I have 4 in my garage and absolutely love them.
Just what are you doing to " ... bypass the ballast ..." ???
.
Now that my attic is at a comfortable temperature to work, I'm thinking about adding some lighting in my garage. Years ago, I would have gone with 8' fluorescent strips. But now I'm thinking about the LED strip lights. The lumen levels and wattage used look decent enough. Has anyone made the switch to LED lights in their garage?
Some pop into existing 4’ tube and use the existing ballast. This least recommended type to use.
You can buy a kit that changes the end pieces and adds more to the center on a 8' fixture so you can have 4 4' led bulbs and wire them direct and do away with the ballast and driver.Thanks. This is what I did for my 4-foot fixtures. Why is it the least recommended? I guess I should look for the replacement/conversion ballasts and swap out my 8-foot as well!
