T8's Fluorescent to LED - How many bulbs?
Any experiences that could be shared would be appreciated. Is anyone finding they are getting by on a single 700 lumen bulb? On the 18" T8 fluorescent fixtures in my coach, I currently have two standard bulbs. I can find replacement LED bulbs in both 500 and 700 lumens.
I read somewhere that some people are getting by with one led bulb. I assume the 700 lumen bulb. But can't seem to find such a thread after searching my normal boards.
For work areas, like under the kitchen cabinets, I will use two bulbs per fixture (these are 12" T5's). And maybe two 500 lumen bulbs in two of the 18" ceiling fixtures in the kitchen ceiling area. But I was hoping to save some coin by using only one 700 lumen bulb in other ceiling fixtures.
Any opinions or first hand experience on two vs one bulbs, would be appreciated.
TIA,
Smitty
