Great Lights
I am so pleased with the first two that I have already ordered two more. My fluorescent fixtures lose one bulb function (even though there is only one ballast) and that has been annoying. The LED replacements are easy to install ( the instructions are excellent) and produce great light.

Bright Lights
I'm very very pleased with these lights. They really brighten up my dimly lite coach. The fluorescent lights they replaced are no match for these leds lights. The service I received from M4 was top notch. Thankyou M4 for a great product and service. We will be doing business again soon.

Excellent Versatile 12-Volt LED Replacement for 18-inch Fluorescent Tubes
Great product! Am using these bright cool white LED tubes to replace 18-inch fluorescent tubes in my six 12-volt RV 2-tube ceiling fixtures. Have same configuration as fluorescent tubes and use the fixture's original sockets for mounting and direct 12-volt power connections. Simple fixture rewiring removes the fluorescent ballast from the circuit so that 12-volt positive (+) power is connected to one end of the LED replacement and 12-volt negative (-) to the other end. The LED tube is versatile in that (1) polarity does not matter and tube can be reversed end-for-end in the fixture, and (2) the 2-prong end caps (duplicative of the fluorescent tubes) can be rotated 1/4 turn (90 degrees) to make the LED tubes point downward, regardless of the position of the fixture's mounting sockets.

Great product!
The LED replacement fluorescent tubes both the T8 and T5 units met my expectations 100% and the customer service was great ! I will be purchasing more of there products as I continue to convert all of the lights on my Newmar Dutch Star. Lots of plans for boondocking and the LEDs are a great wattage saver!

Wonderful light
These take just a bit more wiring than the ones with the internal wiring but I like them better as you don't have the dangling wire from the tube. Nice light not showing the individual leds.

18" LED tube
First time doing a led change over.. The instructions were very easy. It took me less than 10 minutes to change out 2 fluorescent fixtures. We used the cool white and they are bright.. Just right for the kitchen area but we will try a different color tube for the bedroom and setting area.. The cost in comparison to others is very good also.. I am a fan and happy to be done shopping round. this IS the product to use.
