Legacy Lighting System – Fluorescent Magnetic Ballast Upgrade
On July 2010, the Geochron (North American units) light fixtures were upgraded from magnetic to electronic ballasts. The benefits from this change are:
- longer lasting ballasts
- use less power
The entire light fixtures for instance can be upgraded by just sending in the fixtures themselves. The process costs $90.00. All shipping costs are based on the distance from the factory and the method of shipping. To order please call 1-800-342-1661 or contact us.
Please include a Return Authorization Form for Electronic Ballast Upgrade.
