About

Specifications & Features

This 8-foot (2400mm) LED tube is a practical, energy-saving retrofit for older 8ft T12 fluorescent tubes—ideal for indoor office spaces where you need bright, reliable general and task lighting (with the option to also suit display areas). It fits into existing T8/T12-style fixtures, but you’ll need to remove or bypass the starter and ballast for correct installation.

Great for long runs in open-plan work areas and retail aisles where even, consistent light matters. In these work areas it delivers steady illumination across desks so screens and paperwork stay easy on the eyes. In shops the length of the tube helps light shelves evenly, improving product visibility and reducing dark spots between fixtures. That steady, low-maintenance performance keeps working and shopping areas comfortable without frequent bulb changes.

Use Case Ideas: How, Where & Why!

Open-plan office retrofits: Swap 8ft T12s in open-plan strips for bright 4000K task lighting; bypass ballast for direct connection and cut energy costs.

 

Retail aisle upgrades: Replace flickering 8ft fluorescents in supermarket aisles with 6000K daylight tubes for crisp product visibility and lower maintenance.

 

School corridor lighting: Provide even 4000K illumination along long corridors, improving safety and visibility between classes while halving power versus old T12 tubes.

 

Home garage workshop: Retrofit single-pin FA8 fixtures over workbenches with cool white light for accurate tasks and reduced heat output.

 

Warehouse packing stations: Install 6000K tubes above packing lines for bright, shadow-free inspection; ensure dry indoor placement per IP40 rating.

Installation Guidance, Tips & Tricks

Verify Fixture Compatibility: Confirm your fixture is T8/T12-style and the cap type matches (FA8 single-pin, or request G13 bi-pin variant) before installation.

 

Bypass Starter And Ballast: Before fitting the tube, remove or bypass the starter and ballast in the existing fixture to ensure correct operation.

 

Install For Indoor Use: Use this tube indoors in office spaces or suitable display areas, installing it into existing T8/T12-style fixtures as intended.

 

Select Appropriate Colour Temperature: Choose 3000K, 4000K, or 6000K to match warm, neutral, or daylight needs for general or task lighting.

 

Test And Maintain Diffuser: After installation, power on and check for bright, even output. Keep the polycarbonate diffuser clean to maintain light quality.
