My local 'hall recently installed LED tubes in a Diamond light. Its one of the older full size units. Plenty of light but there are now table-length 'stripe' shadows on the cloth. Do LED's require a different diffuser? The others still have fluorescent tubes and there are no such issues. TIA for any input.
 
I think i found my answer. They used clear tubes instead of frosted. Clear will cause the 'tiger stripes'.

Me too... frosted is probably the best solution, though I bought some semi opaque panels at Home Depot and put them on top of the egg crate diffuser and that worked too, I was just not happy with the amount of lost light. Ended up skipping LED and going with some high CRI fluorescents (frosted) that I'm happy with.
 
Played a tournament yesterday, one of the tables has the big full table square led light above the table, led is the way to go, amazing light.
