Wanted to buy: circular fluorescent tube - posted by Vince Cholews, 8 April 2024

Can you help? I need a Road to Damascus moment. The circular tube in my desk light has burned out. Our local Mitre 10 has a big lighting section but they and two online shops have “successfully” provided the wrong size tubes. A lighting shop in Wellington says they don’t stock anything like this. Any suggestions where I could buy a replacement?

To be honest mate , all lighting is now going LED based.., you’re probably better off biting the bullet and getting a new LED lamp.
