Great fix to an expensive problem
My coach is a 2008 and has a lot of 12" and 18" fluorescent lights and I have replaced 3 or 4 ballast over the years. Ballast are hard to deal with and expensive. So the idea of replacing the standard bulbs with LED ‘s was intriguing so I bought Two 18inch LED tubes to give it a try. The install instructions were perfect if your light was the one they used, in the instructions but after just a few minutes I was able to figure it out and the retro fit took less the 10mins. They look great and the ballast problem is solved. I think the cost of the LED is close to the cost of a ballast so it becomes a wash. I also, run from batteries a lot tail gating SEC football so I should see improvements on the power draw. Great product I will buy more.

Easy to do!
Just follow the instructions that come with the kit. Its a no brainer. If you get stuck review the 1st page diagram on the wiring and duplicate it. If you have a double tube fluorescent you are replacing just treat it as one bulb.
