Anyone remember where it was? Looking to replace a few in my laundry room and i don't really care what color they put out as long as they freaking TURN ON. the ballasts are going out on my existing ones.

TIA

wrong thread.

these were the long flourescent tube replacements for existing shop lights, not a19 LED bulbs.

i can find them for $20ish at home depot each but someone posted a link where they were only $4.

CAD I had posted the ones above before, they range in price from $4-$7 depending on when you buy them.

They are excellent bulbs, I recommend them to anyone looking to replace lights in a kitchen/shop.

You basically cut out the ballast in each fixture and wire each end of the touchstones to the source.

yep exactly what i want to do.

which temp did you go with?

for the laundry room, its not for human habitation so the brighter the better.

also, i have 5 light fixtures in my garage with shitty CFL single bulbs. about to remodel and i'm dragging my feet on lighting becaues everytime i go to lowes & home depot they have better LED shop lights (and cheaper).

any suggestions for an 'all in one' shoplight that has the LEDs baked into the fixture?

i want my garage to look like the surface of the sun.

I bought these from Earth LED when they were on sale a couple months ago. Shipped from Amazon and got them in about 3 days. Love these lights. I bought another set for a closet with a 30% coupon by signing up with another email.

I've gotten the Feit ones from Costco. I think they are about $30 each, and look great in the garage and attic.

I think I went with 6k. Perfect for a workshop.
