T8 LED Bulbs Now Available at 1000Bulbs.com for Low Prices
Garland, Texas (PRWEB) February 27, 2014 -- As the developments in LED technology continue to grow, so does the need for affordable, energy-efficient lighting. Wanting to provide LED lighting that is both high-quality and low-cost, Internet retailer, 1000Bulbs.com is now offering 4-foot retrofit T8 LED bulbs at low prices from trusted brands including ETi, Green Creative, PlusRite, Precision Lighting, and SunSun Lighting.
While many consumers expect LED lamps to cost upwards of $30, 1000Bulbs.com is offering T8 LED bulbs for low prices ranging from $19.99 to $29.99. With rated lifetimes of up to 50,000 hours, these T8 LED tubes will drastically cut maintenance costs by eliminating the need for frequent lamp replacement. In addition to being long-lasting, the T8 LED tubes will maintain their quality of light. Customers can expect to see no more than 25 percent lumen degradation over the course of the rated lifetime of a T8 LED sold by 1000Bulbs.com.
Not only will these T8 LED tubes significantly reduce maintenance costs, they will also help save money on energy bills. While a T8 fluorescent tube consumes about 32 watts of energy, T8 LED tubes cut that amount by almost half, using only 18 watts of energy. Not only do LEDs operate on less energy, they also produce half the heat for the same amount of light as fluorescent equivalents. As light fixtures produce less heat, home and business owners will be spending less on the heating and air-conditioning portion of their energy bill.
The minimal energy consumption, low cost, and long rated life of these T8 LEDs means that consumers will quickly see a return on their investment. According to the 1000Bulbs.com Energy Savings Calculator, customers can expect to make up the cost of an 18-watt T8 LED lamp in approximately 28 months and save up to $77 in maintenance and energy costs over the life of the lamp.
Available in color temperatures ranging from warm white (3000K) to stark white (5000K), these T8 LEDs are able to provide the same color temperatures as fluorescent T8 lamps. LED T8 tubes cannot be directly installed and do not require a ballast in order to operate. This eliminates ballast compatibility issues as well as maintenance costs that come from running off direct line voltage. In the near future, 1000Bulbs.com will offer 2-foot and 4-foot T8 LED tubes that can be directly installed, providing quicker installation without the need for a licensed electrician.
