32 Watt Full Spectrum Fluorescent Light Bulb / 4' Length, 1" (T8) Diameter / 5000K Color Temperature / F32T8 Full Spectrum

These lights seem to have the natural balance of full spectrum that I would expect, but the price is awesome for such a bulb. I am buying more - all my fluorescents will be replced with these. But also note: These require electronic ballasts, the old type won't work. But if you want the full benefit of full sprectrum - you must use electronic ballasts anyways or you will be defeating the purpose.

When I went to install two fluorescent light fixtures on the ceiling of my kitchen I knew I wanted something different than your everyday run of the mill problem laden fluorescents. I bought two T-8 fixtures from Lowes and then these lamps through Amazon. They have been running without a single bit of trouble or replacement for over six years now. The hum is not bad, certainly no worse than a typical fluorescent light fixture. I'm so glad I went with this type!!!

Ordered six, which arrived in a timely manner, but when installed one of the six didn't work. For the amount of money involved vs. the hassle of returning, I won't, but it does affect my review. Lights that do work are bright, not flickery or weird colors like so many fluorescents.
