Sylvania 41735 (LED9T8L24FG850BFG2) 9W 2ft Type B LED T8 Tube — 5000K, Frosted Glass, G13 Base, 120-277V

The Sylvania 41735 (LED9T8L24FG850BFG2) is a commercial-grade 9-watt 2-foot Type B double-ended ballast-free LED T8 tube from the LEDlescent™ series, engineered to replace traditional 17W fluorescent T8 lamps by bypassing the existing ballast. Operating directly on 120–277V line voltage, this frosted glass lamp delivers 1,100 lumens of crisp 5000K daylight illumination at an efficient 122 LPW efficacy and 82 CRI. Featuring a standard G13 medium bi-pin base, patented safety circuitry to eliminate shock hazards, 50,000-hour rated operating life, and compatibility with both shunted and non-shunted sockets, it provides a dependable, maintenance-free linear retrofit. Always verify fixture wiring, input voltage, and socket condition before ordering.

Technical Specifications

Product Overview

The Sylvania 41735 (LED9T8L24FG850BFG2) is an energy-saving 2-foot linear LED T8 lamp from the LEDlescent™ family designed to operate ballast-free on 120–277V line voltage. By removing the fluorescent ballast from the circuit, this Type B tube permanently eliminates ballast maintenance issues and reduces electrical operating draw down to just 9 watts while delivering 1,100 lumens.

Engineered with double-ended wiring and a patented safety mechanism, the internal circuitry prevents electrical current from passing through the tube until both ends are seated securely in their lamp holders. The polarity-neutral design allows installation in either orientation and works directly with both shunted and non-shunted sockets, simplifying retrofit labor across commercial facilities.

Constructed with a frosted glass envelope delivering uniform, glare-free 5000K daylight illumination, the Sylvania 41735 is rated for 50,000 hours of operating life. It is compatible with occupancy sensors and certified under UL 1598C as a luminaire conversion retrofit kit, preserving existing fixture safety ratings.

Compatible Applications

• Commercial office fixtures, cove lighting, and display cases
• Industrial high bay and low bay linear luminaires
• Parking garages, underpasses, and transportation tunnels
• Educational, healthcare, and retail facility general illumination

Before Ordering – Verify

• Ballast Bypass Required (Type B): The fluorescent ballast MUST be bypassed or removed. Connect 120–277V line voltage directly to the fixture sockets per the manufacturer wiring diagram. Do NOT connect to a fluorescent ballast.
• Affix Luminaire Warning Sticker: To retain fixture UL classification under UL 1598C, the warning sticker provided in the packaging must be affixed to the retrofitted luminaire.
• Socket Compatibility: Works with both shunted and non-shunted G13 sockets. For non-shunted sockets, tie lead pairs together.
• Emergency Battery Backup: Compatible with LEDVANCE 75740 emergency battery backup, Philips Bodine ELI-S-20, and IOTA IIS series inverters. Existing fluorescent emergency ballasts must be disconnected.
• Dimming Circuitry: Dimmable on 120V only with approved trailing-edge dimmers (tested with Lutron NTELV-300). Non-dimmable on 277V.
• Fixture Type: Approved for open and enclosed lens/diffuser luminaires; NOT approved for vapor tight or sealed fixtures.

Safety and Handling Guidelines

• Turn off power at the main circuit breaker before installing, inspecting, or maintaining fixtures.
• Ensure sockets are in good condition; replace cracked, charred, or loose lampholders before retrofitting.
• Do not mix fluorescent lamps and LED tubes within the same luminaire.
• Cap off disconnected ballast leads if the unused ballast remains inside the fixture housing.
• Operating ambient temperature range is -4°F to 113°F (-20°C to 45°C). Protect from direct water exposure.
