I recently replaced a bunch of fluorescent tubes (T8 and T12) with Philips InstantFit LED tubes. They are affordable and they are easy to work with. Here is what to expect when buying InstantFit tubes for your fluorescent fixtures with electronic (not magnetic) ballasts. No wiring or electrical work necessary! Keep those ballasts in place!
Here is where to get them:
- 4-ft Daylight 5000K 10-pack: [ Ссылка ]
- 4-ft Cool White 4000K 10-pack: [ Ссылка ]
there are a lot more, so shop around until you find the perfect ones for you. Also, if you are buying a single bulb, try to get it locally or from Home Depot as you'll save a lot. If you are buying 8+ you can save by shopping online.
I was using the Deluxe Daylight (6500K) which are as white (almost blue) as you can get. I bought some in T8 and some in T12. I prefer the T12 tubes, but they aren't any different really.
Before the InstantFit I had fluorescents, the Philips Alto. I don't recommend them as they have dull, dingy color and they contain mercury. They are cheap though: [ Ссылка ]
