1450 Lumens 12 Watts T8 3FT Ballast Operated Fluorescent To LED Retrofit Lamp NaturaLED LED12T8/36FR14/840/IF
What this product is for
This ballast-compatible LED T8 tube is used to retrofit existing 3 ft fluorescent fixtures where a compatible ballast is already in place. It provides 1450 lumens of 4000K cool white light for commercial, institutional, retail, and back-of-house spaces.
Use for
Use for troffers, strip fixtures, and other 3 ft T8 fluorescent luminaires with a compatible ballast and G13 medium bi-pin lampholders. Common applications include offices, corridors, utility rooms, storage areas, and retail spaces where a straightforward lamp change is preferred over rewiring.
Avoid for
Avoid for direct-wire ballast-bypass installations, dimming applications, or fixtures with incompatible or failed ballasts. Also avoid where enclosed-fixture approval or specific ballast compatibility must be confirmed and is not documented for the installation.
Best for
Best for maintenance relamping where electricians or facility teams want a plug-and-play LED upgrade with minimal fixture downtime. It is also a good fit when keeping the existing ballast is more practical than converting the fixture to line-voltage LED tubes.
Installed in
Installed in 3 ft (914 mm nominal) T8 fluorescent fixtures with G13 bi-pin sockets and a compatible ballast. Suitable for damp location rated fixtures where the fixture itself is appropriate for the environment.
Why this product exists
This lamp exists to simplify fluorescent-to-LED upgrades without fixture rewiring. Compared with older fluorescent lamps, it reduces lamp wattage while maintaining useful light output and helps lower maintenance frequency with a rated life of up to 50,000 hours.
Compared with similar products
Compared with ballast-bypass Type B tubes, this Type A lamp installs faster because it is designed to operate on a compatible ballast. Compared with fluorescent T8 lamps, it typically reduces energy use and maintenance. As a rule of thumb, 4000K is commonly chosen for offices, utility spaces, and general commercial areas where a neutral white appearance is preferred. Actual performance depends on ballast condition, fixture design, and installation conditions.
