Pink CFL
I believe they were selling them as a special (as it was in front of the enterance of Lowes) to support Breast Cancer Foundation. Don't let the picture fool you....it looks like its lightly tinted....but when you turn it on...REALLY PINK! as in pretty hot pink!  It was pretty close to my Westinghouse Pink F15T8.....at first when I got it I thought it would be cheap...but I was wrong...it's pretty rich! Worth getting!

Strange that the RoHS logo appears in the box. RoHS is an european standard, and this lamp is an american lamp of chinese manufacture.
The variety of the colors of general purpose fluodscent lamps (Not including the hollow cathode signs) in Israel are different from the US colored fluorescents, mainly with the phosphors types.
Colored fluorescent lamps are available in Europe and Israel in T8, all types of T5s and all types of CFLs. The colors that available in Israel today are: Yellow (2700K triphosphors fluorescent that colored yellow), Green (Calcium Tungstate+colored glass), Pastel whitish green (Calcium Tungstate only [Its radiats also in the cyan, orange and red in addition to its main green narrow band, and there is also the yellow and blue mercury lines]), Blue (SrCaBaMg Chloroapatite+glass may either colored or not without changes in the color), Deep red (Not different in phosphor and glass then the american version, very rare today), Red (Yttrium Oxide+colored glass) and Pink (Yttrium Oxide+the green and the two blue mercury lines: the glass isn't colored)
Also, we have pink plant growing T8 fluorescent lamps, that are also common in aquariums, that uses Magnesium Germanate (Exactly the /C phosphor of old color corrected mercury lamps) and Barium Aluminate.

I believe this one is actually Phosphor type that makes the color because it goes REALLY pink...if you read the description.......it says at first I thought it was just the tint that makes it pink...but when I turned it on...WOW! I think the tint is just for decoration....

in USA we do have phosphor type colored fluorescent...they are more expensive though

"Everything's going... PINK!" (Only one guy know what this means! Don't worry he'll explain.)

Not for me! Mine is deep blue! Though I might get this pink CFL and see the color for myself and add it to the collection of colored CFLs.
RCM   [Oct 23, 2010 at 02:42 AM]
