Hi peeps, wot it is i dont no wot to look for on the bulb box when in the DIY stores. My mum has got some Philips Energy savers lyin about. theyre 20watt enery and 100watt light. On the top of the box its got 230~240v 50-60HZ B22 BC 15000h 1200 Lumen 140mA. I understand the 1200 lumen. I dont know actually what kind of bulb it is, it says on box LIGHT OUTPUT MEASURED ACCORDING TO IEC 969 STANDARD, COMPARED TO A 1000HOUR SOFT COLOURED BULB OF SIMILAR LIGHT OUTPUT. So does that mean that this is a soft coloured bulb? whats the best of type of things to look out for on the boxes in the diy stores? i know i need 2 different bulbs, 1 for veg and 1 for flowering so any peeps from uk if you could give me a wee hand it'd be greatly appreciated!! cheers! :jointsmile:
