T5 energy saving lamps are both electrically and physically incompatible with T8 and T12 tube fittings. These differences in dimension prevent T5 lamps from being used as replacements for T8 and T12 lamps, unless the existing luminaires are electronically converted, via T5 retrofit.
The LGL T5 retrofit Tube in Tube is a complete conversion system designed to fit as is. It is the simplest and most cost effective solution for commercial and industrial lighting today. No need to replace any lighting fittings to convert to the latest T5 technology.
The LGL T5 tube is the most energy efficient fluorescent lamp on the market. The lamps are rated at 20,000 hours with only 10% lumen loss in the first 10,000 hours. The Reflectors are designed to maintain its brilliant mirror-like finish. It increases the amount of light output and leaves a shining reflection that will illuminate the room throughout the lifespan of the kit.
The T5 Tube-in-Tube adapter is a breakthrough in electrical engineering as it contains its own low-powered self starter and runs flicker free. This combination of the T5 lamp, reflector, and adaptor provides the highest luminous efficacy in its class.
The new high-frequency ballast draws only 2W, rather than the 6-10W of the old ballast, increasing the efficiency of the system.
