Can I Replace Fluorescent Bulbs with LED in My Fixtures?

Asked By BrightStar_88 On

I've got some of those old Home Depot 'boob' light fixtures in a few places around my house. While I'm updating many lights to LEDs, I really don't like the color cast from the fluorescents. I want to switch to LED bulbs, but the ones I found don't have the screw-in base; they have two prongs instead. Are there LED bulbs that will fit in these fixtures without replacing the whole thing? Or could I swap out the connection socket? Here's a link to a picture of my fixture for reference: https://imgur.com/a/FBgy83d

You should look for GU24 LED bulbs. They’re not as common as other types, but they are available! A quick search online should help you find some options.

LED bulbs for those GU24 bases do cost a bit, like around $10 each if you check out places like Menards. I had a similar fixture and considered going LED, but in the end, it was more affordable to just replace the whole fixture instead.
