I did a quick search and discovered they come in a range of wattage from 15W to 70W - see related link for an example of one supplier (there were thousands listed when I searched for the product !)

What does G in fluorescent tube G13 mean?

What is a pin based fluorescent light fixture?
A pin based fluorescent light fixture is the type of fixture that takes fluorescent tubes. On each end of the fluorescent tubes there are contact pins. These pins are used to hold the tube in the fixture and to supply the voltage to the tube from the fixture's ballast.
What is the use of fuse in fluorescent tube?
Fuse is used to restrict the flow of current to the tube when it is supplied with very high voltage. Due to high voltage the tube may burst and even the electrical apparatus goes malfunctioning. Hence a resistor is used in the name of FUSE in the fluorescent lamp to prevent this sudden loss of the apparatus.
Why does Fluorescent bulb not light and end turns black?
In order to know why fluorescent bulbs turn black at the end, you need to understand how they work. Basically, when you turn on the lighht switch, the ballast sends a spark through the mercury-vapor-filled tube or bulb, depending on design. When it does this, it creates light by activating phosphors that coat the inside of the tube. Well each time the ballast fires, it creates emissions. These emissins materials then settle on the surface inside the glass. After awhile this material piles up. When it does this, the tube end turns completely black. Not only does the tube end turn black, but the accumulated materials pile up so high that it blocks the electrons that flow into the mercury. When this happens, you will notice the bulb or tube flicker heavily and then burn out.
What is the use of choke in the fluorescent tube?
The inductance primarily serves to limit current flow to the correct level for the tube. It also can be used during startup to provide an inductive 'kick' forming a higher-voltage pulse to start the lamp.
Where will a full range of colors be better seen in a room with fluorescent or outside under daylight?
Daylight will have a more complete spectrum. An interesting experiment is to hold a CD close to a fluorescent lamp. The CD will act as a primitive diffraction grating, and you'll see distinct blobs of colour - not a continuous rainbow spectrum. You're seeing the light emitted by the various phosphors in the fluorescent tube.
What are six main component of a fluorescent lamp tube light?
six main component of fluorescent tube light
How does 4 tube fluorescent work?
A four tube fluorescent luminaire is just 4 separate fluorescent lamp circuits in one fitting. Look up 'how things work' etc to see a fluorescent lamp circuit.
How many footcandles in a fluorescent tube?
444
What does G in fluorescent tube G13 mean?

Which substance is present in fluorescent tube?
Mercury and Phosphorous.
What is a pin based fluorescent light fixture?
A pin based fluorescent light fixture is the type of fixture that takes fluorescent tubes. On each end of the fluorescent tubes there are contact pins. These pins are used to hold the tube in the fixture and to supply the voltage to the tube from the fixture's ballast.
When should you replace a fluorescent light bulb?
when the tube ends blacken after failure of the tube heaters
You do not burn your finger when you touch a tube light?
If it's fluorescent, no.
What gas is in the fluorescent tube?
Usually it's mercury vapor.
What is life expectancy of fluorescent tube light?
3 years
What make fluorescent bulbs flicker?
A fluorescent tube will flicker is the temperature is cold or the fixture has a bad ground to the electrical system.
