Product Description

Purpose-built for illuminated cabinet signs, channel letters, and lightbox displays, this 48 inch LED T8 replaces the high-output fluorescent tubes that keep storefronts and menu boards lit day and night. It runs at 18 watts — a straight swap for a 60W fluorescent — and puts out up to 2600 lumens, with the CCT selectable on the tube itself so one SKU covers 4000K, 5000K, and 6500K sign color requirements.

Wiring is direct-mains: as a Type B ballast bypass lamp, it works single-ended or double-ended, so pulled ballasts stay pulled and installers only touch the tombstones once. A 360° beam angle keeps the face of the sign uniformly lit edge-to-edge, and built-in 1kV surge protection helps the tube ride out the voltage spikes common on outdoor sign circuits.
