1450 Lumens 12 Watts T8 3FT Ballast Operated Fluorescent To LED Retrofit Lamp NaturaLED LED12T8/36FR14/850/IF
What this product is for
This 3 ft (914 mm) LED T8 retrofit tube is designed to replace 3 ft fluorescent T8 lamps in existing fixtures where a compatible electronic ballast is already installed. It provides 1450 lumens of 5000K daylight output for general area lighting in commercial and institutional spaces.
Use for
Use for fluorescent-to-LED upgrades in offices, retail areas, schools, corridors, utility rooms, and similar indoor damp-location fixtures. This lamp uses a G13 medium bi-pin base and is intended for plug-and-play Type A operation with a compatible ballast.
Avoid for
Avoid using this lamp in fixtures with incompatible ballasts, in direct-wire bypass applications, or where a Type B or universal-input tube is specifically required. Confirm ballast compatibility before ordering or installation.
Best for
Best for maintenance retrofits where keeping the existing fixture and avoiding rewiring helps reduce labour time and downtime. The 5000K colour temperature is commonly selected for task-oriented and commercial spaces where a cooler, brighter appearance is preferred.
Installed in
Installed in 3 ft fluorescent strip lights, wraparounds, troffers, and other T8 fixtures that use compatible electronic fluorescent ballasts. Suitable for indoor damp locations where the fixture itself is rated accordingly.
Why this product exists
This lamp provides a simpler LED upgrade path for existing fluorescent fixtures by using the installed ballast rather than requiring immediate rewiring. Compared with legacy fluorescent lamps, it reduces relamping frequency with a rated life of up to 50,000 hours and lowers connected load to 12W.
Compared with similar products
Compared with direct-wire Type B tubes, this Type A lamp is typically faster to install in compatible fixtures because it is plug-and-play. Compared with 4000K options, the 5000K version gives a cooler daylight appearance. As a rule of thumb, cooler 5000K lamps are commonly used in utility, warehouse support, and commercial task areas, while warmer CCTs are often chosen for more occupant-facing spaces. Actual lighting suitability depends on fixture layout, mounting height, and site conditions.
