LED Tube Bundles
LED tube lighting is commonly used in warehouses, industrial halls, and barns. This lighting is suitable for both residential and commercial use. The tube types are available in various lengths. With LED tubes, you save up to 85% on your energy costs compared to traditional fluorescent lighting. In addition, LED tubes contain no toxic substances, making them environmentally friendly. They also have a longer lifespan (30,000 to 50,000 burning hours), which means LED tubes rarely need to be replaced. MeinLED offers up to 5 years of warranty on its tube lighting, allowing you to enjoy worry-free use of the LED lighting from MeinLED. An LED tube generally pays for itself within 2 years.. You can also come to us for matching LED tube fixtures .
Which LED tube light do I need?
MeinLED cannot determine for you which LED tube light you need. This depends on your specific wishes and requirements for an LED tube light. Of course, we can advise you to help you make the right choice. The following points are important when purchasing an LED tube light:
- What length do you need? Tube lights are available in 60cm, 90cm, 105cm, 120cm, and 150cm. If you are also purchasing new LED tube fixtures, you can choose between these dimensions. MeinLED recommends an 18W – 120cm tube light for low ceilings. For high ceilings, we recommend a 22W-24W 150cm tube light. The other sizes are installed less frequently and are often used for special purposes.
- What diameter LED tube light do you need? The most common diameters for a tube light are T8 (26mm) and T5 (16mm). Therefore, carefully check which one you need.
- LED fluorescent tubes are available in three light colors. At MeinLED we have divided the light colors into: 3000K (warm white), 4000K (natural white), and 6000K (daylight white). For more information, check: "Color temperature (Kelvin) and light color"
- What light output do you prefer? Light output is expressed in lumens per watt. The higher the number of lumens per watt, the greater the luminous intensity of an LED fluorescent tube.
How do I install a fluorescent tube?
Using an LED starter, an LED fluorescent tube is very easy to install within your current fluorescent fixture.See the step-by-step guide below:
- Unscrew the old starter from the fixture
- Unscrew the old fluorescent tube from the fixture
- Install the new LED starter
- Install the new LED fluorescent tube
- Turn the power back on
The step-by-step guide above explains how to install an LED fluorescent tube in an "old" fixture. However, we do not recommend installing LED fluorescent tubes in "old" fixtures if you are installing multiple LED fluorescent tubes (8 or more). This is because "old" fixtures contain a ballast and a starter. A disadvantage of this is that it can drastically reduce the lifespan of an LED fluorescent tube. There is an even greater disadvantage/danger. The power supply in an "old" fixture remains the same. Power consumption decreases due to the energy savings of the LED fluorescent tube. As a result, the voltage in the wiring increases.When a large number of "old" fixtures are connected in series this way, the voltage can become too high. The danger of this is that the wires can melt and cause a fire. MeinLED 's advice is therefore to convert "old fixtures" or install new LED fluorescent fixtures.
