Same fluorescent product design and Japanese goods are the same rated power of 32W, high output power of 45W. This is to reach 100lm / W above the high light efficiency, and achieve more than 1.5 times the light source 36W high luminous flux and the products developed.

Q: with traditional T8 36W fluorescent tube lighting use the same three-color light color and light color slightly different and why?

A: fluorescent luminous efficiency is better to use a phosphor. And high luminance, high color temperature sensing eye, so the different colors of light presented.
