What Customers Are Saying

Customers overwhelmingly praise these LED tube lights for bright, instant illumination and the ability to eliminate outdated fluorescent ballasts through straightforward direct-wire installation. Most appreciate the three-position color temperature switch offering customization between 4000K, 5000K, and 6000K settings. Reviewers highlight significant energy savings, with some calculating nearly ninety dollars in annual electricity reductions. The majority value the cost-effectiveness and long-term reliability compared to replacing faulty ballasts. A small number report receiving broken bulbs or note the absence of warm white options, but overall customers strongly recommend these as a worthwhile upgrade.

Bright Lights with 3 settings.

My experience with the lights was stressful at first. My outdated fluorescent lights finally went out and needed them replaced. I thought it would be easy to find a replacement, but went I got to Lowes I realized I had no idea what type of light it was I needed. Then a helpful associate came to help me and recommended these LED lights and that I would have to upgrade by bypassing the ballast…what!? Luckily the associate explained exactly what I needed to do and I was able to do some intense e...

Rewiring heads up!

Would Recommend

Great replacement for conventional fluorescent bulbs - HOWEVER - read the back of the box - you MUST REWIRE the traditional shop light. It's really easy - just bypass the ballast- making each end separate (one end hot, the other end neutral). Despite two prongs at each end - they are actually connected together.

Good luck finding an answer on this inline fuse!

The product was recommended by Lowes, but after getting it home the instructions said that an inline fuse should be installed and not wired direct. After more than 2 hours of research I never did find out if that is true or not! Lowes salesman, said, "he had never heard of that." He recommended I buy a 20amp fuse from their automotive section, but I finally found out it needs to be a 1amp fuse and I could never find one anywhere. I finally installed an inline fuse from an automotive store with a...

Direct wire means no ballast required

Would Recommend

A great replacement for old florescent tubes. Pretty easy to by-pass the ballast with wire cutters, wire strippers and push-in wire connectors. Install the LED's tubes with the switch facing down. Turn on the light switch and wow, the difference is amazing.

Easy - but

Easy to install, just remove the ballast and connect the hot to one end of the tube and tne neutral to the other. Did not like the wiring diagram showing a fuse, if this is necessary one should be provided. No sticker provided to advise others "no ballast lamps" only.
