This ballast fits my Lithonia brand troffer lights from Home Depot without any modification. Unfortunately, the stock ballasts (ACUPRO Model No. AP-432IP-UNV) included with Lithonia troffers are of very poor quality. I have had several original ballasts (fail within 3 years of installation. These ballasts are guaranteed for 3 years and cost a fraction of the price of those found at the big box stores. Additionally, they fit perfectly without drilling out the light.

I would not ordinarily bother leaving a review of the purchase of light bulbs, but I am so pleased with this purchase that I want to share the great experience. In my house there are three different fixtures that use G9 bulbs. I purchased and installed those three fixtures, each of which uses three G9 bulbs, back in 2012 when I bought the house. Since that time I have converted to almost all LED bulbs throughout the house, but have not had luck finding G9 LEF bulbs at local stores so the three fixtures remained with halogen bulbs. The halogen bulbs put out nice light but they burn incredibly hot and use a lot of energy. I finally wanted to make the switch to LED bulbs for these fixtures. I bought 9 bulbs from another seller and hated the color of light and the sloppy fit of the bulbs in the fixture. Those were returned. I then gave these a try and I could not be any happier. The light output is similar to the halogen though I like it even better - it's bright light and nicely distributed light without being harsh. So now I have three of these bulbs in each of the three fixtures that use G9 bulbs (kids' bathroom, a study, and a home office) and I could not be happier. Now instead of paying for electric consumption to produce light and a bunch of intense heat in these fixtures, the energy being used is going almost entirely to production of light. I'm also pleased with the base - the bulbs are seated in the fixture better than was the case with my first purchase (different seller and different bulb manufacturer). Bulb is listed as PLT ******* G9 LED - 4W - 380 Lumens - 3000 Kelvin 120 Volt - I guess it's equivalent to 40w bulbs but honestly it seems slightly brighter and crisper than the 49w halogens that had been in the fixtures.

These fixtures were exactly the right size and the install was as simple as could be. The delivery was timely and the lights were on again in short order.

When my kitchen light went out, i bought new florescent bulbs but still didn't work properly. After trying to find a new ballast locally, a sales person suggested 1000 bulbs and even looked it up at his store to find the correct one. When I got home went on line to order product and noticed the note to call with any questions which I did. I sure am glad because I chose the incorrect ballast and your sales person found the correct one and suggested that it was a good time to also upgrade to a more efficient ballast and new bulbs. Sales person was kind, polite, very efficient and extremely helpful! FANTASTIC JOB, the parts worked perfect!

Had great service from 1000Bulbs in the past, but I've reached out 3 times now for a warranty item and have not heard from anyone yet.

Poor customer service
September 26, 2019

I ordered a box of florescent bulbs for my company. After 2 weeks of waiting, I called and
They said they had accidentally shipped them to a different company and would send another box asap. After a week of waiting, I called and they forgot to order them. In the meantime, I received a ballast that I did not even order. They told me to throw it away and that my bulbs were on their way. We shall see...

Poor customer service
September 26, 2019

I received a case of tubes several of which were broken. The case was obviously damaged before it went into the shipping box. They gave me credit for the broken tubes but would not replace them.

Product was great, dealing with the billing was a nightmare! I had ordered 1 case of 50 bulbs online. The representative contacted me after submitting the online order to tell me he had the same bulbs available at a cheaper rate, and did I want that instead? Of course I said yes. He generated a second invoice without cancelling the original one. I got sent 2 cases of 50 bulbs at about $145 each, twice the amount I was expecting to pay and twice the amount of bulbs I needed.To make matters worse, I asked for my $104 credit to be applied to one of the invoices. The rep and accounting people are completely confused by all of this. HORRIBLE experience. It's been 3 weeks now and i'm STILL dealing with this... DO NOT ORDER BY PHONE WITH A REPRESENTATIVE!

I had a problem with a LED flood light I had purchased from 1000 bulbs. It had a five year warranty and went out in the forth year. It was discontinued so it could not be replaced. They refunded my purchase price in full.

Exactly what I wanted!
September 24, 2019

Good looking light bulb for a pendant light fixture which is open and meant to show the bulb.
Well packed for safe shipping also.
The color of light the bulb emits is exactly the right tone I wanted - not too warm, more towards white light.
Very happy with this purchase and it was very inexpensive too.

Lamps didn't fit.
September 19, 2019

They must be knock offs or seconds becaus they were about 1/4 of an inch to long.
Ordered 2- F16T4 6400K lamps and they were 1/4/" longer than the GE lamps that came out of the fixture.
I will not order from here again.
