Very Happy With Results
Installed 18" LED tube lights in my RV replacing the Florescent Tubes. Of course fixtures in mine were the riveted type so had to do a little more work to install along with buying a rivet tool to put back together the way I wanted. I ordered more LED tube lights to do 2 more fixtures today as the first one came out great.

Great product, easy conversion
Steve was great to work with. I had lot's of questions about different bulbs. He pointed me in the right direction for each style I had. These florescent bulbs were an easy conversion with the wiring instructions that came with the bulbs. When I decided to replace all my bulbs with LED's (10 florescent, 15 wedge style 921, a couple 1141 and couple of 1383) I only wanted to do it once. I wanted everything to match in color. I choose M4 because they offered a great bulb for each type I had and at a great price. I've only had them in a week, but the light output is superior to what I had. They also use less energy. I looked at a lot of other bulbs, and these are the best and at a lower cost. If I need bulbs for another installation, I will buy again from M4.

Easy conversion
Well another RV florescent ballast bit the dust, as each one dies I order another LED replacement kit from you. Instructions are great and installation a breeze. I almost look forward to having my old bulbs and ballast die just so I can have the superior light quality of the LED. Thanks again for having such a great product available.

Another great product from M4
Great bulbs, we chose the "Cool White" on M4's recommendation. They are very bright and are exactly what we wanted. You should be aware that there is minor rewiring of the fixture required. M4 sends a detailed installation sheet with the bulbs. I highly recommend changing your existing bulbs to LED.

Great lights
These were very easy to install in my existing fixtures, rewiring for LED was easy. Great color. Will buy more.

Good replacement
Our camper's fluorescent fixture died. While these lights are rather expensive, they are less costly than a new fixture. The light they produce is the same color and maybe even a bit brighter than the fluorescents they replaced. It was easy to modify the old fixture to work with these new lights.

great
Like the color of the bulbs.

LED's
It was very simple to rewire my light fixtures so I could use these new LED tube lights. They are so much brighter & will use less battery power.
