Keystone's DirectDrive LED technology makes installing the T5HO tubes in new construction and retrofits easy. These UL Type B LED tubes bypass the ballast by wiring 120-227V line voltage directly to the sockets, saving ballast maintenance costs. This is a direct replacement for a F39T5/HO fluorescent tube.
Ideal for commercial and warehouse applications, these UL Type B LED tubes have wide light distribution ensuring similar photometric performance for fixtures being retrofitted. DirectDrive LED tubes eliminate the need for multiple expensive ballasts in 6-lamp high bay fixtures.

Can you put led tube lights in a fluorescent fixture? Can I replace my fluorescent T8 linear bulbs with LEDs?
Yes! LED Tubes can be installed into a fluorescent fixture. When tubes are Type A + B. Type A or Type B, it is easy to replace those flickering fluorescents. A brief explanation of Type A and B LED linear tubes is below.
Type A LED Linear Tubes are often called "plug and play" tubes. This is because they can simply be installed into the existing fixture.
Type B LED Linear Tubes are often referred to as "ballast bypass." They work with all fluorescent fixtures including ballast-free fixtures. Type B linear tubes power goes directly to the lamp sockets and no longer through the ballast.
Type A + B can be used with or without a ballast. It is ultimately the buyer's preference what they want to do. Type A installation uses the LED Tube + Ballast power for more energy consumption compared to Type B installation only uses the raw tube power and is more energy-efficient.
What does ballast bypass mean? How does ballast bypass work?
Ballast bypass means when installing the LED linear tube, the fixture's ballast will need to be removed first. The power will then go directly to the lamp sockets and no longer through the ballast. The benefits of ballast bypass LED replacement tubes include lights not being shut down by a ballast failure, no more ballast replacements, and savings on the energy bill because energy is no longer drawing from the ballast.

|---|---|
UL Listed |
UL Listed refers to products that have been tested and certified by Underwriters Laboratories (UL). UL Listed LED lighting products have undergone meticulous testing to confirm compliance with standards like electrical safety and fire resistance. UL is recognized by OSHA as a NRTL and UL mark for lighting fixtures is the most prominent marks for lighting in the US. |
NSF |
NSF rated lighting is a type of lighting that is tested and certified to meet the requirements of the National Sanitation Foundation including meeting certain safety requirements and providing proper levels of illumination. NSF rated fixtures and lamps are safe to use in food processing facilities and are tested to ensure they provide adequate light output for food preparation and storage areas, are completely shatterproof to ensure no broken glass over food or food equipment and are easily accessible and easy to clean to minimize the breeding of bacteria or mold. |
