I used to have a couple of first-gen "energy saver" fluorescent bulbs
that were sent to me by (IIRC) National Power as part of some promotion
or contest. They were two-piece units -- you had the screw or
bayonet-fit ballast, and a separate, removable (via a 4-pin plug and
latch arrangement) fluorescent tube. So when the fluoro tube died, you
just bought a new one and swapped it over. Equally you could buy a new
ballast, but only as part of a set with a new tube...

Hi
I had a few of these. 100% of my failures were the base and not the bulb.
