Dallas Light Bulb - An ENERGY STAR Partner. We believe that you will find our site
to offer the widest selections of HID to CFL Retrofits available on the web!
According to the
US Environmental Protection Agency’sEnergy Star Program, lighting consumes 25
to 40 percent of the energy used in commercial buildings. This has increased
the demand for more energy-efficient lighting selections. Lighting within
buildings accounts for 23 percent of national electrical consumption.
The screw base CFL light bulb will provide you the flexibility to
achieve your lighting goals and lower energy costs. For instance a common
warehouse high bay fixture with a 16" acrylic refractor makes the process
easier when figuring out which CFL bulb is the best solution. These CFL light
bulbs offer the flexibility to obtainlight levels to suit your application. CFL light bulbs best suited for
these types of applications come in a variety of wattages such as 42W, 68W,
85W, 105W, 150W & 200W . The 42W, 68W, 85W, & 105W watt CFL light bulbs
have the option of medium or mogul base. The 150W & 200W CFL light bulb is available
in mogul base only. Socket adapters are available for reducing or enlarging the
socket size. CFL light bulbs are
compatible with 120V or 277V circuitry depending on the existing
electrical system.
In closing, most
applications that have retrofitted CFL high bay fixtures offer many
benefits such as exceptional energy savings. Some environments that are most beneficial
to this change are: convention centers, distribution centers, gymnasiums,
schools and warehouses. If you can make changes that will allow you save you
dollars on your bottom line, why not change from high wattage incandescent
lamps and retrofit those existing HID fixtures with a lower wattage maximum
light output energy saving CFL light bulb. Going green is important for the
environment and for our future. Make the green choice and start saving energy
