Was this Answer Helpful ?If you use t8 bulbs you may encounter a problem with your ballast,may be better to use t12 as remmended.
Was this Answer Helpful ?They sell a T8 version, buy that one. It says T12 for a reason.
Was this Answer Helpful ?Not without Changing the ballast and sockets. It would be cheaper to buy a new fixture than convert this one.
Was this Answer Helpful ?No, it uses only T12 bulbs.
Was this Answer Helpful ?I am using T8 bulbs in this light, works fine.
Was this Answer Helpful ?No, it will fit as they both have the same pin fixture, but the ballast is different for each one, so it will not work even though it will fit.
Was this Answer Helpful ?T-8 bulbs will fit in this fixture because T-8 and T-12 bulbs have the same pin placement but the ballast are different. So the answer to your question is yes T-8 bulbs will fit but they will not work as this fixture has a ballast for T-12 bulbs.
