Cardinal LED Tube Light Designed for LED Retrofit Projects

The Cardinal Linear Light is designed to be a LED retrofit replacement for fluorescent lamps commonly found in commercial, industrial and retail facilities. The product is a direct mechanical fit into the existing light fixtures, runs off of any primary power from 110 to 277 VAC, and operates without the fluorescent ballast. They are UL listed as both a Luminair-Conversion-Retrofit-Product and as a Recognized Component Product ensuring that when installed as directed all UL compliance for the fixture is preserved. Installed efficacies (the ratio of light-output to power consumed) are up to 110 lumens/watt, making them some of the most energy efficient LED lighting products available today.

Cardinal Linear Lights are also recognized by the DesignLights Consortium (DLC) as a product for retrofitting old lighting systems and are included in the DLC's Qualified Product List. For the end user this means that an 18 watt RedBird LED tube can replace a standard 32 watt fluorescent lamp. By comparison, most other LED tube lights would require 22 watts to achieve an equivalent replacement.
