Applications

Wherever HID lighting is being driven by magnetic ballasts, Empower can improve light quality, reduce energy consumption and operating costs and extend lamp life.  Here are some examples:

Service station canopy and pole lighting -

Replace magnetic ballasts with Empower ballasts, use lower wattage lamps and our integral programmable dimming to reduce operating expense by more than 45% while maintaining light levels and extending lamp life.

Sample Empower implementation:  Southern California Arco Stations

Recreational lighting

Because Empower ballasts virtually eliminate lumen depreciation, you can replace magnetic ballasts with them AND reduce lamp wattage while producing sufficient and more consistent light.  We commonly replace 1000 watt metal halide lamps with 750 watt lamps and have users comment on how much brighter the playing surface and area appears.

Sample Empower Implementation: San Diego Indoor Soccer

Municipal street lighting

For applications demanding high lumen output white light, metal halide lamps are the technology of choice. Empower ballasts make them 30 – 40% more efficient meaning that you can have both optimal quality light and energy efficiency.

Sample Empower implementation: Firewheel Town Center and Mall Access Road, Garland, TX
