But don't mix the ...

The EL509 and EL519 are very close (close enough to be called equivalent) but the current draw is slightly different. Use all of either type, but not a mix of both at once - you'll also get a bit less power out of the EL519s. In the 80W T8s this probably isn't so bad, but in the 25W version the output would probably drop to 15-20W, which may be too low for your application.
