Energy Saving Parking Lot Light Fixture Retrofits
One of my suppliers and I were discussing Lighting Retrofits, and he told be that FSC Lighting has a new energy efficient light out. The PLI 99100i is an Induction Parking lot light fixture that is available in a 100W or 200W fixture. This fixture is extremely efficient, it has an average lamp life of 100,000 hours compared with a standard Metal Halide lamp that has an average lamp life of 10,000 hours. It’s lamp design has no electrode which allows for installation in high vibration applications. Instant on and instant restrike allow for the lights to be “Full On” immediately compared with Metal Halides that take several minutes to get to full brightness, and can take up to 10 minutes to restart after being shut off. These fixtures are pricey, but the 10 year warranty for the lamp and ballast on all induction fixtures makes that cost worth the savings in lamp and ballast maintenance and replacement. Depending on the situation, it may also be possible to take advantage of lighting retrofit incentives.
If you are looking at lighting retrofits, but were unhappy with the bottom line, it’s time to take a second look with a Phoenix electrical contractor that has enlisted the help of a leader in the lighting retrofit industry.
