All 3 of those bulbs have single pin ends. The tombstones on the existing T8/T12
fixtures will need to be replaced.


Wrong!
They are *EIGHT FOOT* - single pin is the norm.

Buyers need to read the specs. If they don't come with tombstones, they will need
to be purchased separately.


Those with T8/T5 *instant start ballasts* (shunted tombstones)
will need to be replaced *IF* they go the direct wire method.
