Questions & Answers
If my ballast is not compatible, can these tubes be used without a ballast?
Thank you for the inquiry. These tubes do require a ballast.
Are these bulbs campatible with a type p ballast?
Thank you for your inquiry. Please see compatibility chart. https://images.thdstatic.com/catalog/pdfImages/bb/bba74818-cd0e-4654-a730-6f95de936bb2.pdf
Do you have to have a ballast in the fixture in order for these lamps to work?
Thank you for your inquiry. Yes a ballast is required. No rewiring of existing luminaire necessary. Operates on instant start, programmed start and dimming ballasts.
Efficiency Details: Why is the bulb that uses a ballast 13W and higher lumens than the bulb that is direct wire (120Vac) and only 1800 lumens at 14W? How much power is dissipated in the Ballast?
Thank you for the inquiry. LEDs in general use a variety of internal components, one being the LED chips. These chips vary between products. The Plug and Play (Type A) lamp has different production and technical requirements than the Direct (Type B) lamp. While these appear to be the same lamp, they are different in the way the are manufactured causing power consumption to vary between the two. Also the Plug and Play (Type A) will actually consume additional power above the 13 watts listed as the ballast used requires power draw to run as well. The lamp itself only "consumes" 13 watts, but the ballast will use additional power. It varies based on the ballast, but a safe rule of thumb is around 2 watts for the ballast.
What type of dimmer switch do i use with these bulbs. Ive tried lutron rcl-153nl and another lutron dimmer and neither work. Is makes them flash
Thank you for the inquiry. Please review the compatibility chart below for recommended dimmers. https://images.thdstatic.com/catalog/pdfImages/bb/bba74818-cd0e-4654-a730-6f95de936bb2.pdf
Can these be used in existing T12 fluorescent fixture without any modification?
It will fit in existing T12 lamp sockets without modification. Compatible with most recent instant start electronic ballasts. If your fixture's ballast is old, or is an old magnetic ballast, you may need to upgrade your ballast.
I hate to say, but it depends on the type of ballast. Some led bulbs only work with instant light ballasts. Only bulbs marked “universal” work with all of the different ballasts. I had to buy several different versions before finding one that fit.
Are these bulbs shatterproof? I have them and they appear to be glass, not plastic. But I don't want to test their break-ability.
Thank you for the inquiry. This lamp is made of glass not plastic. They are not shatterproof.
A better question might be, "If for safety reasons I need to be sure I have plastic on the outside, is it a suitable solution (as with fluorescent lamps) to use a plastic sleeve to enclose the lamp?" And do you sell such a solution?
In the description numerous places it says "Dimmable", yet when you look at the manufacturers' installation sheet which is provided on the product as shown on Home Depot website, it CLEARLY says NOT FOR USE WITH DIMMER. So who do I believe?
Thank you for the inquiry. The bulb is dimmable with a compatible dimming ballast. The installation sheet is being updated.
