NORTON SHORES, Mich.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--EarthTronics, dedicated to developing innovative energy-saving lighting products that provide a positive economic and environmental impact, introduces its new Type B 8’ Wattage and Color Selectable direct wire LED T8 with a double-end interchangeable base for direct replacement of T8 and T12 linear tubes operating on 120-277V for maximum energy savings and reduced maintenance costs.

Ideal for commercial, retail, municipal, industrial, school and university retrofit applications, the new 8’ foot LED linear lamp can be adjusted to 24, 32 and 40 watts delivering 3500, 4400 and 5500 lumens respectively. It features a flexible interchangeable FA8 or R17D base type ensuring a correct fit for several applications, while its shatterproof coated lamp meets Food Safety standards.

The new Type B 8’ linear lamp is color selectable at 3000K, 3500K, 4000K, 5000K and 6500K, and can be adjusted in the field by sliding its switch to the desired color.
