The Round Recessed LED Panel 18W 4000K 1620lm Ø205 mm is the ideal LED solution to efficiently replace GE LIGHTING Biax T 26W/840 (F26TBX/840) compact fluorescent lamps. Designed for both professional and residential installations, it combines reduced energy consumption, high lighting quality, and extended lifespan, while integrating easily into existing suspended ceilings.

Developed to meet current lighting standards, this LED panel allows modernization of installations originally equipped with GE LIGHTING Biax T 26W/840, without compromising visual comfort or luminous performance. It represents a reliable, durable, and cost-effective LED alternative to outdated fluorescent technologies.

Thanks to its latest-generation SMD LED technology, the panel ensures instant start-up, stable flicker-free light, and significantly lower energy consumption compared to traditional fluorescent solutions. It effectively replaces fixtures using Biax T 26W, while improving overall installation efficiency.

A perfectly adapted LED alternative to GE LIGHTING Biax T 26W/840

The GE LIGHTING Biax T 26W/840 (F26TBX/840) lamps were widely used in offices, retail stores, corridors, public buildings, and shared spaces. However, their efficiency, warm-up time, and limited lifespan no longer meet modern energy performance standards.

This 18W LED panel delivers a luminous flux of 1,620 lumens, equivalent or superior to a GE Biax T 26W/840, while significantly reducing power consumption. With only 18 W, it provides immediate energy savings while maintaining powerful, uniform, and consistent lighting.

This energy gain translates into long-term savings on electricity bills and a reduced carbon footprint, a major advantage for renovation projects and high-usage installations.

Lighting performance and optimal visual comfort

The recessed LED panel provides uniform light distribution thanks to its wide 120° beam angle, eliminating shadow zones often associated with compact fluorescent sources. With a luminous efficiency of 90 lm/W, it guarantees effective and comfortable lighting for professional and residential environments.

The 4000K neutral white color temperature perfectly matches the lighting output expected when replacing a GE LIGHTING Biax T 26W/840, delivering balanced and natural light. A 6000K cool white version is also available for areas requiring a more dynamic atmosphere.

With a Color Rendering Index (CRI) above 80, colors are reproduced faithfully, significantly enhancing everyday visual comfort.

Durable design and extended lifespan

The panel features optimized construction with efficient thermal dissipation, ensuring LED component stability and longevity.

With an estimated 30,000-hour lifespan, it far exceeds that of GE LIGHTING Biax T 26W/840, significantly reducing maintenance costs and replacement frequency.

Simple installation and ceiling compatibility

Designed for easy replacement of 26W compact fluorescent fixtures, the panel features a Ø205 mm cut-out diameter, ensuring quick integration into most standard suspended ceilings.

Side spring clips enable fast and secure installation, while its slim profile ensures a clean, modern finish.

Electrical safety and reliability

Operating on AC 175–265 V, the panel withstands grid fluctuations. With IP20 protection, it is suitable for dry indoor environments.

The integrated driver provides stable current supply. This model is non-dimmable, ensuring optimal light stability.

An economical, durable, and responsible choice

Replacing a GE LIGHTING Biax T 26W/840 (F26TBX/840) with the Round Recessed LED Panel 18W 4000K 1620lm Ø205 mm means choosing a more efficient, longer-lasting, and cost-effective lighting solution ideal for offices, retail, public buildings, hotels, and residential spaces.

Warranty and peace of mind

This LED panel comes with a manufacturer warranty, ensuring quality and reliability. Its compact format simplifies storage and large-scale deployment.
