G E Lighting 66652 T12 Fluorescent Tube 40W 48in 2 Pack

Product Description

The G E LIGHTING 66652 is a 40-watt T12 fluorescent tube sold in a 2-pack, designed for garage and basement lighting applications. Each tube measures 48 inches in length and uses a medium bi-pin base for straightforward installation in standard T12 fluorescent fixtures. At 4,100 Kelvin, the color temperature delivers a cool white light well-suited to work environments. Each tube produces 2,900 lumens and carries a rated lamp life of 20,000 hours, reducing replacement frequency in high-use spaces. The 66652 is identified by the manufacturer code F40/GB/ECO/2P, reflecting its garage and basement application focus.

These tubes are intended for residential and light commercial settings where T12 fluorescent fixtures are already installed, particularly in garages, basements, utility rooms, and workshop areas. The cool white 4,100K output supports task visibility in low-natural-light environments. Electricians and knowledgeable facility maintenance staff typically handle bulk replacements in these fixture types. The 2-pack format is suited to single-fixture relamping where two tubes are required.

Installation Notes

T12 fluorescent tube replacement is typically performed by electricians or qualified maintenance personnel.

Confirm the existing fixture is rated for T12 lamps and uses a compatible magnetic or electronic ballast before installing. Dispose of spent fluorescent tubes in accordance with local regulations, as they contain mercury.
