SUNPACK T5 LED Conversion Lamp - 36in

Upgrade Your T5HO Fixture to LED - No New Fixture Required

The SUNPACK 36in T5 LED Conversion Lamp is a direct drop-in upgrade for existing T5HO fluorescent fixtures, delivering LED efficiency and longevity in the same T5 tube format growers already have installed. By swapping fluorescent tubes for SUNPACK LED conversion lamps, cultivators eliminate mercury from their lighting setup entirely - reducing environmental disposal concerns and removing the gradual lumen depreciation that fluorescent tubes experience over their operating life. It is the simplest, most cost-effective way to move a T5HO grow light setup from fluorescent to LED.

Key Features & Benefits

• Zero mercury formula - Unlike standard T5HO fluorescent lamps that contain mercury requiring careful disposal, the SUNPACK LED conversion lamp is completely mercury-free - a safer choice for growers, facilities, and the environment.
• Drop-in T5HO fixture compatibility - Designed to fit directly into existing T5HO bi-pin fixtures without rewiring, adapters, or fixture modifications, making the upgrade from fluorescent to LED as simple as swapping a tube.
• 36in form factor - The 36in length matches the most common T5HO fixture sizes, allowing straightforward replacement in any T5HO grow light setup of the corresponding fixture length.
• LED efficiency and lifespan - LED technology delivers superior energy efficiency and a significantly longer rated lifespan compared with T5HO fluorescent tubes, reducing both electricity costs and replacement frequency over time.
• Consistent light output over time - LED lamps maintain more stable lumen output across their lifespan compared with fluorescent tubes, which experience progressive lumen depreciation from the first hours of use.

Who Should Use This

Home growers and commercial propagation operations with existing T5HO fluorescent fixtures who want the benefits of LED technology - longer lifespan, mercury-free disposal, and improved efficiency - without the cost or disruption of replacing entire fixtures. A practical, incremental upgrade path for any T5HO-based grow light installation.

Compatibility

Designed for use in T5HO bi-pin fluorescent fixtures of the corresponding 36in tube length. Verify your fixture's ballast type and wiring configuration before installation - some T5 LED conversion lamps require ballast bypass while others are ballast-compatible. Follow the installation instructions included with the lamp for your specific fixture type.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to rewire my T5HO fixture to use this LED conversion lamp?

Installation requirements depend on your specific fixture's ballast configuration. Some T5 LED conversion lamps are designed for direct ballast-compatible installation, while others require a simple ballast bypass. Always follow the specific installation instructions included with the SUNPACK conversion lamp before installation.

How does the light output compare with the T5HO fluorescent lamp I am replacing?

LED conversion lamps typically match or exceed the initial lumen output of the T5HO fluorescent tubes they replace while consuming less power. Additionally, LED output remains more stable over time compared with fluorescent lamps that progressively dim from their first use.

Why is zero mercury important for a grow room?

Mercury in fluorescent lamps creates a disposal challenge - broken lamps release mercury vapour, and used tubes require specialist recycling rather than standard waste disposal. LED conversion lamps eliminate this risk entirely, simplifying lamp disposal and improving safety in grow room environments where lamp breakage can occur.

Will this lamp work in any T5HO fixture brand, or only SUNPACK fixtures?

The SUNPACK T5 LED Conversion Lamp is designed for standard T5HO bi-pin fixtures and is not limited to SUNPACK fixtures. Verify tube length and installation requirements with your specific fixture before purchasing to ensure compatibility.
