I don't know what the technical stuff is but I can tell you that t5 technology is the latest and greatest thing in lighting. It is the most effeciant and brightest of the flourescent lights. A lot of retail stores are putting them in new as opposed to the old hid light fixtures. Check the ceiling the next time you go into a Sams or Home Depot, they both use them in their new stores. The lamps themselves are smaller, as are the ballast; they burn less electricity and provide a brighter more natural light. Also as opposed to hid fixtures; they do not require a cool down or warm up time. A good lighting rep can give you the proper percentages of effency and briteness. Check either the Lithonia or Cooper lighting websites and they might tell you the same thing.

Can you upgrade to T5 fluorescent bulbs but not replace the fixture?
Since T5 bulbs are shorter than their T12 or T8 counterparts, they do not naturally fit into fixtures designed for T12 or T8 bulbs. Luckily, there are companies that offer retrofit kits that can allow you to use T5 bulbs in fixtures not designed for them. A company called Lumiversal makes two different types of these retrofits. These retrofits are a great way to save money and electricity plus you can rebates and incentives from your utility providers to help cover the cost.
