DESIGNER® Cool White Fluorescent
The SYLVANIA DESIGNER® Cool White is one of our brighter fluorescents. Use where cool, crisp, bright light is desired and where you want to enhance cooler color tones. It’s great for the kitchen or bath, home offices, or cove . This bulb lasts a long 20,000 hours (that’s about 7 - 10 years, on average) and comes in 18", 1', 2', 3', and 4' lengths.
Cool White Energy Saver Fluorescent
This bulb offers the same quality of light provided by our regular Cool White Fluorescent, but comes in a 4-foot length.

Use only in fixtures specifically labeled for use with 4-foot, 34 watt bulbs. If unsure, please check with your electrician.)
