Litetronics LT11ET84840 is an 11.5-watt LED T8 linear lamp designed to retrofit traditional fluorescent fixtures with a ballast-compatible, plug-and-play upgrade. Delivering an initial lumen output around 1,800 with an average efficacy near 156.5 lumens per watt, this lamp provides broad, even illumination through a 330-degree beam and a 48-inch nominal length. The compact design houses the driver inside the end cap, which helps minimize light loss and contributes to a cleaner appearance at the fixture level. With a color temperature of 4000 K, it offers a neutral white tone suitable for general lighting in work spaces, corridors, and maintenance areas. The product carries a 5-year limited warranty indicating its expected service life aligns with long-term facility usage, and the lamp is rated for wide ambient operating temperatures, extending from -4 to 113 degrees Fahrenheit. The construction and thermal protection measures—such as thermally fused drivers—are intended to help guard against overcurrent and overheating, which can impact lumen maintenance and longevity.
This LED T8 is specified as ballast compatible, meaning it is intended for use in fixtures that were originally equipped with fluorescent ballasts. It supports various ballast types, including instant start and program start configurations, as well as emergency back-up ballasts in some installations, helping to preserve existing wiring and infrastructure while reducing energy consumption compared with traditional lamps. The lamp’s med-bi-pin base (G13) and 4-foot length make it suitable for standard T8 tombstone sockets and common two-lamp configurations, while the listed initial lumens and color rendering guide planning for spaces requiring a practical, neutral white light. Packaged with a case quantity of 25 pieces, it is positioned for facility-wide replacements or re-lamp projects.
When selecting this lamp, consider the fixture’s ballast compatibility and ensure compatible dimming or control systems are not required, as some ballast-compatible LEDs rely on the ballast for power. Verify that the existing ballast condition and any manufacturer guidelines support a direct ballast replacement to meet project goals for energy savings and maintenance intervals.
