FAQ
-
Will this fit my fixture?
If your existing tube is a G5-base T5 HO tube around 1149mm, this is a direct swap.
-
How does this compare to the 28W HE tube of the same length?
Both share the same 1149mm length and G5 base, but this 54W HO tube gives roughly 80% more light output at the cost of higher running wattage — choose it where maximum brightness matters more than efficiency.
-
Does this need a starter?
On conventional ballast fittings, yes; on electronic ballast, no separate starter is needed.
-
Which colour temperature should I choose?
830 for hospitality, 840 for general commercial use, 865 for task areas wanting the brightest, whitest light.
