The Turolight VIVID VIV-T5DFSP4 is a direct-fit (ballast-compatible) shatterproof LED T5 tube with a frosted G5 lamp, rated for 50,000 hours. It runs on the existing electronic ballast and is offered as a 2 ft 9 W, 3 ft 18 W or 4 ft 25 W replacement for T5 HO lamps, in several colour temperatures.

Pro tip from the counter
Only the 4 ft 25 W tubes are DLC listed; the 2 ft and 3 ft versions are not. If a utility incentive requires DLC, confine the rebate application to the 4 ft fixtures, and check each fixture's ballast against Turolight's list, since Turolight doesn't recommend them on ballasts five years or older.
Best for: T5 HO fixtures in food processing and commercial kitchens, warehouses and shops, retail display lighting, group relamping
