Cutting the cost of your lay-ins

Hi, you probably have in your offices grid ceilings with lay-in fittings these will be either four times 18W tubes [square] or four times 36W tubes [rectangular], if these are standard switch start units (ones with a starter) you have the opportunity to save considerable sums of money and will find that there are other benefits included in the price. Here’s a list of the ways you can save and other benefits of upgrading your fittings:-

20% savings on electricity e.g. before upgrade four times 18W fitting uses 81W after upgrade uses 65W that’s actually less than the tube rating!
At least 50% longer tube life – switch start fittings really hammer the tubes when you turn them on, by upgrading you will not only save money on tubes you will also save the cost of changing them, in ideal conditions tubes can last up to twice as long! From the planets point of view this also means less tubes manufactured.
No starters that little cylinder that has to be replaced occasionally, gone! So that’s no cost of fitting and we can stop making those.
Instant start up – no more strobe effect when you turn on the lights, just light
No flicker – many people don’t like fluorescents because it’s not a steady light, actually flickering at mains frequency, after the upgrade to high frequency electronic ballasted units there will be no discernable flicker, happy employees do better work and take less days off.

This is just one of the many ways we can cut your energy use, allowing you to comply with government demands for a 34% cut in energy consumption is our mission.
