QUOTE(Skylinestar @ Nov 10 2022, 06:17 AM) Typical led T8 casing. No starter type. Philips EcoFit has the connection on both pins on one side, while "normal" LED tubes have the power on both ends of the tube. That's why it doesn't workI flip the tube the other way. Also not illuminate.    |

DON'T CUCUK LIKE THIS! Because the holes on each side are connected together
