I need to replace bulbs in existing 4-ft T8 magnetic fixtures. I'd like to do it with no mods to the fixtures. Should I stick with fluorescents, or can anyone recommend a good LED replacement? Thanks

I'm not sure what kind of ballasts they were, but a neighbor installed LED replacement "tubes", and they created terrible RFI. (OK, they were only 50 feet from my RX loop.) I'd recommend just replaci

Hi Jim, I replaced my 4 foot fluorescents in about a dozen fixtures with LEDs with excellent success. I stripped all of the original electrical guts out of the fixtures, it was a trivial effort and l

I replaced mine about 5 years ago, using no-name "ballast bypass" aka "direct wire" LED tubes.  The only mod to the fixtures was to cut the two hot leads coming in and connect those hot leads to the
