Review on Enhance Illumination with GE Lighting 72275 GE232 MV N Fluorescent by Chris Chincuanco

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Authorized conversion of 24 " T8 F17 to LED bulb

Worked well for my needs which consisted of converting a 24" T8 F17 2 bulb fluorescent to LED bulbs. For some reason this thing is twice the size of the old ballast. But it still fit in the standard grooves of the mounting case, I just had to attach it to a new location. All these "efficiency" mods are like squeezing a balloon. Some become more efficient and some become less. By the way, if you're buying this for the same reason I am - new ones Use LED bulbs - make sure the bulbs and ballast are compatible with each other l are. It took me 2 hours of research to figure this out, finding the compatibility charts hidden on the GE website, figuring out what tombstones are needed for a new install, etc. I don't understand how the average homeowner does all of this will find out . GE makes this a lot harder than it should be!

Pros
  • REDUCING GREENHOUSE EMISSIONS WITH GE BALLASTS: These ballasts are among the most energy efficient ballasts on the market and help to significantly reduce energy consumption and limit greenhouse gas emissions.
Cons
