Elektrox 125 Watt CFL Saving Lamp for the flowering phase
For the home grower who wants to save electricity, we have a wide range of CFL economy lamps at Growland. This model has a built-in ballast (VSA) and is especially suitable for the flowering phase due to its colour temperature of 2,700 Kelvin. CFL economy lamps are ideal for home gardeners who have limited space for indoor growing. Heat generation is minimal, making a CFL economy lamp a solution in the warmer months of the year and in the absence of a suitable exhaust system. If you use a CFL economy lamp, you should think about buying a reflector: a standard hammerhead shade is not stable enough to hold the lamp in the right position because of its weight (also because the VSA is built into the lamp). For best stability and light distribution, we recommend buying a Stucco reflector reinforced with cable strain relief.

Attention
Be extremely careful when screwing in a CFL, because the neon tubes that make up the energy-saving bulb are fragile. Never touch the glass of the bulb with your hand, the grease from your fingers is harmful to the life of the CFL! Use a cloth or gloves to screw in the bulb.
As mentioned in the description above: A standard hammer cap is not suitable because of the weight of the CFL saving bulb. The hammer cap can sag, which has a detrimental effect on the light distribution and can damage the energy-saving lamp.
