    Hi guys

    I need a little bit help. I want to replace the old light tube to LED tube in my LotR LE machine.
    I cuted the two black wires ( ballast ) and I cut the black wire from the starter. The neutral is connect to the socket. The yellow cable is the power. I think i need connect the yellow ( power ) with the red cable ( this going to the other socket.) but isnt work the LED tube

    Quoted from Jtm3:

    Check the documentation that came with the LED tube. Some are fed from one side only and some are fed from each side. Others are plug and play which still require the ballast (but not the starter I think, which can just be removed, not cut out)

    I ordered this LED tube from Amazon. I checked the documentation, and for the tube need neutral and power ( L + N ). My question is: what cable need connected?

    Do you have pictures about your backbox

    OP
    Quoted from hoby1:

    First thing you should do is get those batteries off that Whitestar board .

    Ok I will try again without the batteries. Was this the problem maybe?
