Default 2D Lamps

The Medway Handyman was thinking very hard :
These 16w and 28w lamps come in either 2 pin or 4 pin - I wondered why? Seems
daft having 2 configurations for 1 lamp.


I think - not sure on this....

The 2 pins have (most of the control gear inside them, where as the 4
pin jobs all of the control is outside.


Will a 2 pin lamp work in a 4 pin holder?


No!
