Replacement T8 LED Tube for T12 Fluorescents Fixture


I'm interested in the NorthLux T8 95 CRI LED tubes. Am I understanding correctly that these can be used in fixtures that now have T12 fluorescent bulbs, as long as the ballast in the fixtures is removed? Is there any advantage to replacing the fixtures?

We can confirm that our T8 LED Tube Light products are compatible with T12 fixtures, so long as the ballast within the fixture has been bypassed. We have provided a link to the installation guide below, which contains several ballast-bypass options. 

Generally speaking, so long as the fixture can utilize compatible line voltage, we would not foresee any non-cosmetic advantages to replacing the light fixture.
