Our take on the Philips 32-Watt Equivalent 48 in. T8 Tube G13 Base LED Linear Light Bulb Multi-CCT 3000/3500/4000/5000/6500K (10-Pack)

This is a 10-pack of 4-foot T8 LED tubes with a G13 base that replace 32-watt fluorescent tubes. Each tube switches between five color temperatures (3000K to 6500K) with a slide switch, so one SKU covers warm office light through cool daylight. It works both plug-and-play on compatible ballasts (Type A) and as a direct-wire ballast bypass (Type B), which is more flexible than single-mode tubes. Suits shops, garages, offices and schools swapping out fluorescent fixtures; buyers should confirm their ballast is on Philips' compatibility list before plug-and-play install.

  • Direct-wire setup may not meet code in some jurisdictions

What reviewers say

Owners of Philips T8 LED tubes generally report easy retrofits, instant light and no flicker, with the selectable color temperature a common plus. Complaints center on the per-tube switch and on ballast-bypass wiring being more involved than expected.

What people mention
  • Color temperaturePraisedOwners like choosing between warm and daylight white with the switch on each tube.
  • BrightnessPraisedUsers say output matches or beats the fluorescent tubes they replace, with no warm-up.
  • FlickerPraisedReviewers report steady light with no visible flicker once installed.
  • InstallationMixedPlug-and-play installs are quick, but direct-wire bypass is described as fiddly.
  • Ballast compatibilityMixedWorks for many, but some buyers found their older ballast was not supported.
  • CCT switchCriticisedSetting the color on every tube individually is called tedious.

From Ace Hardware

  • Operates as both plug-and-play (UL type-A) and double-ended direct wire ballast bypass (UL type-B)
  • Compatible with more ballasts than any manufacturer
  • If the ballast fails, cut it from the system and wire the tube directly to line voltage (120-Volt to 277-Volt)
  • Meets strict criteria for eye comfort
  • Turns on instantly at full brightness without delay or flickering

About the Philips 32-Watt Equivalent 48 in. T8 Tube G13 Base LED Linear Light Bulb Multi-CCT 3000/3500/4000/5000/6500K (10-Pack)

This is a 48-inch T8 LED linear tube with a G13 base. It is a 32-watt equivalent and comes as a 10-pack. The color temperature is selectable between 3000K, 3500K, 4000K, 5000K and 6500K.

The tube works in two ways. As a plug-and-play UL type-A tube, it runs on a compatible existing ballast. As a UL type-B double-ended direct wire tube, it bypasses the ballast. If the ballast fails, it can be cut out of the system and the tube wired directly to line voltage of 120 to 277 volts.

The tube turns on instantly at full brightness, without delay or flickering. It meets strict criteria for eye comfort.

Questions and answers

Do these work with my existing fluorescent ballast?
They are UL Type A plug-and-play, so they work on many electronic and magnetic ballasts. Check Philips' ballast compatibility list for your model before installing.
What is the difference between Type A and Type B?
Type A runs on the existing ballast. Type B bypasses the ballast and wires the tube directly to line voltage, which keeps working if the ballast fails.
Can I change the color temperature after installing?
Yes. Each tube has a switch for 3000K, 3500K, 4000K, 5000K or 6500K, so you can set it before or after mounting.
Are these dimmable?
No. They are not designed for dimming on standard fluorescent dimming systems.
What is in the box?
Ten 4-foot T8 LED tubes with G13 bases. No ballast or wiring parts are included.
Do they fit standard 4-foot fixtures?
Yes, they are 48-inch T8 tubes with G13 bi-pin bases, the same size as standard 4-foot fluorescent tubes.
