What is the difference between LED tube T5 and T8, do you know?
With more and more types of LED tubes, everyone's mind is a little confused, and it is really unclear. Today, let's take LED tubes as an example! Many people don't know the difference between LEDT5 and T8 tubes. Now, let's find out together!
The size of LED T5 tube and LED T8 tube is different. The size of the T8 tube is 26MM, while the size of the T5 tube is smaller, 16MM, and the diameter of the T5 tube is also smaller.
The LED T5 tube uses rare earth tricolor phosphors. Compared with the T8 tube in terms of energy consumption, the LED T5 tube is more energy-efficient. Therefore, the T5 tube is more energy-efficient and more environmentally friendly than the T8 tube.
If you compare the service life of T8 and T5 tubes, the life of T5 tubes is longer. Because the T5 tube adopts new technology, the loss rate becomes lower, so the lifespan is longer.
Likewise, there is a difference in brightness between the two. Because the size of the T5 tube is smaller and the brightness generated when it is energized is also smaller, so the T8 tube should be brighter. If you choose a bright tube, choose a T8 tube, and if you choose a darker tube, choose a T5 tube.
T8 and T5 tubes are also different in use and place. T8 tubes are generally used in public areas, factories, hospitals and other places, and the probability of appearing is almost higher; while T5 tubes are generally used in the field of home improvement.
Therefore, when we choose these two kinds of tubes, we must choose according to our own needs, and choose the most suitable tube according to their own characteristics.
