A 36-inch T5 LED tube lamp for offices, retail spaces, and task lighting, offering 3500K neutral white light with Type A+B dual-mode installation flexibility.
Upgrade your linear lighting with the Nuvo Lighting S19955 LED T5 Dual Mode Lamp, engineered for maximum installation flexibility and long-term efficiency. Featuring Type A+B dual-mode operation, these lamps can be installed directly with existing ballasts or converted to ballast-bypass for simplified maintenance and improved energy savings. Durable PET-coated frosted glass provides shatter resistance without sacrificing light quality, making these lamps ideal for offices, retail spaces, warehouses, and task lighting applications. With a wide voltage range, high efficacy, and long rated life, this LED T5 lamp delivers reliable, modern performance for both retrofit and new installations.
Best for
- Offices and cubicle areas needing bright, neutral white light for focused work
- Retail stores and showrooms where accurate color rendering (CRI 80+) matters
- Warehouses and industrial spaces requiring shatter-resistant, enclosed-fixture-rated lighting
- Task lighting applications like workbenches and inspection stations
- Damp locations such as covered loading docks or wash-down areas
Not ideal for
- Residential living rooms or bedrooms where a warmer, softer light is preferred
- Outdoor locations exposed to direct rain or moisture - rated for damp, not wet, locations
- Fixtures that require a screw-in (E26) base - this uses a G5 miniature bi-pin base
How bright is it?
1620 lumens - roughly equivalent to a 21-watt fluorescent T5 tube, providing ample light for task and general ambient lighting in commercial spaces. It's bright enough to illuminate a small office or retail display area.
Light color and feel
3500K neutral white - a balanced, crisp light that's neither too warm nor too cool, ideal for workspaces where clarity is key. With a CRI of 80+, colors appear natural and accurate, suitable for retail and office environments.
Sizing and fit
Measures 33.94 inches in length and 0.62 inches in diameter, fitting standard T5 fixtures with G5 bases. The slim profile works in most linear lighting fixtures, including enclosed troffers and strip lights.

Frequently asked
Is the bulb included? This is the bulb itself - it's a T5 LED tube lamp, not a fixture.
Is it dimmable, and what dimmer should I use? Yes, it's dimmable with compatible ballasts. For ballast-bypass operation, use a reverse-phase dimmer at 120V only.
Can I install this in a bathroom or outdoors? It's rated for damp locations, so it's suitable for bathrooms and covered outdoor areas, but not for direct exposure to rain or wet conditions.
What's the warranty? 5-year warranty.
Can I use this with my existing fluorescent ballast? Yes, Type A+B means it works with compatible ballasts (Type A) or can be wired for ballast-bypass (Type B).
