Ballast Compatible or Bypass – One Tube, Two Installation Options

Patel LED’s T8 Type A+B hybrid tubes give you the best of both worlds. These innovative LED tubes can operate with existing fluorescent ballasts (Type A) or be wired directly to line voltage (Type B), making them the ultimate flexible retrofit solution. Whether you're upgrading a commercial office, warehouse, school, or retail shop, these tubes simplify your LED transition — no guesswork, no hassle.

Perfect for maintenance teams, contractors, and facility managers, Type A+B tubes reduce installation time and future-proof your lighting system.

Energy Savings and High Output Performance

These LED tubes deliver powerful brightness with significantly lower energy consumption than outdated fluorescent lamps. You’ll get immediate energy savings of up to 60% while enjoying brighter, cleaner, and flicker-free lighting.

They’re ideal for 2x4 troffers, strip fixtures, vapor tights, and linear lighting setups. Most models are DLC listed for rebate eligibility and offer long lifespans of 50,000+ hours, cutting down on both maintenance and replacement costs.

Applications for T8 Type A+B LED Tubes

• Offices and conference rooms
