BALLAST COMPATIBLE (NO REWIRING)
The LED T8 lamp is the perfect plug and play retrofit solution to quickly save energy and maintenance costs. It can be installed with an electronic T8 ballast with no rewiring required.
BALLAST REWIRING
T8 lamps with single-side wiring receive power at one end only. Line and neutral wires connect to the same end, requiring non-shunted sockets.
BALLAST REWIRING
These T8 lamps are powered from both ends—line to one end and neutral to the other. Compatible with shunted sockets.
LED T8 U-Bend Bulbs
Illuminate your space with the T8 LED U-Lamp, a compact 2-foot solution engineered for high light output and maximum energy efficiency. Consuming just 13 watts while delivering up to 2000 lumens, this lamp is a smart, high-performance replacement for traditional fluorescent U-bend tubes, perfect for office ceilings, retail displays, and a wide range of general-purpose applications where reliability matters.
Built for modern retrofit flexibility, this U-shaped LED lamp offers consistent brightness and smooth, flicker-free operation. Its compact design fits easily into recessed fixtures and ceiling grids, helping to reduce visual clutter while delivering clean, even light in tight or structured layouts.
Installation Options:
Type A/B – Universal: This lamp supports both plug-and-play installation with compatible electronic ballasts (Type A) and direct-wire operation without a ballast (Type B).
This dual-mode functionality allows for quick, low-disruption upgrades today with the option to switch to a more efficient ballast bypass setup later, without replacing the lamp. It’s ideal for contractors, facility managers, or phased retrofit projects where infrastructure may vary.
Multiple color temperature options, from warm white to cool daylight, make it easy to match the light output to the mood and function of your space. Use softer tones for break rooms or lounges or choose daylight for task-heavy environments like offices or back-of-house retail.
With its long-rated lifespan, mercury-free construction, and energy savings of up to 50%, the T8 LED U-Lamp delivers a dependable, low-maintenance lighting solution. Whether you're modernizing a workspace or replacing legacy U-bend fluorescents, this lamp provides clean performance and future-ready efficiency in one streamlined package.
