{"product_id":"t8-led-tube-12w-137w-eq-g13-linear-daylight","title":"T8 LED Tube 12W 137W-eq G13 Linear - Daylight","description":"\u003ch5\u003eDescription\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis T8 LED tube is a direct replacement for the old linear fluorescent tube, fitted on the standard G13 two-pin cap. It draws just 12W yet puts out 2220 lumens, so it stands in for a 137W fluorescent tube while using a fraction of the power. The light is a crisp 6500K daylight tone with a 200 degree beam spread, throwing an even wash of bright, neutral white along its length rather than a narrow spot. Many of these tubes ask for the existing starter to be removed and the fitting wired as a ballast-bypass, so check the gear in your batten before installing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIts daylight output suits places where clear, functional light matters more than warmth: garages, workshops, utility rooms, store cupboards, stairwells and back-of-house areas. The wide 200 degree spread spills light across a working surface or down a corridor instead of pooling under a single point, which makes it a sensible choice over a bench, a workbench or a run of shelving. Being rated IP20, it is for dry indoor use only and should be kept clear of bathrooms, damp utility corners and any outdoor or sheltered-outdoor spot. With 185 lm\/W efficiency it is well suited to areas that stay switched on for long stretches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe tube measures 28mm in diameter and runs on 220 to 240V AC mains through the G13 cap. It carries a CRI of Ra 80 for honest enough colour in a task or storage space, and a rated lifespan of 40,000 hours to limit how often you are back up a ladder. The light source is integrated T8 LED in a white linear body, and the tube is non-dimmable, so it should be run on a standard non-dimming circuit. We stock this tube alongside other caps and shapes in the LED bulb range to cover most older fittings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCap \/ fitting\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eG13 (T8 tube)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBulb shape\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTube\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePower\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e12 W\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eReplaces\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e137 W incandescent\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLuminous flux\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2220 lm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEfficiency\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e185 lm\/W\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColour temperature\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e6500K (Daylight)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColour rendering (CRI)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRa 80\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\u003eRated life\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e40000 hours\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eDownloads\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8993\/3835\/files\/kanlux-33217-spec.pdf?v=1782113349\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eProduct Specification Sheet\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8993\/3835\/files\/kanlux-33217-datasheet.pdf?v=1782113348\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eRange Datasheet\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eFrequently Asked\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhich fitting does this tube need?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt uses the G13 cap, the standard two-pin base found on T8 linear fluorescent tubes.
