LED tubes (T5/T8)

Check four things: the length of your fitting (600, 900, 1200 or 1500 mm), the lumens you need, the colour temperature and whether your fitting still has a ballast or starter. Then pick the body material and any extras such as a motion sensor.

Type A tubes work with the existing ballast in the fitting. Type B tubes are connected directly to mains and need the ballast removed or bypassed. Always check which one you are buying. If you are unsure, ask us before ordering.

Cool white is about 4000 K, a neutral clean white for offices and shops. Daylight is about 6000 K, a bluer white often used in garages, workshops and warehouses. Listed: 3000 K, 4000 K, 5000 K, 6000 K.

The best tube is the one that suits your fitting and needs: right length, enough lumens, the colour you prefer and an efficient driver. Aluminium versions run cooler and efficacy goes up to 200 lm/W on selected versions.

Typical LED replacements are about 9 W for 600 mm and 18 W for 1200 mm tubes. Our range runs from 9 to 25 W.

Replacing a tube in an existing fitting is simple, but changing wiring (for type B tubes) should be done by a qualified electrician.

Yes. Versions with a built-in sensor and hold time are available. Use the filters below.

A good LED tube with a quality driver runs without visible flicker. Hum usually comes from an old ballast, which type B tubes avoid.

Selected versions carry up to 5 years warranty directly from MiMiLed.
