Product Overview
The GE Current LEDT8/LC/G/2/835 (Item #36408) is a 2-foot glass T8 LED lamp designed for UL Type C linear lighting systems. Unlike direct-wire (Type B) or ballast-compatible (Type A) tubes, Type C systems utilize a dedicated external low-voltage LED driver. This architectural approach isolates the line voltage wiring to the driver enclosure, routing safe low-voltage DC power through the fixture sockets to the lamp.
Crafted with a durable glass body, this 24-inch lamp features selectable lumen options—1,050, 1,200, or 1,550 lumens—determined by setting the external Light Output/Wattage (LW) driver to 8W, 9W, or 12W.Emitting a clean 3500K neutral white output at 80 CRI, it provides uniform light distribution ideal for commercial office troffers, retail displays, and healthcare facilities.
Operating over an ambient temperature span from -20°C to 45°C and backed by a 70,000-hour rated life alongside a 7-year limited warranty, this Type C T8 lamp significantly lowers maintenance overhead and energy expense while providing full driver-based dimming control.
Compatible Applications
- Commercial office grid ceiling troffers and architectural luminaires
- School, university, and educational building hallway/classroom lighting
- Healthcare facility corridor, patient room, and administrative area retrofits
- Retail store displays and general commercial linear applications
Before Ordering – Verify
- UL Type C System Required: This lamp does NOT contain an internal driver and cannot run on 120-277V line voltage or standard fluorescent ballasts. It MUST be powered by a compatible external Type C LED driver.
- Dimensions & Base: Confirm fixture physical requirements: 24-inch MOL (2 ft) with G13 medium bi-pin sockets.
- Driver Selection: Lumen output (1050 lm @ 8W / 1200 lm @ 9W / 1550 lm @ 12W) depends entirely on the remote driver model and switch configuration used.
- Dimming Control: Full dimming requires a 0-10V or digital dimming-capable Type C external driver.
Safety and Handling Guidelines
- Always disconnect main AC power supply before opening fixture or servicing drivers and lamps.
- Handle glass tube with care to avoid breakage during installation or disposal.
- Ensure all low-voltage wiring between the remote driver output and fixture sockets complies with manufacturer wiring diagrams.
- Do not install in unventilated or extreme temperature environments outside the -20°C to 45°C operating range.
Compliance
- Safety Standards: cULus Listed for Type C linear LED lamp retrofits.
- Environment: Damp location rated; suitable for indoor damp environments.
- Energy Efficiency: DLC Qualified (verify exact QPL listing status at designlights.org).
