Larson Electronics LEDT8-36-V1 18 Watt LED Bulb – 3 Foot T8 Lamp – Replacement or Upgrade for Fluorescent Lights

Description:

The Larson Electronics LEDT8-36-V1 18 watt T-series LED tube lamp is an excellent choice for upgrading existing T8 fluorescent lamp fixtures to LEDs as well as a direct replacement for our own LED light fixtures.

The 18 Watt T-series LED Bulb works with any T8 fluorescent light fixtures, can be configured for any T series fluorescent bulb fixture and requires no ballast for operation. Internally, you simply bring the black wire to one end and the white wire to the other. The polycarbonate lens diffuses the light and makes this bulb ideal for food safe environments as there is no glass. The aluminum housing serves as a heat sink and provides rigidity and strength for this LED bulb. These LED light tubes can also be plugged directly into fluorescent light fixtures with magnetic ballasts, which makes them an ideal retrofit for older T12 fluorescent lights with magnetic ballasts.

In fluorescent light fixtures with electronic ballasts, the operator needs to bypass the ballast and wire the power directly to one or both ends of the LED tube (black wire to one end and white wire to the other). Thus, this is an ideal upgrade for 3 foot fixtures with failed ballasts. These multi-voltage LED fluorescent bulbs run directly off any voltage ranging from 110 volts to 277 volts, including 120 volts, 230 volts, 277 volts, etc.

These are the first generation of our 18 watt LED tubes. Lumen output is 125 lumens per watt for a total of 2,250 lumens per bulb.

These LED fluorescent tube replacements can be used as upgrades or replacements to our own Larson Electronics.com explosion proof fluorescent lights, explosion proof paint spray booth lights as well as any other T series light fixture the operator already has in house. We have specially designed these for our explosion proof light fixtures, however, they can be used as replacements in standard fluorescent light fixtures. In our facilities, we replaced worn or spent fluorescent bulbs with these LED bulbs by removing the ballasts and bringing the white wire to one end the black wire to the other end of the LED tube.
