PFT plug-in compact fluorescent light bulbs are equipped with specialized pin bases that are specific to the CFL’s wattage to ensure that it is matched up with a proper fixture containing a compatible ballast. Because these special pin bases are only manufactured on energy-saving light bulbs, PFT CFLs are a great retrofit option for utility rebates because incandescent bulbs cannot be used in these specialized fixtures.
This 9-watt PFT CFL replaces a 40-watt incandescent light bulb and saves up to 75% on energy costs. It has a bright white 3500K color temperature and must be used in a fixture that is compatible with its G23 base.
