Looking for 25 watt equivalent full spectrum light bulb
I’m looking for a backlight for my monitor. I’d like a 25 watt equivalent 6500k bulb but can’t find one online. I bought a 13 watt (60 watt equivalent) and it’s waaaaay tooo bright.
I can wrap it in NDs or do something like that but I’m hoping I can find a simpler solution.
Anyone know where I might find a nice back light full spectrum bulb like that?
Thanks!

I bought mine on eBay. Expensive and slow shipping though, they didn’t want to send it over night by plane, and sent it by car. (UK to Norway)
I searched for either ‘6500K bulb’ or ‘fluorescent bulb’ or similar.

I bought two of these (the standard) for a 58″ plasma:

Might still have to use ND to be precise…

OTT lights are pretty good out of the box.

Thanks for the responses. The tube bulbs look like they would be much easier to wrap an ND around. I think that will work!
Any issues with them making a buzzing sound?
