T8 LED Tube 8FT FA8

Been looking to upgrade to LED lights for awhile, but was hesitant of deleting the ballast and re-wiring the fixtures. If that’s holding you back, don’t sweat it! My lights are single pin, 96” in length. The diagrams are confusing, but just remember for single pin, Hot (black wire) goes to one end of the light, and Neutral (White wire) goes to the other end. Really was super easy. I replaced T12 lights, which are 1.5” in diameter. The LED’s I ordered are T8’s, measuring 1” in diameter. Makes no difference, the single pins are the same. As soon as I saw the lights were out for delivery, I went to the shop, deleted the ballasts, and re-wired, ready to install the bulbs on delivery. After unboxing, I installed all 10, and found every one worked, despite other reviews. I will say, they are super bright. I got the clear lens lights, and for working in the shop it’s ideal, but the fixture installed near the tv in here is harsh to the eyes. If you’re not gonna look up, get clear, but if you have a wall mounted tv, consider the clouded tube. Exceptionally happy with my purchase and highly recommend the LED upgrade. Being an 8 foot light, there is some sagging in the middle, but right here on Amazon, you can purchase clips that go around the build and mount to the fixture to eliminate that problem. Will order them and install just to be safe, but overall I highly reccomend!

Very easy to install quality bulbs. I did purchase the center supports which corrected the minor amount of sagging. The bulbs are very bright and very light. Very quiet and no flickering. Bulbs come on immediately even in cold. Excellent online simple instructions for removal of ballast and wiring. The wiring was a little intimidating at first due to number of wires in my lights - but bottom line just hook up all wires from one side to hot and all wires from other side to neutral and everything works great.

I have now replaced 14 old 8ft fluorescent lights with these ONLYLUX LED bulbs, and the difference is incredible. My old lights took forever to warm up and were still dim. These are "instant on" and so bright that it looks like the sun is in the room. They were a breeze to install as a ballast bypass. If you are tired of flickering, dim fluorescents, don’t hesitate; these are a massive improvement!

We have these in an unfinished basement which is great for brightness, however, if you were going to put these in a bedroom, office, or living area I would suggest going with the cloudy covered ones. The clear tubes allow you to see each individual led light. You could get away with only putting in one led when the fixture takes 2

Obviously I was concerned about having 10 8' tube lights delivered via USPS. I figured the box would come mangled and all the lights broken. I couldn't get clear LEDs this size anywhere near me so I figured I need 4 and they're shipping 10, at least 4 will make it. The box came and it was sturdy and the lights were packed very well. I don't think the seller/manufacturer could do anything more to protect the lights during shipping. I opened the box and tested all 10. 3 didn't work. I contacted the seller and they responded immediately and offered a partial refund for the damaged lights. Very pleased with the outcome and the lights look great. My fixtures are LED ready so I didn't have to remove the ballasts, but there were instructions included that outline the steps to do this. If you've got older fixtures, you may have to take this step for the lights to work.

Could you please let me know how i can just order a few instead of a box? please and thank you.

My condo building have 2 levels of underground parking a total of 80 light fixtures each running 2 fluorescent bulbs with ballast at upperwards of 210 Watts per fixture. These lights burn 24/7. Our electric bill is ridiculous. I've been wanting to make this light change for a while now. I bought these as a 10 pk to test in the garages. So far the easy was simple bypass the ballast. I retro fitted the fixtures with new hardware. I only use 1 bulb per fixture because brightness was as good or better than the 2 fluorescent bulbs originally mounted. I'm concern about 2 things. Being 8 foot long whether the middle of the bulb possibly could create a sag because no middle bracket holders were included and the integrity of the light itself. I just installed them today so time will tell. UPDATE 3/5/23: Lights are still going strong. Out of 100+ purchase I've only had 2 lights flicker. I replaced them with the extra I bought and we are good to go. These bulbs helped to drop our light bill by 60% instantly saving us thousands. I'm definitely happy with these lights.
