It is commonly used in compatible bulkhead lights, ceiling fittings, bathrooms, hallways, corridors, stairwells, apartment common areas and commercial lighting installations.

The GR10q 2D 16W 4-pin fluorescent lamp is commonly used in compatible:
The flat square design allows broad illumination from relatively shallow ceiling and wall fixtures.
Before ordering, check the markings printed on your existing 2D lamp.
For this product, look for:
16W + 827 + GR10q + 4-Pin
You may also find markings such as:
16W/827/4P
PL-Q 16W/827/4P
or another manufacturer's equivalent model number.
The 827 colour code identifies the lamp's colour characteristics.
8 = CRI approximately 80+
27 = approximately 2700K colour temperature
Therefore:
827 = CRI 80+ / 2700K Warm White
This produces a warmer and softer light appearance than 3500K or 4000K fluorescent lamps.
This lamp uses a GR10q 4-pin base.
Please check the base of your existing lamp carefully before ordering.
A similar-looking GR8 2-pin 16W 2D lamp is not interchangeable simply because it has the same wattage and square shape.
For this product, check:
✓ 16W
✓ GR10q
✓ 4-Pin
✓ 827 / 2700K
Do not choose a replacement based only on the physical appearance of the lamp.
The 827 / 2700K Warm White colour produces a softer, warmer appearance particularly suitable for:
If you want to maintain the same light colour as your existing lamp, check whether 827 or 2700K is printed on it.
