| How do I determine the length of a fluorescent bulb? | |||
| Measure the bulb from tip to tip in inches. Common lengths are 6", 9", 12", 15", 18", 24", 48". The "T" number stands for the thickness of the bulb not the length. To determine that, it is best to write down the numbers stamped on the bulb. | |||

| TIPS | |||
| When installing a halogen bulb, be sure to wear gloves or use a tissue to touch the bulb. The oils from your skin will cause the bulb to burn out. If you have touched the bulb, wipe it off with alcohol before installing. | |||
