I installed (16) Maxlite LSV3XT8USE4806 “lamp ready” fixtures with (48) James Industry’s 4 ft. T8 “Magic” 18watt, 5000K LED tubes in March of this year.
16 fixtures with 48 LED tubes: $1,181.76
Installation materials: $476.75
(Mounting hardware, cable, strain reliefs, conduit, boxes, wire nuts, etc.)
Total: $1,658.51
The James “Magic” LEDs operate on 100-277 Volts ac; no ballast or external driver required. Load for the entire 48 lamp system is less than 9 amps!
Operating Dusk-to-Dawn, these LED tubes are should have about 13 years of life expectancy. They’re warranted for 5 years.
With only 6 months in use, I can’t speak to the longevity issue…but, I’m quite pleased with the purchase price, dramatically improved illumination, and reduced electrical expenses.
