Simply Amazing!
This is my second purchase and second review. I now have purchased 10 of these 18 inch in 4500K. At $25.00 a tube they ain't cheap but they are worth the expense. The light is warm and bright. I see best when my lighting is close to day light color. These are a bit beyond daylight but don't approach the harshness of the cool white tubes. I really like the ability to aim the light by rotating the tube. I am extremely happy with the purchase and the fact that I no longer have to deal with the fluorescent tubes and those faulty ballasts.

Easy retrofit install of LED 18" tubes
The right color and brightness, and reduced heat and battery power consumption were my goals in replacing the old fluorescent tubes with LED in my motorhome, and these are perfect. M4Products web page info was great, and delivery was fast with good packaging, and the retrofit instructions were great.

Top quality LED light
Saw this product on RV Geeks video on U tube. Great product, easy to install, excellent quality. Really lights up our bedroom, almost too bright. No more replacing fluorescent bulbs and low draw on batteries while traveling & dry camping.

Easy install
The replacement led bulbs for the overhead fluorescent light in my camper fit exactly and the rewiring took 5 minutes. If you're not familiar with 12v wiring, read the instructions, otherwise its pretty simple. Light is good, lumens output is strong and saves some 12v battery when dry camping.
