Thread: LED's in a Fluro tube design?

Has any seen a light the size of a Fluorescent tube but with LED's as the light source?
To confuse this more it appears this tube has TWO rows of LED's, one white and the other Red...
These were for sale at a local auction recently and according to my friend, the seller said they had been in a military warehouse and while this sounds rather odd, from what I can make of the story, the White LED's were the general lighting source and the Reds were wired separately to indicate specific areas of items stored.
So if you were looking for a Tank or a Trenching Tool, the stores staff would flick the appropriate switch from a list and under the Red light area was your items.
I know it sounds weird but it was the Military stores.
According to my friend the 'tubes' have standard 2 pin fluro ends but are they 240V or something else.
As far as I am aware, there were only the tubes on sale, no fittings.
The seller wants $25 for a group of either 8 or 10 tubes and as my friend had spent what he had earlier, he didnt worry about them although like me he is very curious as to what they are.
If they are 240V I could easily use a couple at least so any information would be appreciated.
