3' Fluorescent Tube

[Shutpa]

Have been trying to get a replacement fluorescent tube for my under cabinet kitchen light fitting without success. It's about 30w (the printing has worn off), 3' long by about half an inch wide and has two pins at either end. Anyone any ideas as tio where I might purchase a replacement tube?

Edit: Although the printing has worn off, I believe that the tube is a T4 or T5 and there is no starter.

Best bet is to take the tube along to an electrical wholesaler and get them to match it to one off the shelf. Unless you can be sure of the wattage and whether T4 or T5 then buying on the off-chance will be shooting at a moving target ....

T4 tubes are 4/8" diameter i.e. 1/2 inch.

Hence T5's are 5/8 dia; T8's one inch.

Be very careful with the maker.

The ones from Halolite are a slightly different length to other 30watt ones

Per the above, take it to your local friendly wholesaler and match it.

Thanks for the replies guys. Dont have a local wholesaler where I live but took the old tube to Newcastle today and got a replacement no bother. It turned out to be a T4 24v tube BTW. Thanks again.
