Ah nice! One of the best 2D's and in GE's old maroon packaging

So glad I stocked up on these

These will outlast modern Chinese ones many times over

@Patrick: Totally, this is why I am focusing on getting the GE and Thorn branded 2D lamps. Sure I'd like to have some of the Chinese made ones because they make good ballast testers and use in applications where I wouldn't want to use the GE/Thorn lamps such as cheap instant start geared lanterns

These and the Thorns that came before them are going to be had to beat. Nothing else ever came close!

Just imagine the sheer service one fixture will see if all of these were to be used one by one
