LED Retrofit Kits for Strip Light Fixtures

The Jarvis JSK magnetic troffer strip kit installs in approximately 5 minutes per fixture — the LED strips snap into place with magnetic clips and wiring connects to the existing junction box. The JTRFRK troffer retrofit luminaire takes approximately 10 minutes. The SRK/SRK-N linear strip retrofit takes 10–15 minutes. All kits are designed for single-person installation with no specialized tools beyond a screwdriver.

Yes. The Jarvis JSK magnetic strip kit and SRK linear strip retrofit both bypass the existing ballast entirely. The old ballast is disconnected and the LED kit wires directly to line voltage (100-277V). This eliminates the ballast as a failure point and removes the ongoing energy waste of aging magnetic ballasts, which can draw 15–25% more power than their rated wattage as they age.

The Jarvis JSK magnetic troffer strip kit fits 99.9% of existing 2×2 and 2×4 fluorescent troffers — the magnetic clips attach to any steel fixture body regardless of manufacturer. The SRK linear strip retrofit fits standard 4ft fluorescent strip fixtures including T8 and T12 housings. A single SRK retrofits most single or twin-lamp fixtures, and two SRK units mounted end-to-end retrofit an 8ft T12 fixture.

Yes. All Jarvis LED retrofit kits include 0-10V dimming as standard — no additional cost. The JSK and SRK-N series are compatible with Jarvis PhotoMotion occupancy sensors for automatic dimming and on/off control. This meets ASHRAE 90.1 requirements for automatic lighting controls in commercial retrofit projects.

Yes. Jarvis LED retrofit kits are DLC-qualified, which is required by approximately 80% of U.S. utility rebate programs. Typical rebates range from $10 to $40 per fixture for indoor retrofits. For ESCO projects with 50+ fixtures, Jarvis provides bulk rebate documentation packages including DLC product IDs and pre/post wattage calculations.

JSK is a magnetic strip kit for troffers — fastest install, lowest cost, strips snap into existing housing with magnetic clips. SRK/SRK-N is a linear strip retrofit for fluorescent strip fixtures — mounts to the existing fixture body and hides original components behind a new diffuser. JTRFRK is a complete troffer retrofit luminaire — slides into the existing troffer housing with a new diffuser panel, providing the most visually clean result. Choose JSK for speed and volume, SRK for strip fixtures, JTRFRK for appearance.

A 2×4 T12 troffer with magnetic ballast (~140W) drops to 24W with a JSK kit — 83% reduction. A 3-lamp T8 troffer (~99W) drops to 30–45W with JTRFRK — 55–70% reduction. A 4ft 2-lamp T8 strip (~66W) drops to 18–40W with SRK-N — 39–73% reduction. Additional savings of 30–50% are achievable by pairing retrofit kits with occupancy sensors in intermittently occupied spaces.
