8ft T8 LED Tubes: what to know before you order

Match the socket before you order: FA8 is the single pin base used on most slimline 8ft fixtures, and R17D is the recessed double contact base used on high output lamps. Tubes here run 40W to 72W, mostly Type B ballast bypass, in 4000K, 5000K and 6500K with frosted or clear lenses.

Contractor pricing by the piece or by the case, with freight quoted at real cost instead of a built-in free shipping markup.

If the old 8ft fixtures are rusted or yellowed, a new 8ft LED strip light often costs about the same as relamping. Shorter runs? See 4ft T8 LED tubes.

FA8 or R17D, which base do I need?

FA8 is a single pin on each end and fits standard 8ft slimline fixtures. R17D is a recessed double contact used on high output lamps. Check the old lamp or the socket.

Do 8ft LED tubes need the ballast removed?

Most 8ft LED tubes are Type B ballast bypass, so yes. The ballast comes out and line voltage goes to the sockets. Follow the wiring diagram for single or double ended.
