Q: Can linear LEDs be used instead of T8 or T5 fluorescent lamps?

     A: Although most LED tubes have the same size as linear fluorescent lamps, the same cap, and may have similar light output, they do not have the same omnidirectional light distribution. Many equipped with LED lighting equipment, under the condition of the beam spread will be more narrow, will be reduced by 20% - 30% of the light output, for a glance concave groove with a reflector, especially the reflector with bat wing (wide distribution of fluorescence distribution, so when it comes to leds can reduce 30-50% of the electricity consumption and improve the efficiency of system, This must be taken into account.

        Lighting fixtures may need to be rewired and should refer to local electrical installation standards.
