tube light
Long glass lamp
A tube light is a fluorescent lamp in the form of a long cylindrical tube, commonly used for overhead lighting in offices, garages, and commercial spaces.
The term is especially common in Indian and South Asian English, where it also serves as slang for someone slow to understand—the way fluorescent tubes flicker before fully illuminating: Don't be such a tube light.
