Light It Technology
DC Lighting Fixtures
All of the fixtures and custom designed ballasts and sockets listed on
pages
82 to 88 are manufactured by Light It Technology located in Montana. They have been designing and manufacturing DC lighting for at least 10 years. It was a great step forward when we started to offer LIT equipment over what was then available. These fixtures start instantly and without the annoying flicker the old style fixtures exhibited. Many of their ballasts power different size bulbs while remaining at least 95% efficient for each size. This is a real convenience for those of you who might change your mind about what size light is needed in any given space. We have had great success with this lighting equipment. If you want to use DC lighting, these are excellent fixtures to use.
Lamp Notes
When a bulb is showing signs of hard starting it needs to be replaced. If you notice black areas around the base, or a violet glow at the base of the glass for more than a few seconds while starting, its time to replace the bulb.
Ballast and socket damage at end of bulb life can be prevented by installing a small fuse at the fixture. We now include a 2 amp auto blade fuse and holder with all our ceiling fixtures. See our DC fuses on
page 59.
All products from LIT have a one
year limited warranty. See page 84 for
installation information and other tips for using DC compact fluorescent lights.
12 Volt and 24 Volt
DC Compact Fluorescent Bulbs
S/E Fixtures
These fixtures consist of an electronic DC ballast and a replaceable compact fluorescent bulb. S/E stands for "Single Loop/Electronic" which means the bulb has one loop and is made to work with an electronic ballast. The ballast is fitted with a standard screw base and can be used in lamps or fixtures powered by 12 or 24 volts DC. They start instantly every time. They will also function to at least 0oF. However low voltage (under 12V or 24V) and/or frequent on-off cycles will shorten their life. The bulb has a rated life of 10,000 hours. The ballast should last 45,000
hours. The S/E bulb comes in 5, 7, 9 and 13 watt sizes. The same ballast is used for all four bulb wattages, so bulbs can be interchanged in the future.
S/E Replacement Tubes
These tubes can be used either as replacement tubes for our DC compact fluorescent bulbs or for use in your own fixtures using the S/E sockets listed on
page 79 and ballasts listed on page
84.

D/E and T/E Fixtures 
The D/E and T/E fixtures are the same as the S/E fixtures.
They consist of an electronic DC ballast and a replaceable compact fluorescent
bulb. The ballast is fitted with a standard screw base and can be used in lamps or fixtures powered by 12 or 24 volts DC. They start instantly
every time. They will also function to at least 0oF. However low voltage (under 12V or 24V) and/or frequent on-off cycles will shorten their life. The bulb has a rated life of 10,000 hours. The ballast should last 45,000 hours.

Globe Adapters
for 13W D/E Fixtures
This adapter is used to convert 13W D/E and 5W to
7W S/E compact fluorescent bulbs into a globe configuration. It comes with a round threaded metal bracket that attaches to the ballast body with two small screws. The globe plastic adapter has a threaded plastic base which screws onto the metal
bracket.
