4 PIN Fluorescent Bulb in Warmer colour range?

[weedb0y]

My building management has recently replaced fixtures in every apartment. I am all for saving energy but I hate the cool white look from the bulb.

Only catch is that the fixtures use 4 PIN commercial fluorescent bulb with color rating of 3200K. I am looking for a colour range that mimics more traditional yellowish/warm color, so that my condo wouldn't look like its part of a factory. ;)

I've looked in my local Canadian Tire, Walmart and even Home Depot and only 4 Pins that I can find are 'cool white'.

Where can I find warmer bulbs in Mississauga (GTA West) region? Any speciality stores?

Yup. Go into any Living Lighting (there's 2 in mississauga) and they'll call me and I'll special order the 'bulb' in 2700K. This is a much closer match to incandescent colours.

Thanks, could you provide any pricing info?

Sorry, I can't. It's up to the retailer to price it based on their policies. I couldn't even give you a ball park.
