RAB T8HO-40-96G-FA8-850-DE-BYP – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Does the RAB T8HO 8-foot LED tube run on the existing fluorescent ballast, or do I have to rewire the fixture?
The T8HO runs on its own constant current driver on 120-277V line voltage, so the fixture has to be wired direct to line, not through the old fluorescent ballast. Plan on pulling the ballast and wiring the sockets to line power. That is one-time labor per fixture, but it also means no ballast left in the fixture to fail later.
2) Is the RAB T8HO 8-foot tube double-ended or single-ended wiring?
Double-ended. The T8HO 8-foot FA8 tubes are double-ended ballast-bypass lamps (the -DE-BYP in model T8HO-40-96G-FA8-840-DE-BYP), meaning line goes to one end socket and neutral to the other. Wire it that way or the lamp will not light.
3) How much light does a 40W 8-foot LED tube give compared to the 8-foot fluorescent it replaces?
The RAB T8HO puts out 5500 lumens at 40 watts. An 8-foot F96T12 slimline draws around 60W and an F96T8 around 59W for comparable or lower output, so you cut roughly a third of the connected load per lamp while keeping the light level in a warehouse or shop bay.
4) Does the RAB T8HO qualify for a utility rebate?
The T8HO is DLC listed to DLC version 5.1, which is the qualification most utility prescriptive rebate programs key on for linear replacement lamps. You will still submit the model number (for example T8HO-40-96G-FA8-850-DE-BYP) to your utility, since rebate amounts and eligible categories are set by the program, not by the lamp.
5) Which color temperature should I order for a warehouse versus an office?
Three choices on the 8-foot T8HO: 3000K, 4000K, and 5000K. 4000K is the usual pick for offices, retail, and schools where you want neutral white that does not read blue. 5000K is common in warehouses, shops, and manufacturing where crisp task visibility matters. 3000K reads warm and suits hospitality or areas being matched to existing warm lamping. Whichever you choose, order the whole room the same, mixed color temperature on an open ceiling is obvious.
6) How long before I have to relamp the 8-foot RAB T8HO?
Rated life is 50,000 hours. On a warehouse running two shifts, roughly 4,000 hours a year, that is about 12 years before rated end of life. On 24/7 operation, about 5-1/2 years. For a facility that has been relamping 8-foot fluorescents every year or two, the labor saved on high-bay ladder work is usually the bigger number than the energy.
7) Will the RAB T8HO work on a 277V circuit without a different part number?
Same lamp either way. The T8HO driver accepts 120-277V, so one part number covers a 120V shop, a 208V bay, and a 277V commercial lighting branch. For a facility standardizing across buildings on different service voltages, that is one SKU to stock instead of several.
8) Is the RAB T8HO LED tube flicker-free enough for offices, classrooms, and cameras?
Flicker is rated at 0.5 percent on the T8HO, which is low enough that it will not show up on camera as banding and will not contribute to the eye strain complaints that come with cheap driver lamps. That matters in classrooms, healthcare exam areas, and any space with security video.
9) Is the RAB T8HO tube clear or frosted, and does that change how it looks in an open fixture?
Clear lens. That gives maximum light transmission, which is what you want in a strip fixture or an industrial reflector where the lamp is aimed down into the space. In an open, eye-level application a clear lens shows the individual diodes, so if glare is a concern in an occupied office, put it behind a lens or wrap.
