hi just wanted to ask..

what's the difference between this two?
https://www.lazada.com.my/products/10pcs-ph...s143539336.html

and this

https://www.lazada.com.my/products/10-pcs-p...s109242009.html

in terms of energy saving, quality of light and compatible with current casing?

Both are the same. All Ecofit series comes with EMP starter for retrofitting. If you read the Q&A in lazada, the 2nd link given does comes with EMP starter.
Do note that the 16w Philips LED is not worth simply its dim.
Get the 20w version, and you wont regret.

What if the ballast failed after using Phillips led tube for a while? Need to replace with traditional ballast again?
*
pull out wires from the ballast.
direct connect the 2 wires together with a connector.
done.

just do it while you are fitting the new led light. no point still using the ballast. ballast also creates heat and uses electricity too.

Linea is an integrated batten. The beauty is it’s slim and nice looking fitting.

The drawback is getting back same replacement in near future

Anyone know where can I get Philips Master T8 LED (Cool White 840)? One that sells in 2-4 pack, not 10.

Ecofit with 73 CRI feels kinda depressing lol



Also anyone have installed 4ft Philips Linea T5 to replace regular 4ft T8? (https://www.philips.com.my/c-p/310943166/linea-wall-light)
How is it going? is the brightness reduction gets too noticeable?

I plan to replace a 4ft T8 with 2 units of Philips T5 LED to get more even illumination, but I afraid the brightness would be problem.

Existing 3000lm brightboost bulb illuminated the room juuuust right.
Even I install 2 T5 LED to come with 2000lm, I afraid 1000lm short will be too noticeable.
