Florescent Tube Replacement for Phillips F30T12/CW/RS 30-att


Could you please recommend a replacement for my lights? The bulb is a Phillips F30T12/CW/RS 30-watt. I'm not sure if there's a suitable replacement, or if I should replace the fixture entirely- in any case, I could use some product recommendations. 

Based on my review of the Phillips F30T12/CW/RS, it, unfortunately, appears that we do not have any compatible 36” T12 alternatives available. 

Currently, our catalog contains 48” T5 and T8 LED Tube Lights, which would not be compatible with any 36” T12 fixtures. We do sincerely apologize for any impact this may have on your purchase planning. 

As an alternative, you may be interested in our 4000K CENTRIC DAYLIGHT™ Full Spectrum Flicker-Free T8 LED Tube Lights, which are compatible with our line of LED-Ready T8 Fixtures. Unlike older fluorescent fixtures, our line of T8 fixtures does not contain the types of ballasts that are often incompatible with LED power requirements. 

I have a maximum width of 47", which I think will be just a touch too short for the waveform fixtures. Is there a recommended third-party fixture I could use? If not, what's the next option- may be strips? I'm not sure which components I would need. I have two of these single-bulb fluorescent fixtures in a roughly 47x47" box.

Based on the details provided, it seems as though the preexisting fixture would not accommodate the 48" T8 LED Tube Lights. 

We can confirm that our T8 LED Tube Lights can function within any T8 fixture, though they may not be compatible with the ballasts that are often found in those older fixtures. These ballasts were meant to regulate the voltage for fluorescent tube operation in ways that our LED technology is not always compatible with. 

If the fixtures are confirmed to contain incompatible ballasts, these fixtures can be rewired to bypass the ballast to allow for full LED functionality and operation.

If you would prefer to retrofit the fixture to utilize the LED Strip Lights, you might be able to rewire it to utilize a compatible TRIAC Dimmable Power Supply for LED Strip. ​
