LED Fluorescent Bulbs - EVERLED


  • Fluorescent tubes... incredibly toxic, full of heavy metals such as mercury and lead.
  • can be fitted on standard fluorescent tube fittings without any additions or changes to the ballasts
  • manufacturer claims that the product has a 10 year lifespan
  • energy reduction of about 20% from standard installations
  • main model comes in a standard length of 4 feet
  • $150 a tube (WOW! - would have to see life cycle costing to be able to sell it to a client i'd bet)
