increasing visibility and safety,
operating more efficiently than legacy lighting,
easier use,
for temporary or permanent applications,
certified for up to 256 watts per strip,
UL-listed,
plugs into 110VAC outlet,
won’t cast shadows,
an optional Visual Alert Control System (VACS) version changes colors based on safety hazards and can “chase” during emergencies in the direction of exits.
