Benefits. T5’s are the first linear lamps to use electronic ballasts only. One T5 ballast can power one or two T5 lamps of any wattage, because they all run at the same current. Their different wattages have the same brightness, which stays the same with any length of the product.
Why is T5 better than LED?
LEDs are typically more intense directly under the fixture producing an area of high intensity directly below the light and lower intensity as the light radiates out. T5s, on the other hand, are a linear source of light, so the light produced by a T5 bulb is spread out over the entire length of the bulb.
Are T5 bulbs interchangeable?
T5 and T8 lamps have different diameters so they are not usually interchangeable. The pin sockets will only line up and complete a circuit in a correctly sized ballast. There are a few ballasts which can be rewired for T5 or T8 bulbs. However, you must still choose a fluorescent bulb of the appropriate nominal length.
