A 48-inch, 18-watt T8 LED tube that replaces 32-watt fluorescents, ideal for offices, retail spaces, and warehouses where you want flexible installation and selectable color temperature.
This Nuvo Lighting T8 linear lamp offers Dual Mode Type A+B operation, so you can install it with an existing ballast or wire it directly to line voltage. The CCT selectable technology lets you choose from five color temperatures (3000K, 3500K, 4000K, 5000K, 6500K) on-site. The frosted, PET-coated glass is NSF rated, ensuring durability and safety in demanding environments.
