Type of review

Purchase at your own risk, installing this product is incredibly difficult for someone with no electrical experience. The video provided on the product website contains errors and is not easy to understand. At the time of writing this review I did not have the full cost of the bulb and the cost of purchasing a replacement bulb as we removed the ballast when attempting to install this bulb.

Pros
  • 200% more energy efficient than its fluorescent counterpart
Cons
  • dull packaging

Great product - Bulbs

I bought two of these LED tubes to upgrade one of the existing fluorescent dome lights in my RV. I followed the instructions and was able to install the bulbs in about 20 minutes. They are significantly brighter than fluorescent lights and I can add a second switch to choose between one and two bulbs. I highly recommend this product and it's well worth the money (about $35). I have already ordered another set for my other lamp.

Pros
  • LED replacement bulb for 18" indoor fluorescent bulb
Cons
  • Crumpled

Starlight's T8-18 LED lamp works!

These 18" Starlights T8 bulbs are expensive but I bought one and it worked well for the first month of use. With this kind of light output, you really only need one light fixture per light fixture when replacing fluorescent tubes. The color of the light is quite cold, like that bluish white. Although it's slightly better than my other fluorescent lights. Like many I had problems with light. I have no idea if it was bulbs or ballast and I didn't want to accidentally swap out the bulbs for…

Pros
  • 810 lumens and 4500 Kelvin
Cons
  • Cord is shorter than other models
