It still looks to have plenty of life left in it and being lit 24/7 and being a Philips should last a good while! Nice colour too!

Where is the fitting located? On a ceiling in a room or somewhere else?

Uh, ceiling, kind of. In the middle of a stairwell where it's usually 25°C+

That will last years and years

I agree with Danny, it may outlive British Steel lol!

For those thinking it's a shame not to add this to my stash, this tube came to me with a cap missing (no idea how, these are not known for being poorly attached!). I was going to skip it but thought I'd bodge on any old cap and put it to use instead, the replacement cap isn't even glued on lol

Nice, that should last a good few years Smile
