Our take on the Philips 379008 FB32T8/TL835/6 ALTO EA U Shaped T8 Fluorescent Tube Light Bulb

This is a 32-watt U-bent T8 fluorescent tube in neutral white (3500K) with a CRI of 85, so colors read close to natural under it. The U shape fits fixtures that take bent tubes, such as troffers and wrap lights, and the ALTO low-mercury build with green end caps is the main draw over generic T8s. Extended-life ratings cut how often someone has to relamp a ceiling. It suits offices, shops and schools replacing tubes in existing U-bent fixtures, not anyone switching to LED.

Pros
  • Neutral white 3500K suits general work areas
  • CRI 85 renders colors better than standard 80 CRI tubes
  • ALTO low-mercury design with green end caps
  • Extended life rating reduces relamping frequency
  • Rapid-start operation in compatible ballasts
Cons
  • Fluorescent, not LED: no efficiency gain over other T8s
  • U-bent shape only fits fixtures made for it
  • Needs a compatible rapid-start ballast
  • Sold by the carton, more than a single-fixture job needs
  • Contains mercury and needs proper disposal

Questions and answers

Will this fit my fixture?
Only if the fixture takes a U-bent T8 tube with the same pin spacing and length. Check the old lamp's shape and base before ordering.
What color is the light?
Neutral white at 3500K, between warm and cool white. CRI is 85, so colors look closer to natural than under standard tubes.
Do I need a special ballast?
It is a rapid-start lamp and needs a compatible rapid-start ballast. It is not a plug-and-play replacement for LED tubes.
How is it different from a standard T8?
The U bend fits bent-tube fixtures, and the ALTO build uses less mercury. Light output and wattage are in line with other 32W T8s.
How many come in a carton?
20 lamps per carton, so plan for a full relamp or spares.
Should I switch to LED instead?
If the fixture is old or you want lower running costs, LED tubes are worth comparing. This lamp makes sense when you want to keep existing ballasts and fixtures.
