What is the difference between led tube T5 T8

What is the difference between led tube T5 T8

  T8 led tube and T5 led tube are originally two specifications of led tube, except for the difference. In fact, they also have the same points, and generally no one pays attention. Just noticed the difference between the led tube T5T8. Shenzhen Benwei Lighting will point it out to you and let you know about it.

 

1. What are the similarities between LED tubes T5 and T8

1. The light-emitting principle is the same

The light-emitting principle is the same, using LED lamp beads as the solid light source, and also using the LED constant current power supply to drive the LED tube to emit light. CRI, color temperature, light effect and other parameters can all be consistent. The same energy saving,

Environmental friendly.

2. The basic structure of the led tube T5 and T8 is the same

It consists of three parts

The shell is made of aluminum + PC lampshade

The light source is composed of aluminum substrate + led lamp beads

The driving power supply uses DC voltage to drive the LED light source to work.

3. The same power-on mode

 The power-on mode is generally divided into single-ended power-on and double-ended power-on. If it is a traditional fluorescent tube, a ballast is needed to start. They are all in common.

4. The length and size are called the same

The lengths of T8 T5 led tubes are collectively referred to as

0.6 meters, 0.9 meters, 1.2 meters, 1.5 meters. But the actual size is different. Will be discussed below

2. What is the difference between Benwei led tube T5T8

 

1. What is T5 led tube

To put it simply, the T letter refers to the English tube. Tube, 5 is also the English size, which is 16mm in metric system. This value usually refers to the diameter of the tube.

 

2. What is T8 led tube

 It has the same meaning as T5 led tube and will not be described again. The diameter of the T8 tube is 26mm. In other words, the early T8 T5 lamps came from the United Kingdom. Because the British industrial revolution was early, they invented the fluorescent tube. Then it was promoted to the whole world, and it has been carried forward to the present.

 However, our country uses the international standard unit, so there is a conversion problem in the size, and the name is the same. The production size standards are different.

 

3. The difference between LED tube T8 T5 diameter

 It has been introduced from point 1.2 above. The main difference is the big difference in diameter. 26-16=10mm, the difference is 10mm. Therefore, when the two LED tubes are put together, even a layman can tell at a glance. The thin tube is the T5led tube, and the thick tube is the T8led tube. very obvious.


4. What is the difference between LED tube T5T8-length difference,

Although the length of T5led tube and T8led tube are called the same. But the actual size is different

The actual size of the T5led tube length is

0.6 m 549

0.9 meters 849

1.2m 1149

1.5 meters 1449

Actual size of T8led tube length

0.6 m 588

0.9 meters 895

1.2m 1198

1.5 meters 1498

Therefore, it is necessary to understand in the actual procurement process of lamps and lanterns, and they cannot be used if they are wrong.

5. What is the difference between the led tube T5T8 and the bracket difference,

The T5 bracket should be shorter and narrower in width. The bracket is made of iron sheet and aluminum. It looks relatively small.

The T8 bracket should be longer and wider. After all, it must correspond to the corresponding T8 tube. Fortunately, the size difference between led tube and ordinary tube is small. Therefore, the corresponding bracket is universal.

6. The width and length of the LED tube T5T8 light board are different;

The T5led lamp tube is thin, so the aluminum profile of the tube is small, and the aluminum heat dissipation position is small, and the corresponding aluminum substrate has a natural size change.

The T8 led tube is bigger. The aluminum substrate is relatively wide. Generally, it is more used in 9.6-10mm.

Therefore, T5 led tube and T8 led tube are two sets of different materials, so the material preparation is separate.

7. The structure difference of LED tube T5T8

I talked about the similarity of the structure before. In fact, the difference is quite large. For the split T5 led tube, due to its small size, Benwei Technology had to design the power supply on the led light board, and directly mount the components on the chip during patch processing.

The T8 led tube has a large space and can be built-in drive power. The power supply is diverse and flexible

8. What is the difference between LED tube T5 and T8?

Objectively speaking, the aluminum material of solar street light led tube has good heat dissipation effect, which indicates that the life of T8led tube is longer than that of T5 led tube. We at Benwei Lighting suggest that you try to consider T8led tubes.

9. The brightness difference between LED tube T5 and T8

Look at it in actual production. T8 led tube is flexible, and the light effect can be different. Because there are different power matching. T5 led tube power supply is not as wide as T8led tube, so in general, T8led tube brightness is easier to do than T5 led tube brightness. So the brightness is different

 

10. The difference between the light-emitting angle of the LED tube T5 and T8

 The T8 led tube has a thicker tube and the light-emitting angle is larger than that of the T5 led tube. But in theory, they are all 120 degrees of light-emitting angle. The tube's coarse irradiation area is much larger, which is also common sense

 

11. The difference between LED tube T5 and T8 materials

 The penetration rate of T8 led tubes is higher than that of T5 led tubes. T8 led tube materials are not out of stock. Our Shenzhen Benwei Lighting has a large number of stocks for a long time, and the delivery is fast. Generally, T5 led tube materials need to be customized, and the delivery speed is relatively slow.


11. What is the difference between LED tube T5 and T8? Packaging difference

The T8led tube packaging looks the same in appearance, but the length is different. Our Shenzhen Benwei lighting package has two types. A small package of 30 pieces and a large package of 50 pieces. It is convenient for flexible shipment.

T5 led tube packaging, T8led tube packaging can also be used to achieve material sharing. It's just that the number will double.

 

There are 30 T8led tubes corresponding to T5led tubes, and 60 tubes will be installed.

50 T8LED tubes correspond to T5led tubes, 100 will be installed

 

12. The difference between the types of LED tubes T5 and T8

There are many more types and styles of T8 led tubes than T5led tubes.

For example, T8 led tube can derive many products with different functions.

  Integrated T8 led tube, waterproof tube, emergency tube, radar sensor tube, dimming tube, dimming and color temperature LED tube, rotating tube, ring tube, ultraviolet tube, plant tube, Yellow light tube

T5 led tube derivation range is narrow and the types that can be derived are

Integrated T5 led tube, emergency led tube, dimming led tube
