Caution:

   

Before installing or operating the lighting, read and understand all safety instructions and warnings.

rEtroFIt InstallatIon

Into an existing fluorescent 
light fixture

Turn off and unplug your 
existing T5 or T8 fluorescent 
light fixture

Allow the lamp to cool for 15 minutes. Remove the 
fluorescent lamp from the fixture. 

The power supply cord 

for the existing light fixture will no longer be used

 and can 

be tied up or bound and placed in a location where it will 
stay dry and out of the way. 

WARNING:

 LIGHT FIXTURE MUST BE UNPLUGGED– 

BIND OR DISCONNECT CORD FROM FIXTURE. 

POWER SHOULD 

NOT

 BE DELIVERED TO THE FIXTURE 

AS THE LED TUBES HAVE THEIR OWN SEPARATE 

POWER SUPPLY.

Install the appropriate end 
adaptors, either T5 or T8, 
that correspond to the 

sockets in the light fixture

The adaptor pins will install into the existing lamp sockets 
like you would a lamp, by inserting the pins and rotating 
them into position. 

See Figure 1. Make sure the adaptor 

openings are facing so that the LED tube(s) can be 
snapped into the adaptor.

Snap the ends of the LED 
light(s) into the adaptors 
and rotate the lamp so the 

LEDs are facing the direction you 
would like the light to shine

You may need to support the adaptor as you snap the LED 
light in place. Route the power cord out of the light fixture 
and connect the plug for each LED tube light to the 1 or 3 
tube transformer (sold separately). Slide the protective 
rubber sleeve over the connection(s) to protect it from 
moisture. Once all connections are made, the transformer 
can be plugged into an acceptable outlet and the eLite LED 
Tube Light is ready for use.
