The Flex DE lamps come in 2-foot 9W, 3-foot 12W, and 4-foot 14W & 18W configurations. The lamps accept universal voltage at both ends (120–277VAC), and are offered in 3500K, 4000K, and 5000K CCTs. The lumen output ranges from 1100 to 2200 lumens depending on the wattage, and have lamp efficacy of 120 lpw, as well as CRI of 83. The 50,000 hour rated lamps come with a 5 year warranty to ensure ROI for commercial retrofits. The Flex DE lamps work with shunted or unshunted sockets and are compatible with controls and sensors. Optically, the lamps feature frosted real glass diffusion with a wide 325 degree beam angle.
