date anyone? done a comparison, much warmer that warm white tubes, look very close to a De-Luxe warm white to me, bit warmer still i recon, They look well 70's lit

These ar awesome! Dates 70s early 80s before EMI

oddly they are in EMI packets, and the box has EMI on it too? but old capital T Thorn only on the tubes

According to Lamptech, they're 726 (2600k).

My guess is they were produced at the time Thorn was becoming THORN EMI, hence the use of both. Packaging machine may have been updated but not the tube etching machine perhaps. Just a thought

Id think that too

Interesting, it would be like sylvania incandescent-fluorescent with same colour temp above
