I have a 2ft light with two 18w tubes t8 size which i want to fit with led type tubes having searched web it seems there are ballast bypass, with wires both ends, or bypass but live and neutral one end, or new type twin 9w with no bypass fit led tubes with led starter, if i fit this new type each tube comes with a starter can this be used with twin tubes, also from energy view will i save more by bypassing ballast assembly and rewiring with a different led tubes. Throw it in the bin, and buy a proper led fitting. If you short or remove the ballast, then accidentally fit a real fluorescent tube, if you are unlucky enough that it lights, it will then explode a few seconds later.

No answer to my original question it's not about how much light or this one id only for sink, it's about energy use i know i won't save much at present the light get's switched on and off about times a day and changing to led will help i also am not in the habit of throwing stuff in the bin if it can be repaired by myself, i have already purchased new l;ed tubes 9w with an led starter but because the ballast unit will still be circuit it will use energy, i will be speaking to manufactures in new year who hopefully will be able to answer my question's. I am surprised that the controlgear in the existing fitting has not failed if it has been turned on and of times a day for quite some time, fluorescent lights are not intended to be used like that. Bin the fitting and have a fresh start. The Happy Builder , Dec 28,
