Daylight (5000K) - Ceiling Fan Rated - Light Bulbs - The Home Depot

Question 1

I'm looking for a tubular bulb for my fixture, and I see "T8," "T5," and "T12" listed. What do these "T" numbers mean, and how do they differ?

Accepted Answer

The "T" in these codes indicates a tubular shape, often used for fluorescent or LED tubes, and the number represents the tube diameter in eighths of an inch; thus, a T8 bulb is 1 inch in diameter, while a T5 bulb is 5/8 of an inch, and a T12 is 12/8 of an inch (or 1.5 inches), with the smaller diameter often correlating to newer, more energy-efficient models. Choose the correct number that matches the socket in your fixture.

Question 2

Which light bulb base type do I need?

Accepted Answer

To determine the right light bulb, identify the base type by checking the existing bulb or the fixture. We carry base types such as candelabra, intermediate, and medium.

Question 4

How do I choose the right bulb color?

Accepted Answer

Question 5

I want to upgrade to LED bulbs, but I'm unsure if the base will fit. What common base types might I encounter, and what should I consider?

Accepted Answer

Common bases for LED upgrades include the screw-in E26 (standard medium base), smaller E12 (candelabra), and bi-pin bases like GU10 or G4. When upgrading, always match your existing base code; however, some LEDs, such as the E26, are offered in other base types, such as the GU10, for use in many common fixtures. Be sure to double-check to ensure you select the correct base.
