Dear Customer:
Lightolier's entire emergency ballast line is now OBSOLETE. Please contact (800) 887-9957 to find an equivalent solution.
Your busy office building, like most public facilities, requires sufficient illumination 24/7, even during power failures. Normally this would require you to buy separate emergency standby fixtures. But rather than double-up on the amount of lights, just make your existing fluorescent lights pull double-duty with our self testing 3500 lumen emergency backup ballast from Lightolier.

This dual voltage emergency battery pack features a self diagnostic circuit that perform 30-second tests once monthly as well as a full 90-minute test annually, satisfying UL 924 and NFPA testing standards.
