How to Choose the Best LED Tubes in New Zealand
Share
LED tubes are a reliable, energy-efficient, and long-lasting lighting solution for homes and businesses. They reduce energy consumption, provide better light quality, and are more environmentally friendly than traditional lighting. Here’s a quick guide to help you choose the right LED tube for your needs.
1. Size and Compatibility
Choose the correct LED tube length for your fixture—600mm, 1200mm, or 1500mm. Ensure the base type (T5, T8, or T12) and wattage are compatible with your setup. At Greenled.co.nz, we offer 1200mm and 1500mm single-ended power T8 tubes with a G13 base, complete with an LED starter for easy installation.
2. Brightness (Lumens)
Focus on the lumen output rather than wattage. For general lighting, aim for 1200-1800 lumens per tube. Brightness should match or exceed your existing tube’s output. At Greenled, we provide 50% Brighter Premium LED Tube Lights NZ, ensuring optimal illumination for your space.
3. Colour Temperature (Kelvin)
Colour temperature significantly impacts the ambiance of your space:
- Warm White (2700K-3000K): Ideal for cozy, relaxing spaces like living rooms or bedrooms.
- Cool White (4000K-5000K): Perfect for kitchens, bathrooms, and workspaces.
- Daylight (5000K-6500K): Suited for offices, warehouses, and areas requiring bright, crisp lighting.
At Greenled, our LED tubes are optimized at 5000K, delivering a natural and comfortable balance of brightness. Unlike 6500K, which can feel too harsh, and 4000K, which may not be bright enough, our 5000K tubes are ideal for professional and workspace settings.
4. Quality and Warranty
Choose LED tubes from trusted brands that hold certifications such as SAA (Standards Association of Australia), ensuring safety and premium quality. Opt for products with warranties to guarantee long-term reliability and peace of mind.
5. Energy Efficiency
LED tubes consume up to 80% less energy than traditional fluorescent lights, reducing your electricity bills. At Greenled, our LED tubes are engineered for maximum efficiency without compromising brightness, helping you save money while being environmentally conscious.
Conclusion
LED tubes are a smart, cost-effective, and energy-efficient choice for lighting your home or business. To select the best tube, consider the size, brightness, color temperature, and quality.
