I bought a case of 25 LED tube bulbs and I'm replacing all the flourescent bulbs with them. The bulbs I bought are "T8 LED Bulbs, 5000K Daylight, Ballast Bypass Tubes; 14 watt - 1800 lumens - One Sided Direct Wire - 4 Ft." We really like the ones I've installed so far.
I am totally clueless and nervous when it comes to electrical fixtures and possible retrofitting. I don't know what "ballast bypass tubes" are. Do the new bulbs have the same two prongs at each end to slip into the old fixture, or do you have to rewire or have some kind of adapter purchased in order to use the LED tubes in the old fixtures?
