California new Title 20 standards, which went into effect January 1, 2010, created new energy efficiency standards for 150-500W metal halide light fixtures used in indoor and outdoor applications.
These fixtures may not be manufactured in the State of California unless they meet the new standards.
For the most part, the fixture will have to be pulse-start and achieve a higher level of efficiency or be controlled by an occupancy sensor or photocontrol.
Check a new whitepaper I wrote about this subject for the Lighting Controls Association website here.
