Overview
Ditch your ballast and increase the longevity of your fixtures with Sunco's durable T8 LED Tubes. This T8 LED Tube has a clear cover and consumes only 18W yet is a 40W equivalent. Bypass the ballast on your existing shop light fixture to install this LED tube for long-lasting life. Specs: 50,000 lifetime hours, commercial grade 120/277V, 160 degree beam angle, 2200 lumens. Image shows the tubes in a classroom or large conference room. Customer review says As soon as I installed them I bought more
Ballast Bypass. When you ditch the ballast no extra wattage is drawn and you increase fixture longevity. It reduces your energy consumption and maintenance since no ballast replacement is needed. Please note that with Single Ended Power (SEP) tubes the pins on the non-energized or 'dead' end of the tube are only used to hold that end of the tube in the socket. You will need non-shunted tombstones. Images shows 3 task lighting examples: retail store, computer server room, auto manufacturing.
Easy Installation. 1. Shut off power. Remove existing tubes from your fixture. Disconnect all wiring from both sides of the ballast and remove ballast. 2. Cut the socket lead wires 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. You will only need one set of sockets for single-ended tubes (SEP). 3. Connect live and neutral wires (black and white) from power source to socket wiring (blue and red). Use push-in connectors or wire nuts that screw on to complete. Install your new T8 LED Tubes. Sunco T8s use non-shunted tombstones.
Sunco T8 Tubes are available in a variety of color temperatures designed to increase productivity. Task lights, like these, work well for workspaces, corridors, offices or retail spaces. Also in warehouse applications such as the large warehouse shown here. Sunco makes regular charity donations to worthy conservation organizations to support a larger green initiative at home and abroad. Sunco is based in the USA and is American owned and operated.
Fast install. Single ended power (SEP) avoids costly ballast replacement.

SHIPPING

I appreciate the fact that you added extra lamps in this order after several had been broken in the original shipment. It seems that the shipping company doesn't care how the merchandise arrives at the destination.

Easy-peasey

Took less than an hour to install six ballast bypass bulbs on 3 fixtures in the garage. Everything fit great and was very intuitive. A very enjoyable project with great results.

Terrific product

I have 3 fluorescent light fixtures in my garage and the bulbs have been very dim and constantly flickering for years. It was a real pain to go out into the garage to find something after the sun went down. I finally decided to do something about it. During my research, I discovered type A LED fluorescent bulbs that work without having to remove the ballasts. So, I purchased them and installed them, but they did not work. I finally determined that my ballasts were bad. Then I began researching Type B LED fluorescent bulbs, and I stumbled upon a Youtube video that used the Sunco lights and removed the ballasts. I followed the instructions and cut the ballasts out of my fluorescent light fixtures and ran the live wire across the fixture to only 2 headstones, leaving the other two without power (just to hold the lights in place). It worked like a charm! The lights are very bright and work every time! I highly recomend the Sunco LED fluorescent tube lights! You can't go wrong!

Parts for fluorescent to LED conversion

Exactly what I needed — bulbs plus wiring harness with non shunted tombstones for single connection bulbs. Discovered Sunco from a YouTuber who described the rewire and recommended Sunco. Ordered and received within days

Awesome upgrade for around the house

I installed these to replace old fluorescent lights that had a burnt out ballast. Rewiring was easy and these light just snapped right in and worked like a charm.
