Foot candle readings before and after have been very competitive between the base case fluorescent tubes and the post case LED tubes. Energy reduction results show about 50% and installations are as old as 10 months operating 18 hours per day.

My biggest problem with them is this.... Why are mfg's creating products with the limitation of being in a linear tube? I see no reason they cannot simply use the medium bi-pin sockets to get power and have a 2x4 prismatic panel as the light source itself.
