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Customers overwhelmingly praise these LED tube lights for bright, instant illumination and the ability to eliminate outdated fluorescent ballasts through straightforward direct-wire installation.

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.

Great LED tubes
Would RecommendGreat LED tubes for typical garage lights. Removed the ballast and rewired so that no more fluorescent tubes are needed. These are perfect. Side note: Online orders are shipped from out of state and took a week to deliver.
No More Ballasts
Would RecommendI am so glad I no longer have to deal with a ballast in the light and just replace the bulbs

No warning stickers included.
Would RecommendPurchased 4 bulbs, 2 separate packages. Neither included the Warning stickers that were to be included. I've emailed GE lighting to request them be mailed to me. We'll see. The 4 bulbs work fine. I rewired the fixtures, installed the bulbs and they work fine. I cannot comment on longevity of the bulbs.

4ft.LED type B tube light. direct wire/no ballast.
Would RecommendI like the fact that my local Lowe's and they were the best price in town for a name brand LED tube light. I like the fact that you can select brightness that you want right on the tube itself. They actually have a more natural shine to them and what I mean by natural is most LEDs just shine very bright and this one makes the colors of your stuff really pop and really enhances your visibility which is actually needed being an older person. This is just what I needed for my brand new light fixtur...

Turn On Delay
Would Not RecommendThese have about a half second delay from when I flip the switch to when they turn on. I did bypass the ballast, so it's just the bulbs. It's long enough to be noticeable and annoying.
Good change to eliminate Ballast "Buzz"
Would RecommendWorked great and ability to select brightness was wonderful

Check condition of bulbs before buying.
The product was fine in the end. I purchased 6 (12 bulbs). Some boxes were open. Two of the bulbs didn’t work. I found burnt pins on one and broken pins on the other. I returned the bad bulbs. Before purchasing the replacements I inspected them. Found more broken pins. The store person just put them back on the shelf. I did find some unbroken and was able to complete the job. The store cost me time I could have used productively.
