The G10Q T10 Circline 32W 865 Daylight Circular Fluorescent Tube is a high-output circular replacement lamp designed for compatible fittings requiring a 32W G10q 4-pin Circline fluorescent lamp.

Producing a bright 6500K Daylight (865) light, this circular fluorescent tube provides clear, broad and even illumination from its ring-shaped design.

The 865 colour code identifies this lamp as approximately CRI 80+ with a 6500K Daylight colour temperature, making it particularly suitable for areas where bright, crisp illumination and good visibility are required.

This lamp is particularly useful for replacing older or increasingly difficult-to-find 32W/865 G10q Circline fluorescent lamps, including compatible Philips, OSRAM / LEDVANCE and other manufacturer lamps where the wattage, G10q base, colour temperature and physical dimensions match.

Technical Specifications

Compatible & Equivalent Lamp References

This 32W 865 G10q Circline fluorescent lamp may be suitable as a replacement for equivalent circular lamps requiring:

32W • G10q • 4-Pin • 865 • 6500K

OSRAM / LEDVANCE Cross-Reference

A particularly useful replacement reference is:

OSRAM / LEDVANCE L 32W/865 G10Q

The important specifications of this lamp family are:

32W • G10q • 865 • 6500K • CRI 80+

You may also find older lamps marked:

L 32W/865 C G10Q

or carrying an OSRAM / LEDVANCE product number.

Customers replacing one of these lamps should compare the G10q connector, physical diameter and fitting requirements before ordering.

Philips Cross-Reference

Another useful replacement reference is:

Philips MASTER TL-E Circular 32W/865

Philips identifies its version as:

TL-E 32W/865

G10q

865 / 6500K

Approx. 2310 lumens

Product Reference 928026386570

If your existing lamp carries a Philips TL-E 32W/865 marking, check the physical dimensions and G10q connector against this replacement.

Important: Manufacturer references are provided as an identification and replacement guide. Always confirm the wattage, base, colour code and physical dimensions of your existing lamp before ordering.

How to Identify the Correct Replacement

Before ordering, check the markings printed on your existing circular fluorescent tube.

For this product, look for:

32W + G10q + 865 + 6500K

You may also find:

32W/865

L 32W/865 G10Q

TL-E 32W/865

G10q

865

6500K

or another manufacturer's equivalent model number.

The combination 32W/865 is particularly useful when searching for a replacement.

However, always check the G10q connector and physical diameter as well.

What Does 865 Mean?

The 865 colour code is an important identification number used on fluorescent lamps.

8 = CRI approximately 80+

65 = approximately 6500K colour temperature

Therefore:

865 = CRI 80+ / 6500K Daylight

This is particularly useful when identifying an older fluorescent lamp because 865 may be printed on the tube without “6500K” appearing separately.

If your old lamp says 32W/865, it indicates a 32W fluorescent lamp producing approximately 6500K Daylight light.

865 / 6500K Daylight

The 865 / 6500K Daylight colour produces a bright, crisp and cool-white light appearance.

It is particularly suitable for areas where strong visual clarity is preferred, including:

• Kitchens
• Bathrooms
• Offices
• Workshops
• Utility areas
• Retail environments
• Commercial interiors
• Work areas
• Public buildings
• General-purpose ceiling lighting

Compared with 840 / 4000K Cool White, 865 produces a noticeably cooler and more daylight-like appearance.

Compared with 827 / 2700K Warm White, the difference is substantial, so customers replacing one lamp within an existing installation should check the colour code carefully.

G10q 4-Pin – Important Compatibility Information

Common Applications

The 32W G10q 865 Circline fluorescent lamp is suitable for compatible:

• Circular ceiling fittings
• Residential ceiling lights
• Kitchens
• Bathrooms
• Offices
• Commercial buildings
• Retail stores
• Workshops
• Utility areas

The ring-shaped design distributes light around the complete lamp, providing broad illumination from a compact circular fluorescent source.

Hard-to-Find 32W Circline Replacement

Traditional circular fluorescent lamps are becoming increasingly difficult to source as older fluorescent lamp ranges are phased out.

If your existing fitting remains operational, replacing the lamp with the correct 32W G10q 865 Circline fluorescent tube can allow you to continue using the existing fixture without replacing the complete light fitting.

Keep your old lamp until you have confirmed the replacement.

The most useful details to compare are:

32W • G10q • 865 • 6500K • Physical Diameter
