Cool Blue Technologies Ltd., the worlds leading manufacturer of digital electronic ballasts to the horticulture market announced today a revolution in energy efficiency for the HID lighting marketplace.
“The digital revolution has begun”, explains Mark Martin a spokesperson for the Vancouver Island based Cool Blue Tech. “With the arrival of our new generation digital electronic ballasts we have put over 100 years of old technology behind us and turned the corner towards a much brighter future.”
Cool Blue Tech claims that by simply replacing any old magnetic core style ballast with a new generation Cool Blue digital electronic ballast, end user’s can expect to see up to 30% more lumens produced, less power consumption, virtually no heat by-product and zero noise.
Combine that with 99.9% power efficiency, dual “on the fly” voltage capability 120 ~ 240V, 100% RF (radio frequency) shielded construction and the ability to completely light both Metal Halide (MH) and High Pressure Sodium (HPS) bulbs to full brightness in less than 60 seconds it’s no wonder the industry is buzzing over Cool Blue’s claim.
When asked why digital vs. magnetic and why now? Martin answered simply “more lumens produced per watt of energy consumed means higher yield per dollar spent and this is the bottom line in the horticulture industry today.”
The digital revolution for horticulture has begun and Cool Blue Technologies is clearly leading the way.
