DISCONTINUED. Potential Substitute: Iota I-420-EM-A Emergency Ballast

As the new maintenance man, you realize there is no backup lighting in your buildings outdoor areas. The second a power failure occurs, personnel will be trapped inside without light to guide them, not to mention you'll lose your job. Luckily the answer to all your problems lies in a little red metal box, better known as the 2 bulb wet location emergency ballast.

Built by Philips Bodine, an industry leader in emergency battery packs, the B4CF2P works one or two lamps at a slightly reduced lumen output for up 90 minutes. When electricity is restored, the B4CF2P goes to sleep and re-initiates your fixtures AC ballast. Why buy another light when you can just turn your CFL or T5 fluorescent light into an emergency unit?
