Description of F8T5-IL

8w replacement T5 fluorescent tube 3000K, warm white

The tube length is 211mm without pins, 225mm including pins. The manufacturer specifies a tolerance of +/- 3mm for these tubes.

With fluorescent tubes it is important to check the length of the tube before purchase as different manufacturers have different length of tubes despite being the same wattage.

Some light fittings only work if the tube is rotated to exactly the right position, whereas others work either at the right position or 180 degrees round from that.

Smilight branded lamps, also known as Diplomat and Eastfield, were common in kitchens made by Howdens, Hygena, MFI and Schreiber.
