylvania 20306 - 13-watt T4 compact fluorescent bulb Review
This is a generic T4 fluorescent bulb, made in China. However it is a perfect replacement for my burnt-out bulb.As far as I can tell, all T4 bulbs are 13 watts, So, your only choice is choice is between "bluish" (cool white), neutral white, or "reddish" (warm white). But no color temperature is specified or hinted at for the Sylvania 20306. In fact the 20306 is a "neutral white" (with a color temperature of 4100K). The 20335 (also available) is "warm white" (reddish, 3500K), while the 20309 (also available) is "cool white" (bluish, 5000K). The "neutral" or "cool white" is best for desk lamps. For a makeup lamp you might prefer "warm white".
Since the bulb is fluorescent, it produces very little heat compared to my other desk lamp---a halogen. 13 watts, even fluorescent, is only moderately bright---in my opinion about the right brightness for a desk lamp when working with a computer. I use my halogen when I need a brighter lamp.
Like all fluorescent bulbs, the T4 bulbs contain mercury vapor. Be careful not to break your old bulb, and dispose of it carefully. As a safety measure, I smear a little silicon grease Permatex 22058 Dielectric Tune-up Grease - 3 oz. on the electrical contacts before installing fluorescent bubs, to be sure I can remove the old bulbs easily, without accidentally breaking them. Silicon grease is great for all electrical contacts, not only does it lubricate the contact, it prevents corrosion and actually improves the contact.
