FAQs

Do I need a ballast to use this LED lamp?

No, this LED lamp requires the existing electronic ballast to be bypassed or removed. It is designed to run directly on AC mains power.

Who should perform the ballast bypass installation?

Ballast bypass involves working with mains voltage and should only be performed by a qualified electrician to ensure safety and proper installation.

What is the color temperature of this lamp?

This lamp has a color temperature of 4000K, which is considered neutral white.

What is the lumen output and power consumption?

The lamp produces 800 lumens while consuming only 8W of power.

Can I use this lamp in any G24q fixture?

You can use it in any G24q 4-pin fixture, provided the electronic ballast is correctly bypassed and the fixture's ambient operating temperature does not exceed 40°C.

What is the lifespan of this LED lamp?

LED lamps typically offer a long lifespan, significantly longer than traditional CFLs. Specific rated lifespan details should be checked with the manufacturer's specifications.

Is this lamp dimmable?

This product description does not specify dimmability. It is designed for standard on/off operation.

Troubleshooting

Lamp does not turn on

Verify that the fixture's power is on and that the ballast has been correctly bypassed. Ensure the lamp is fully seated in the G24q socket.

Flickering or inconsistent light

Check the wiring connections after ballast bypass for any loose contacts. Ensure the AC mains voltage is stable within the 230-240V range.

Lamp overheats or shuts off

Confirm that the ambient operating temperature does not exceed 40°C. Ensure the fixture is not enclosed in a way that prevents heat dissipation.

Reduced light output over time

This is uncommon with LEDs. Ensure no obstructions are blocking light and that the fixture is clean. Contact support if the issue persists.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Safety First: Ensure power to the fixture is completely switched off at the breaker.
  2. Ballast Bypass: The existing electronic ballast *must* be removed or bypassed. This step should be performed by a qualified electrician.
  3. Direct Wiring: Once the ballast is bypassed, the lamp can be wired directly to the AC mains power (230-240V).
  4. Installation: Insert the LED lamp into the G24q 4-pin socket and rotate to the desired position.
  5. Power On: Restore power at the breaker and test the lamp.

Compatibility:

  • Socket Type: Compatible only with fixtures using a G24q 4-pin socket.
  • Voltage: Designed for 230-240V AC mains power.
  • Ballast: Requires the *removal* of the electronic ballast; not compatible with magnetic ballasts or direct plug-in replacements for ballasted lamps.
  • Environment: Suitable for ambient operating temperatures up to 40°C.

Care:

  • Clean the lamp lens periodically with a dry or slightly damp soft cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents.
  • Ensure ventilation around the fixture is not obstructed to maintain optimal operating temperatures.
