Replace with diff driver? Coz the driver usually the culprit.
You need to invest in a good driver with low EM, high PF

H-glory brand, 20w. Don't know what brand is that. Cost me RM 18 each.

Usually it’s the product specs on wattage, power factor , liken output, lifetime and CRI.
EM rating usually not shared unless you requested for test report

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?

Plastic type.

Yeah, mine without bypass starter. They had to remove the ballast and rewire the whole thing.

Hard to see from the image alone.
If got brochure,maybe easier.

What if the ballast failed after using Phillips led tube for a while? Need to replace with traditional ballast again?

Durable yes but probably not until 20 years for my case. If not faulty, it might be noisy

thank you. I can't find 20w in Lazada and I also can't find any electrical supply shop in Bangi or Kajang or Dengkil who sold this 😅😅😅

If you guys looking for Osram Substitube Advanced 21W T8 tube, let me know. Available in 6500k and 4000k. Come with replacement choke.

This tube doesnt affect radio signal like some cheap tube. For 4ft is RM48. 2 ft is RM38. Min 5 pcs/ order

Hi. Need help of you guys.

Where can I find Philips Ecofit T8 Warm White type as it is not available in some of the shops. I'm from Penang.

Planning to buy one to fix in my kitchen.

Thanks.

Fix T8 LED Tube Warm White on kitchen ceiling.

Planning to save electricity and make less maintenance.

All the rooms and hall use Philips Ecofit T8 Cool Daylight.

Toilet use Ledus T8 Tube Cool Daylight.

Thanks.

Both same lumens. Ledus more brighter. As Ledus got 2ft available on my area so put both them in the toilet.

For Philips Ecofit is the 16w type.
For Ledus is the 10w type

Philips - 4ft
Ledus - 2ft

My current light type is the normal fixture with ballast and starter.
Take out existing starter and tube.
Replaced with the new starter and tube.

To fix into existing fixture, the tube light AC input must be position on the left side. Opposite side won't work as the tube light will blink. Trying to find warm white T8 as not all the shops carry this type with starter. Will get the 20w because 16w no warm white.

Thanks

If you are in serious retrofit campaign with extra budget, and want do it right; I would advise against installing Philips Ecofit. You will might end up with disappointingly dim room compared to previous fluorescent tube.
Go for Philips MASTER instead. Its lot more efficient and produce better light quality.
For comparison on (nominal) rated output:

Philips Super80 (traditional, green cap premium fluorescent tube)
36w, 3200lm, 82 CRI

Philips Ecofit
16w, 1600lm, 73 CRI

Philips MAS LED HO(High output variant)
14w, 2100lm, 83 CRI
Side by side comparison T8 840. MAS LED HO (left) Philips Super80, HF Ballast (Right). Dont have Ecofit tube at this moment but it perform worse than both on last comparison I made.



MAS LED rated only 2100lm, but the apparent brightness is still higher than 3200lm traditional fluorescent, due to directional beam nature of LED light, which increase its delivered (effective) lumens.
I can't say for other brand, but I believe they wold perform same or worse than Ecofit for the same nominal wattage.

The catch is it is much more expensive, cheapest I get was RM42/unit (vs RM10/unit for Ecofit), and since this tube is not targeted for consumer, its rarely sold in retail shops nor in non-bulk units.

Hi, bright enough to cover the whole room?
Mine is 16W. Still acceptable.

Heard of one china brand LED T8 which is FSL.
Which my condo is using for parking lot and around the building.
This tube doesn't need starter. I wanna buy got starter wan so I can know whether can work or not.
Wanna buy the warm white but only have the 20W only and I'm not confident to order online.

If you are planning to install other LED Tube that uses starter.
The Philips EMP Starter can be use for other type of T8.
Tried the Philips EMP Starter to LEDUS T8 and vice versa still works.

Now gonna find one shop to get the LED Starter Fuse as my LEDUS T8 Starter missing out from the box.

Thanks.

You can find out the Led DC voltage and drive it with battery or a power supply.

Need some skill to do.

2 way. Either use power supply to check what voltage or find out the component spec and running circuit.

No skill, just throw it away.

Just installed 4 feet LED T8 tube lights = 24W/7000K = brighter than old 36W fluoro lights = no hurt eyes reading on white paper. Cost me RM15 per set, ie tube and bracket, from nearby hardware store = no need ballast and starter.

Anyone know how to wire up 2 separate LED lights, eg for a large living room.?

Sorry, only got a possible link, no photos because too much of a hassle to post one here.

An electrical lighting shop nearby my house also got sell 4-feet LED T8 frosted tube lights rated at 30W/7000K for the same price of RM15 per set = very bright because inside got more individual LED bulbs = consume more electricity.
....... Also got 22W/6500K ones for RM10 per set but not as bright as the 24W/7000K ones. You may also be able to buy clear tube ones = but the LED bulbs are glaring to the eyes if at 7000K brightness.

I also bought 2-feet 11W/6500K ones for the bathrooms. Same price of RM15 per set.

So, I recommend either 24W/7000K or 30W/7000K frosted tube ones for large rooms like living room, kitchen and bedrooms.. For a normal living room, 6500K not bright enough.

It's 1920 Lumen for the 24W/7000K LED light.

I think both Lumen and Kelvin can be for brightness/whiteness, eg no point having 2000 Lumen(= very bright) at 3000K(= yellow light) if you want full white brightness. ....... https://www.earthled.com/blogs/led-lighting...lvins-and-watts - What is the difference between Lumens, Kelvins and Watts?

The included bracket for the LED tube light has 2 electrical wire connectors from the 2 end-holders of the tube, for connection to the Live and Neutral wires coming out of the ceiling or wall. The wire connections are reversible, ie you can connect the L & N wires either way, to complete the circuit.
