• Unmatched Performance: patented
lamp detection technology that virtually
eliminates variations in brightness from
lamp-to-lamp and provides uniform
lighting throughout the dimming range.
At light levels of >75% unnecessary
lamp-coil power is turned off, delivering
energy efficiences comparable to non-
dimming Instant start electronic ballast.
This technology also eases installation
and troubleshooting by recognizing
failed lamps, faulty wiring or loose
connections, and shutting down.
