Philips 325126 9-watt PL-S TUV Germicidal with 2-Pin Base Light Bulb

I use this as part of my aquarium system to control algae. My old one blew out. This on was a good price, speedy delivery, and installed easily.

Perfect replacement!

Ordered this because the ones made in China hav a very short life. Still woking fine.

It worked for a little while.

Great inexpensive bulb replacement for Coralife turbo twist UV sterilizer used in my saltwater aquarium. Easy to remove/install. Good for 6 month life span recommended in UV sterilizer.

It does exactly what its suppose to; works great. Only issue... it only lasts for about 4 months. So Ive decided to keep more in hand.

Bulb burned out quickly

I returned a set of TUV bulbs from a different manufacturer that didnt work at all. Tip! I didnt have a recommended part replacement from the Air purifier manufacturer. I ended up looking up the performance test data to see what TUV bulb was used during the testing.

Our backyard pond had turned pretty green. Drained as best I could and refilled it but the water still wasn’t clear. Installed a new Phillips 9watt UV bulb and within a couple weeks the water is crystal clear. Unbelievable but the bulb does what it’s supposed to do. Thanks Phillips!

Haven’t used them . I purchased cheap Chinese off brand ones that didn’t last very long .... so we will see .
