NEC T5 8W fluorescent tube

5000K daylight

[@worldwidehidcollectorusa3519]

What you have here is a 5000K halophosphate daylight fluorescent tube with a CRI of only 68 intended for use in Japan. It is a very common halophosphate color temperature in Japan, but is very hard to find in most countries outside of Japan. It is also good to note that 5000K 68 CRI halophosphate daylight fluorescent tubes are also commonly found in Brazil where they are known as color 750 or color 75. Did you import this Japanese NEC FL8N tube directly from Japan by using a proxy shopping service like buyee, jauce, fromjapan, or zenmarket?

Also, this color is very common in South East Asian countries (i.e. Malaysia, Indonesia, Philippines).

I need a 10w casing, last time I saw one that's the last one last month, yesterday I went there and saw nothing but piles of shit LED tubes, now I need to find one and I don't want to put connector block on their pins, it looks like a crappy shit light saber
