Philips T8 Led has gone down in price in 2017. There is a higher lumen of 2100  for RM 17.50 that is coming soon. Noted most shop has not reduce the price following Philips recommended price. This includes big hypermarket.

The next question is where to get? There is one Philips authorised reseller in Kuchai Lama (opposite of De Tropicana condo, also nearby NSK), which item can be order if not in stock. Heads up they normally serves more to contractor, so don't expect very good service from them, i.e tell them what you want, pay and leave the store.

Where to get such price? I see supermarkets are still selling the old model for ~RM20.

The new 20w Brightboost T8 Led is available on lazada. It is priced RM80 for 5 pc (RM17/pc) which is lower than Philips recommended price of RM 17.50/ pc.
This 20w version output is 2100lm compared to 16w of only 1600lm. It also comes with LED starter or EMP. Avoid the 16w as it is dimmer than standard fluorescent.

Thanks. I found the same seller before but due to its location (not in Klang Valley) I'm hesitant to pull the trigger as shipping something so fragile from another state might be too risky. Too bad the new 20w is yet to be sold by Philips official seller on Lazada. I just bought a bunch of 16w ones but didn't know it's not that bright but will probably place it at areas where it's not necessary to be that bright biggrin.gif

16w

i bought from official philips merchant on lazada. i saw the one selling 20w but didn’t want to take the risk because the seller is not from klang valley so i’m afraid it will be damaged during the long distance delivery.

Maybe not related to tube but may I know how to differentiate the diameter of the bottom of bulb?

For example based on the photo, the bulb bottom looks quite big and I need the smaller one.

Read up on lighting fitting types here. That bulb employs an Edison screw type base called E27. What you're probably referring to could likely be E14. These two are common here.
