GE Lighting Linear LED Bulb, UL Type B, T8, Medium Bi-Pin (G13), 4,000 K Color Temperature, Lumens 1800 lm

Ballast-bypass (UL Type B) LED linear light bulbs can be installed in compatible fluorescent lighting fixtures and do not require a ballast or driver to power the bulbs. They eliminate the risk of lighting outages due to faulty ballasts or drivers and avoid the expense of installing LED drivers when converting lighting systems from fluorescent technology to LED technology. Ballast-bypass LED linear light bulbs require the fixtures to be wired into the building's power supply, so they are not suitable for facilities that have frequent power surges. LED linear bulbs use less energy and need to be changed less often than fluorescent linear bulbs.
