EarthTronics Introduces Color Selectable T8 Hybrid Linear TLED Series for Plug-N-Play or Single- and Double-End Direct Operations in Retrofit Applications

Available in 2-, 3- and 4-foot lengths, the new easy-to-install UL Type A/B Hybrid LED T8 Series operates on existing ballast or is easily direct-wired for maximum energy savings and provides five color temperature choices

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 2-, 3- and 4-foot UL Type A/B Hybrid Linear T8 Lamp Series. This new series can be used as a “plug and play” solution on existing ballasts or easily installed direct wire as a single end or double end T8 lamp.

The flexible design of the A/B Hybrid Linear TLED Series allows for single- or double-end direct wire operation on 120-277VAC circuits to maximize energy savings. This series of linear T8 LEDs work with shunted and non-shunted sockets, dry or damp locations and enclosed fixtures. The hybrid versatility of these lamps also provides a plug and play solution that can work on electronic ballasts for easy adaptation and a fast return on investment.

Ideal for commercial, municipal, school and university retrofit applications, the new A/B Hybrid LED lamp is color selectable 3000K, 3500K, 4000K, 5000K or 6500K and is adjusted in the field by sliding the switch to the desired color. The linear LED 2-, 3- and 4-foot linear LEDs deliver 1150, 1500 and 1800 lumens with 220° beam angle and a CRI greater than 80 to provide the perfect replacement for T8 fluorescent tubes. It is engineered for high lumen maintenance over its 50,000-hour performance life.

The A/B Hybrid LED T8 is an excellent option for applications that require a fast installation with a ballast, as well as a backup plan if the ballast fails. To install, simply remove the existing fluorescent ballast, direct wire the line voltage and connect the direct wire. Since lamp holder modifications are not required, the final step is to run the black (load) to one end and white (neutral) to the other.

Suitable for damp and dry locations, the A/B Hybrid LED T8 is listed by the Design Lights Consortium (DLC), UL Classified Type A and B, NSF, FCC, and RoHS. It will perform in extreme temperature ranges from -4°F (-20°C) to 113°F (45°C) and comes with a five-year limited warranty.
