LED TUBES
LED Tubes are a versatile and energy-efficient replacement for traditional fluorescent tubes, offering greater flexibility than integrated LED fittings. Unlike built-in LED fixtures, LED tubes allow for easy re-lamping, colour temperature changes, and lower long-term disposal costs.
There are two main types of LED tubes. HF (High Frequency) tubes are designed to operate with the existing high-frequency ballast, providing a simple retrofit solution but with some energy loss due to powering the ballast. Switch Start / Mains tubes operate in standard switch-start fittings using an LED starter, or can be connected directly to 240V mains without any control gear. The direct mains option provides the best energy savings and long-term reliability.
Available in a range of lengths, wattages, beam angles, and colour temperatures, LED tubes suit offices, schools, commercial spaces, and industrial environments. They offer long lifespan, low maintenance, and excellent light quality, making them a sustainable and cost-effective solution for all linear lighting applications.

Information regarding LED tubes
In order to change from traditional fluorescent tubes you have to decide if you are going to modify the fitting to operate directly from 240V mains and this is the best approach. By removing the control gear you remove from the circuit a source of failure and save all the energy wasted in the control gear.
There are two type of control gear there is traditional magnetic gear with a starter unit also know as "switch start" and then there is electronic control gear know has high frequency ballasts. If you have decided to replace the lamps without modifyiung the fittings then you have to establish wich system your fitting is using.
Switch Start gear: If you are using switch gear then it is really simple you simply buy the correct type of LED tube and replace the trasitional starter with an LED starter (Compulsory) and switch on. It is very simple and works every time. You have the option to bypass the choke at a later time and usew the same LED tubes.
High Frequency control gear: If your fitting is using HF control gear then, it is best to view the manufacturers website to check for compatibility with your ballasts. Usually HF led tubes will work but from time to time they are simply incompatible and the manufacturers have not tested their tubes with all ballast types nor generations of ballasts so there is a risk of premature failure. We therefore recomend the removal of HF gear and that the lamps are operated in mains power.
