Sylvania Dulux S compact fluorescent are the original type of compact fluorescent plug-in that started the whole energy saving lighting revolution. When they came out two decades ago, it helped people see that saving energy and getting adequate light could be accomplished. Sometimes they are referred to as twin tube bulbs in the field. They have a straight across 2 pin construction on the base. It makes it so nothing else could really be plugged into that fixture. Some of the fixture types that use the Sylvania Dulux S lamp include recessed lighting, hotel lighting, sconce lights and many more, too numerous to mention. These lamps are very energy efficient and operate on electronic ballasts these days. With the Sylvania Dulux S compact fluorescent light bulbs there are many options for superior light control like flood lights or wall washers used in retail. The most common colors seem to be the 4100K or the 2700K color.

Sylvania has been one of the major manufacturers of these types of lamps for many years. The energy efficiency on the lamp is excellent and they're used in places where the fixture might be very tight. The energy efficiency is so good that they sometimes are used in certain kinds of recessed lighting or other kinds of high output types of light. As mentioned before, there are several color choices these come in which include 2700K, 3500K, 4100K or 5000K which many people refer to as office lighting. There are appropriate places for each type of color depending on the interior you have. If you need a warmer feel that accent natural colors like wood or plants, the 2700K or 3500K would probably be the best to use. It will maintain and make those colors look even better. For offices, the 4100K has been the most popular as a clean, white light, good for all general purposes. The 5000K comes under the heading of full spectrum light, meaning they're more like natural daylight. This is desirable in places where high contrast is desired or people want a fluorescent light that is easier on the eyes.

This lamp has been used so extensively, that it's hard to think of places where it hasn't been used to replace less efficient incandescent lamps. It's a great all-around lamp and the life is excellent plus the color rendition is also very high so that whatever it lights, looks very good. GE and Philips also make the lamp and the variations are slight and sometimes the colors don't match up exactly.
