We are pleased to offer the innovative T5 Retrofit Kit. At the opposite end of the lighting spectrum from LED, this product is for those whose budgets are limited, yet must meet mandates to reduce energy and resource consumption. This kit allows you to retrofit your existing T12/T8 troffers to T5 and still have a completely UL fixture, as this is a UL Classified (standards 1598 and 1598B) and
CE product. With a ballast rated at 40,000 hours, the kit will accept any standard T5 from any manufacturer. (Note that the high output T5′s are not to be used with this fixture.) We recommend using a standard 6500K for parking lots or warehousing applications and 4100K is perfect for offices, schools and retail applications.
Saving Energy Saves Money
An important advance in fluorescent technology is the development of the T5 lamp. READ MORE
As a plug and play solution, the T5 Retrofit Kit provides an efficient alternative for building upgrades. Comprised of 3 components, the T5 Universal Retrofit Kit is a complete 
conversion system. It is a simple and cost effective solution for commercial lighting. With lamps rated at 20,000 hours with only 10% lumen loss in the first 10,000 hours and adapter (ballast) rated at 40,000 hours, this is a low maintenance product.
The Nano-Reflectors are designed to maintain their brilliant mirror-like finish. Made from 100% aluminum film that does not oxidize, it doubles the amount of light output and leaves a shining reflection that will illuminate the room throughout the lifespan of the kit.
Due to the clever design of the kit, which utilizes a non-oxidizing mirror-finish on the inside of the fixture, the light output is virtually doubled, opening up the possibility of “de-lamping” or removing a lamp or two from each troffer. This process increases overall energy savings up to 83% and reduces hundreds of pounds of CO2 emissions.

Comprised of three components, the T5 Universal Retrofit Kit is a complete conversion system designed to save energy, reduce costs
and help the environment. The T5 tube is an energy efficient lamp rated at 20,000 hours with only 10% lumen loss in the first 10,000 hours. The Nano-Reflectors are designed to maintain its brilliant mirror-like finish. Made from 100% aluminum film that does not oxidize, it increases the amount of light output and leaves a shining reflection that will illuminate the room throughout the lifespan of the kit.
The adapter, or ballast, (rated at 40,000 hours) is a breakthrough in electrical engineering as it contains its own low-powered self-starter and runs flicker free. This combination of the T5 lamp, reflector, and adaptor provides the highest luminous efficacy in its class.
Installation is simple. Bypass the fixture’s ballast, as this kit is self-ballasted with the latest in ballast technology:
- Universal voltage
- 40,000 hour lifespan
- No flicker
Back to that ballast (adaptor) …this is break-through technology in electrical engineering as it contains its own low-powered self-starter and runs flicker free. This combination of the T5 lamp, reflector and adaptor provides the highest luminous efficacy in its class.
