Keystone KT-LED13T5HE-48GC-840-DX2 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Do I need to remove the fluorescent ballast to install the Keystone KT-LED13T5HE-48GC-840-DX2 T5 tube?
Yes. This is a direct drive (ballast bypass) T5 LED tube, so the existing fluorescent ballast comes out and line voltage is wired straight to the sockets. Once bypassed, the tube runs on anything from 120 to 277V, so the same part works in offices, warehouses, or schools regardless of which commercial voltage feeds the fixture. Plan on a licensed electrician relamping the fixture and labeling it as converted to line voltage.
2) Will a 13W LED T5 tube be bright enough to replace my 28W fluorescent T5 lamps?
The Keystone 4-foot T5 LED puts out 1800 lumens at 13W. That is in the same output neighborhood as a standard 4-foot T5 fluorescent, with roughly half the draw, and the 240-degree beam angle spreads light down and out rather than wasting it into the fixture housing. For open office and warehouse relamps the perceived light level typically holds or improves; for a high-output T5HO fixture pushing well over 2000 lumens per lamp you should expect a drop and verify footcandles before converting a whole building.
3) Does this Keystone T5 LED tube qualify for a utility rebate?
It is DLC 4.0 listed, which is the DesignLights Consortium qualification most commercial utility programs require before they will pay a rebate on a linear LED retrofit. Submit the model number KT-LED13T5HE-48GC-840-DX2 on your rebate paperwork; the program administrator matches it against the DLC qualified products list.
4) Will this 4 foot T5 LED tube fit my existing T5 fixture sockets?
It is built as a 4-foot T5 replacement lamp for standard T5 lampholders, so it drops into the same sockets after the ballast is bypassed. What it will not do is fit a T8 fixture, the pin spacing and tube diameter are different. Measure the lamp you are pulling out: if it is the slim 5/8 inch diameter tube at roughly 46 inches lamp length, you are in T5 territory.
5) Is 4000K the right color temperature for an office relamp, or should I go warmer or cooler?
This tube is 4000K, a neutral white. It reads clean and task-oriented without the blue cast of 5000K, which is why it is the most common pick for offices, classrooms, retail sales floors, and healthcare corridors. If you are relamping only part of a building, match whatever is already installed on the adjacent fixtures, because mixing 3500K and 4000K in the same sightline is obvious once the lights are on.
6) How long before I have to relamp these again?
The Keystone 4-foot T5 LED is rated 50,000 hours. On a 12-hour, 5-day commercial schedule that is roughly 16 years of service, which is the main reason MRO and property buyers convert T5 fluorescent in high-ceiling or hard-access areas: the labor to reach the fixture costs more than the lamp.
7) Is a direct drive LED tube better than a plug-and-play type for my building?
Direct drive, which is what this Keystone tube is, removes the fluorescent ballast from the circuit entirely. You get no ballast to fail later and no compatibility list to check, at the cost of an up-front rewire at each fixture. A plug-and-play tube keeps the existing ballast and installs in seconds, but it depends on that ballast staying healthy and matching the lamp. For a large relamp where you own the building long term, direct drive is the usual choice; for a quick swap in a leased space with good ballasts, plug-and-play wins on labor.
