Help Me Identify My Retrofit

Which LED Retrofit Is Right for Your Facility?

Selecting the right LED retrofit starts with the existing lamp and fixture, not with wattage alone. Use this process before ordering.

Step 1

Identify the Existing Lamp

Record the manufacturer, model number, lamp type, wattage and fixture type.

Step 2

Identify the Electrical System

Confirm voltage, base or connector, ballast if present, wiring configuration and any dimming or controls.

Step 3

Determine the Required Output

Compare delivered lumens, current light level, mounting height and fixture spacing rather than wattage alone.

Step 4

Match the Light Distribution

Determine whether the project needs narrow directional light, medium or wide flood distribution, or broader 360° illumination.

Step 5

Verify Current Documentation

Review the current spec sheet, installation instructions, ballast compatibility when applicable, input voltage, dimming, fixture orientation and environmental ratings.

Do Not Choose by Wattage Alone

Compare delivered lumens, beam pattern, mounting height, fixture geometry and the required light level. Lamps with similar lumen ratings can create very different results because of light distribution.

Key Benefits

Why Retrofit Existing Commercial Fixtures?

Lower Installation Disruption

Retrofitting may allow usable fixtures and housings to remain in place when the application and current product documentation support it.

Reduce Maintenance

Longer-life LED products can help reduce relamping in difficult-to-access commercial fixtures.

Lower Energy Use

LED retrofit products can deliver required illumination using less power than many legacy lighting technologies.

Simplify Inventory

Multi-wattage and Multi-CCT products can reduce the number of fixed lamp configurations facilities need to stock.

Actual energy savings, lamp life and retrofit compatibility depend on the existing system and selected HyLite product.

LED Retrofit FAQs

Can I reuse my existing fixture when switching to LED?

Often, but not universally. Compatibility depends on the fixture, lamp, base or connector, voltage, ballast or wiring configuration and the selected HyLite product. Confirm the current product documentation before installation.

Are HyLite LED retrofit lamps suitable for enclosed fixtures?

Some current HyLite products are rated for fully enclosed fixtures, but this varies by product and model. Confirm the current specification sheet for the exact lamp.

Which HyLite products offer selectable wattage and CCT?

Several current HyLite product families provide selectable wattage and color temperature, including OptiMax Tube Lights, Omni-Bulb, Plug-In VL Lamp, Lotus PAR38, Lotus PAR56/PAR64, Omni-Cob and Intigo Omni-Directional.

Do HyLite retrofit lamps require a ballast?

It depends on the product. Some products can operate through specifically approved compatible ballasts, some require ballast bypass or direct wiring, and some provide multiple installation modes. Always verify the exact model and current instructions.

Are all HyLite retrofit lamps dimmable?

No. Dimming capability varies by product, input voltage and control system. Confirm the current specification sheet before selecting a lamp for a dimming application.

How do I know which retrofit product I need?

Send HyLite the existing lamp model, fixture type, voltage, base or connector, ballast information when applicable, photos and project quantity. That gives the team the information needed to identify the product family that should be reviewed.

Where can I find current specification sheets?

Visit the HyLite Spec Sheets page or follow the resource links on each current product page.
