Why did you pick this product vs others?:Vue for the money

Exactly as described . Received promptly

I like how these have a slot in the middle so I can screw down to a board without a fixture. Used with 18w led tubes.

Works great

Worked great for reworking some fixtures to led with more tube's than before

After 25 years with seven 4-light fixtures, replacing ballasts and disposing of fluorescent tubes was becoming really tiresome. I bought a 20-pack of these bulbs, a pack of spare tombstones and was ready to roll. I started clipping out ballasts (2 per fixture) and direct wiring to each end of the sockets. With 4 bulbs, there are a lot of wires to connect, especially if fixtures are daisy-chained together. I wanted some consistency in wire color coding for future serviceability and some existing wires from ballasts didn’t reach the end where line power comes in. I suggest having spools of 18 gauge solid copper hookup wire on hand. I replaced old cracked tombstones and extended wiring from each to incoming power using long pigtails.and wire nuts. Plugged these bulbs in and they fit nicely and securely, played for a minute with color temperature and decided on 4000k, and Bob’s your uncle. They look great and provide as much light as the old 40 watt fluorescents. Will see how they last, something tells me that the images of melted bulbs in some reviews are due to miswiring or other problems.

Worked great
