A sliding switch on the base allows selection between 3000K warm white, 4000K neutral white, or 6500K cool daylight before installation, letting you set the colour temperature to match the room's use without needing to stock three separate bulb types.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for commercial, office and residential spaces where traditional T8 fluorescent tubes are being replaced, the tube fits standard T8 twin-tube batten fittings. Installation requires bypassing the existing ballast — the tube runs on direct 230V mains rather than through a fluorescent starter. Once the ballast is bypassed, the tube clips into the existing lampholder sockets and the CCT switch is set before the fitting is re-energised. The 9W draw replaces a typical 18W fluorescent, halving the running cost.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe frosted polycarbonate tube diffuses the LED strip evenly along the 600mm length, avoiding visible hotspots or banding that can occur with lower-quality retrofit LEDs. The tube delivers 120lm per watt, which is standard for current-generation T8 LED replacements and significantly better than the 60-70lm\/W typical of older fluorescent tubes. The non-dimmable driver inside the tube provides stable output on standard UK mains without flicker.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eColour temperature choice allows the same tube type to serve different applications: 3000K for hospitality, retail display and residential spaces where warmer tones reduce harshness; 4000K for general office, workshop and corridor lighting where neutral white balances clarity with comfort; 6500K for technical work, inspection tasks and environments requiring maximum alertness and colour rendering precision.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWattage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9W\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLumen\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1080\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLamp Shape\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTube\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLamp Base\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eT8\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEnergy Rating\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eE\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eKelvin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eVariable\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColour Temperature\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eVariable\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDimmable\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNo\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLED or Halogen\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLED\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eFrequently Asked\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes this tube work in existing fluorescent fittings?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, but the fluorescent ballast must be bypassed first.
