Value Added
Easy to install with great directions, throws excellent light. Great alternative to installing a new light fixture saving many $$. I highly recommend M4 products.

Great bulbs
The instructions were easy to follow. Bulbs were bright and should last longer than the florescent. Very happy!

LED Tube ligts
I have now replaced all the fluorescent bulbs in our RV with LED tube lights. Excellent decision. No more ballasts and the LED's give out more light. I used 4500k in some areas but in the living/dining area I used 6000k lights. In retrospect, I think I would have bought all 6000k. I would recommend these for all RV's.

Great customer service
Ordered 2 bulbs to try them out I am no electrician but after reading the detailed instructions and watching the video I must say it was pretty simple. Wow what a difference in light,decided to do the rest of the overhead lights ordered them right away I am on the east coast and they are on the west coast I had only one week before a 5 week trip I stated that on my order. I got a call from M-4 telling me no worries they will be there.And indeed they were installed the other 8 bulbs and presto we have great lighting. I highly recommend M-4 products as they know RV lighting.

Great Lights
I replaced two double tube florescent lights in our 5th wheel with the easy to follow instructions provided with the bulbs and my wife was really impressed at the difference in the light provided by the new bulbs.

Great replacement for flourescent.
The bulb is great. The website gives instructions for removing the ballast from a double bulb fixture, for those of us with no imagination it would be nice to also include instructions for installation in a single bulb fixture.
