BC3 BASE BULBS

BC3 base lamps are identical to other energy saving compact fluorescent bulbs except it has three pins at the base instead of the usual two (see figure 2 above). They are installed in some new properties to prevent the occupier from reverting to the old incandescent bulbs. Unfortunately, because of the new design and the fact that they do not enjoy the subsidies that other energy saving bulbs receive, they are far more expensive to buy. With this in mind we have kept our margins to an absolute minimum on sales of these lamps.
