PhotonTube vs FilmGrade Strips: Do the strips output a similar amount of photons?

I have a question regarding the output of the FilmGrade Strip in 6500K vs your T5 PhotonTube in 6500K. Do the strips output a similar amount of photons (par, ppf, or lumen) as the T5 Tube configuration? Are they the same diodes? 

We can confirm that the 4-ft PhotonTube™ T5HO LED Grow Light Tubes have an output of 48 umols/sec, which translates to 2087 lumens. This means that one 6500K T5HO Tube Light will have the same output as 4.63 feet of the 6500K FilmGrade™ WHITE LED Strip Lights (which output 450 lumens per foot). As such, the output will be fairly similar by length. 

We can confirm that the PhotonTube™ T5HO LED Grow Light Tubes utilize the 2835 LED size. 

In the event that they prove to be useful, we have attached links to both the 'Lumens to PPF' and 'PPF to Lumens' calculator tools from our website below.
