Changes - Emergency Products

September 12, 2007

We were recently informed by Bodine that the B30 emergency battery pack is not rated for the new low mercury compact fluorescent lamps. Lamp manufacturers are rapidly completing the transition to 100% low mercury compact fluorescents. This makes the B30 no longer suitable for use with Gardco or Emco Emergency Remote luminaires. Additionally, the B94C-CAN emergency battery pack is no longer available.

Thus, we are forced to discontinue the B30 and B94C-CAN with Emergency Remote (EMR) products, including Gardco 100 Line EMR Sconces, 110 Line EMR Mini Sconces, 300 Line EMR Cylinders and Emco EV13 EMR V-Sconces.

We fully realize this means there is no high lumen output emergency option, as well as no option that operates two (2) lamps in the emergency mode. We are urgently searching for solutions to both of these issues.

Information on sitelighting.com has been updated to reflect all of these changes.
