The Mini-Lynx Fast-Start from Sylvania is a compact fluorescent lamp (CFL) with its own self-contained control ballast within the base. This means that Mini-Lynx Fast-Start can be used as a direct retro-fit for less efficient incandescent light bulbs with E14, E27 or B22 lamp caps.

The most important features of Mini-Lynx Fast-Start lamps are:

• 80% energy savings, compared to standard incandescent light bulbs
• Very small dimensions, compared to standard incandescent light bulbs
• Instant ‘flicker free start’, with no switch delay

Available in a variety of colours — Homelight, Coolwhite and Daylight — and in a wide range of wattages from www.lightingworld.co.uk.
