This is a LED retrofit light for 12" Florescent Tube Lights. Due to the size of these smaller tube lights, an external driver is provided. This driver converts 10-30v DC RV power to a clean 12v DC power for long tube life. Other brands of retrofit tube lights have a wire and the driver hanging out the side of the tube, we choose to provide the driver separately and we utilize the natural pins on the end of the tube for power for a much cleaner looking installation. Since the driver occupies the space of your previous ballast, you will never see the wires or driver while looking up at your fixture.
4500k Natural White. For 6000k Cool White see part number T5-Tube-CW. Though not as popular, this tube is also available in 3200k Warm White part number T5-Tube-WW for those that want a Warmer Look.
You will need basic 12vDC wiring skills to install these tubes, or have them professionally installed. Wiring is basic, each driver gets a positive and negative wire connected, and each driver has a positive and negative wire that need to be connected to the end of each tube.

Convert 12" fluorescent fixture to LED
The product is perfect for the application. Instructions were excellent. Product is high quality. Results are superb. Price very attractive. This is my second order. I've converted all the 12" fixtures in my RV to M4 LEDs.

T5-12Tube, Nat. White: 12" T-5 LED, 4500K
I'm a very happy customer. Changed over two of the 12" 2-bulb fluorescent fixtures in my RV to one each of these 12" LED. This is such an excellent product that I bought two more to change over the rest of the fluorescent fixtures. The instructions were clear and easy to follow. Installation went very smoothly. The tube is high quality with built-in heat sink and it fit in the fixture with no issues. The light output is so good I only need one of these in a two-tube fixture. The power consumption dropped from 15W 2-fluorescent) to 3W (1-LED)!

LED light conversion in my Sprinter RV
Super easy to convert and very economical. I got the Natural light for the ceiling of the center aisle and it's much brighter than the old fluorescent tubes.

Great product
This is the second time I have ordered from M4. both times it was to retro fit the power hungry ballast and florescent tubes on sailboats. The LED bulbs came with clear easy to follow instructions. I chose to use wire crimp splices instead of the wire nuts that came with the conversion kit due to vibration and location. Great company and customer service.
