* To allow comparison with other lamp data shown, this is source efficacy at expected operating temperature.  Ballasts, drivers and optics will reduce this rating when inside a lighting fixture.  Ballasts, drivers and optical systems may have combined losses of 15-30%.
**  Unless otherwise noted, Visa Lighting supplies High Power Ballasts and Drivers with a ballast factor between .85 and 1.15.  Operating current values with typically be less than listed.
*** Life expectancy at stablized fixture operating temperature.  "L70" is the point in time when the LED emitters reach 70% of their initial rated lumens.
