T5, T8, and T12 refer to the diameter of fluorescent light tubes, measured in eighths of an inch. A T5 tube is ⅝ inch in diameter, T8 is 1 inch (8/8), and T12 is 1.5 inches (12/8). These differences affect efficiency, brightness, and fixture compatibility. In general, T5 and T8 tubes are more energy-efficient and offer better light output compared to the older, bulkier T12 models, making them a preferred choice for modern lighting upgrades.
