Is this the same format as a classic blacklight tube?
No, it's a compact lamp folded back on itself with a 2-pin base, shorter than a linear T5/T8 tube — it complements the longer formats already available at StrassElec for small fittings.
Can it be used to light a room?
No, that's not its purpose: the visible light it gives off is very faint; it's meant to reveal fluorescent materials, not to illuminate.
Is it compatible with my existing holder?
It fits a G23 (2 broches) holder with a matching ballast — check your fitting's type before ordering.
