T8 Tube LED lamps is the new generation in sustainable commercial, office and home lighting with these advantages over fluorescent lamps:

• Long life (at least 40,000 hours for Philips EnduraLED T8 Tube),
• No mercury content (allowing for non-hazardous disposal),
• Instant on with no flicker and no buzzing,
• No UV ray emission (does not distort the color of the lighted objects),
• Powered directly by mains voltage with no external ballast required for power on (for additional cost savings and energy savings without additional energy consumed by external ballast),
• Wider operating temperature,
  
• Significant energy savings (with higher energy-efficiency of LEDs and no external ballast required).

With the above advantages over linear fluorescent lamps, there are many applications for T8 Tube LED lamps with example applications listed below:

• Colder environments
• Walk-in coolers
• Outdoor signs/ billboard lighting
• Bus shelters
• Loading docks
• Parking garages/ parking lots
• Industrial
  
• Manufacturing facilities
• Food processing
• Dusty applications
• Rated for food processing
• Dust on top of lamp does not effect light output
• Re-lamping of existing linear fluorescent lamps to comply with DOE (Department of Energy) energy efficiency standards
• Areas needing long operation (24/7), such as hallways, stairwells and parking garages
