Review: Type B === Ballast Bypass. Great Light!! - The instructions were extremely well written and made installation very simple. All you need are some wire nuts and a good pair of wire cutters.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: do these led light bulbs generate more or less heat than t5 fluorescent bulb?  Looking to solve undercabinet heat problem caused by existing bulbs.**
A: These bulbs consume only 4W in comparison to fluorescent's 8W. The heat problem shall be dramatically reduced.

**Q: As I know 4000k is neutral white,6000k is cool white.I need 4000k neutral white,just make sure this is the right item.**
A: Yes, this is neutral white 4000K. In USA, 4000K is usually called cool white, while 6000K is called daylight white. I will change "cool white" into "neutral white" to clarify for buyers like you. Before buying, please just make sure that your old bulb is full 12"(304MM) pin to pin and your fixture voltage is 110/120VAC. If your old bulb is 11-3/4" pin to pin, please buy for another link: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B013OXZX2E

**Q: Do i need shunted/non-shunted sockets and do i need double-ended power to connect two fixtures in line? how about for a fixture that sits alone?**
A: You can use either shunted/non-shunted sockets. It doesn't matter how you connect two fixtures together. Just make sure that each fixture is applied with the 120V AC power with the hot on one end and the neutral on the other end.

**Q: I can't rewire an under cabinet light with an on/off switch and two 12" inch Led's that run end to end not parallel.  Anyone have exp. w/ this?**
A: Basically, it is electrically parallel, not looking alike parallel! Your old fluorescent bulbs were actually connected in a parallel way, otherwise they wouldn't work at all. Basically, what you need to do is to connect the hot wire to one end of each two bulbs, and the neutral wire to the other end of each two bulbs. Please check the second photo at the left upper corner of the product page. It doesn't matter if the two bulbs are placed in a parallel way or not.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Bulb
*by M***I on August 29, 2026*

Works great.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Type B === Ballast Bypass. Great Light!!

The instructions were extremely well written and made installation very simple. All you need are some wire nuts and a good pair of wire cutters. I had to return a couple of LEDs because the build quality was so poor, these are legit and should last a very long time! Rotation feature is nice

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Easy Replacement for Fluroescent Lamp
*by F***F on March 23, 2023*

I bought two of these to replace fluorescent under cabinet lamps in my kitchen. The installation was easy, including removal of the original electronic ballast. The lamps put out clean white light - not too bright for my situation, but brighter than the fluorescents they replaced. The swivel ends are an important feature. Without them, the bulb would have ended up casting most of it's light against the wall, rather than onto the counter.
