Rare Polish Philips T8's

Postby Liam » Mon Jul 06, 2026 11:03 am

I've been speaking to Andy about Philips T8 tubes and it crossed my mind when we was chatting that i've never come across a Poland made Philips T8 36 & 58w in colour 35 Halo.
I am sure i've seen pictures of a 18w Polish Philips T8 tube in 35 but cant remember if it was on this site or on LG but i've never seen one in 4ft and 5ft in 35 -535?

Be strange if they never manufactured those sizes in Halo T8 as they most certainly did in all T12 sizes apart from 6ft and 8ft.

Was there ever any significant demand for this color ?

They might have preferred to order a few rebadged Tungsrams every once in a while than stop and flush their own production line

Now you mention it I don't recall seeing any either, seen plenty of French ones though!
