This is a 12VOLT tube. Some RV and Boat fixtures (Thinlite) use a 120v florescent tube light which uses a ballast that converted 12vdc to 120v to light the light. With this light you must eliminate this troublesome ballast and just supply the tube with 12v power, positive to one end of the tube, ground to the other. A simple fixture rewire is required. Do not install these into a 120v environment or they will be damaged the the warranty void.
Rotatable End Caps so they will fit in fixtures with either horizontal or vertical sockets with a simple 90 degree twist of the end cap.
36" T8 12v Tube Light Replacement. Standard Size F30T8 T8 Tube, Actual Size 35 1/8" excluding pins, or around 36 3/4" including the pins.
6000K Cool White, for 4500k Natural White see part number T8-36TUBE-NW
Installation of this tube is the same as our 18" tube lights. Remote or bypass the florescent ballast is required.
NOTICE: Requires a simple rewire to the fixture to eliminate the wasteful and troublesome ballast. See the link below for typical installation instructions for T8 tubes. Do not install these into a 120v environment or they will be damaged the the warranty void.

LED tube
Easy switch on galley light ..just identify power & ground out of roof and bypass ballast- it will die eventually. Light value very good, easy to rotate ends to fit proper direction, either end pos or neg. Very good design. A must upgrade even if just your original tube just goes out.

12 volt 3ft LED lights
I have electrical experience and the tubes were easy to fit for me. They work well. These tubes are not cheap but I do not know if they are expensive either. So far, I am very pleased.

Cool white, 6000k
I replaced 2 fluorescent tube lights over our RV kitchen area. My wife loves bright light and the are a very bright with white light but still easy on the eyes with the frosted glass tube. I highly recommend them and they draw about half of the watts of Fluorescent tubes that they replaced. These were real watts that were measured using a very accurate battery monitor system that use a ground shunt. Love these lights. If your looking for a softer light with a slight yellowish hue, I would order the same lights in the natural white light, 4500K

Great Product
Having replaced my florescent bulbs in my kitchen light so many time I lost track, I decided to go with the M4 Tube light replacements. Ordering was easy, arrived when I thought they would, and installation was a piece of cake. Chocolate to be exact!!! Now I've ordered another set to replace the other set of lights in the kitchen and expect the same results. As soon as I can I'll replace more lights throughout the RV. Great product!!!
