History is made at “The Rock” !

History is made at “The Rock” !

 On This Day, There Was Going To Be A Game To Remember, Regardless of Who Won!    The location and date had been set; Clearwater, Florida August 26, 2011 at 7:30pm, just as the sun was starting to drop into the western sky. This was not just another hot summer day on Florida’s west coast. On this day, there was going to be a game to remember, regardless of who won. The uniforms helmets, and pads were all there, ready to go. Adrenline, anticipation and apprehension were high on both sides of the field as the appointed time drew near. The two teams had been training long and hard for this day, for this game, and they were ready to play.  The Kick off  itself Marked a Memorable Milestone! Facing off on the gridiron from Clearwater, Florida were the Calvary Christian High School Warriors and from Lakeland, Florida the Santa Fe Catholic High School’s Hawks. The kick off itself marked a memorable milestone, a memorable night at the “The Rock”, the name given to Calvary Christian High School’s new sports facility. The delightful smell of  un-healthy food wafted from the concession areas and carried through the spectator stands as parents cheered on their boys and their teams. As the hot summer day turned into a balmy Florida night, the game wore on, and after the last play of the game, and the referee’s final whistle blew, the new Daktronics JumboTron scoreboard showed that the boys from Lakeland Hawk’s had pulled off a win over their Clearwater rivals with a final score of 36 to 27, but everyone there from both sides had become a part of the (more…)

Peru – The Lighter Side of Business

Peru – The Lighter Side of Business

  On the Lighter Side of Business – A visit to Peru!   I mostly post articles about lighting related topics; Sylvania’s latest energy saving light bulbs, high effeciency electronic ballasts or helping companies reduce their energy bills, but I recently had the opportunity to visit the country of Peru on a family vacation and I felt it was interesting enough to add to our site.  Most of our vacations in the past several years have been the usual visits to the Florida attractions in Orlando, a week at Ft Myers Beach, or a few days visiting relatives in the northeast. About a year ago our neighbor Jorge, a native Peruvian, and his wife were considering taking a family trip to Peru to show their 2 teenage children some of the family heritage, the small beach town, Pisco, where Jorge grew up and the surrounding areas. Since our children are similar in ages to Jorge’s children, they spend a lot of time at each of the neighborhood houses and we started talking about the possibility of our family joining the neighbors on their trip to Peru. After some planning and coordinating, our trip plans started to take shape. Jorge contacted a childhood friend, Cesar, who still lives in Peru, and does planning for tour groups and vacationers visiting the sites in Peru. As time went on, two more neighborhood teen friends were added to our group in addition to 2 more relatives meeting up with us in Peru to bring our group total to 13 people (6 adults and 7 teenagers).        I pulled out a small sample of (more…)

Fluorescent Magnetic – T12 Ballasts – T8 Ballasts Bradenton Clearwater Sarasota Ft Myers Tampa

Why can’t I find standard Magnetic T12 Fluorescent Ballasts anymore? The standard magnetic T12 fluorescent ballasts that have been the workhorse of the commercial lighting market for the past 60 years were phased out on July 1, 2010 due to the EPACT legislation.      While remaining inventories of these magnetic ballasts that operate (2) 4 foot or 8 foot T12 fluorescent linear tubes can be installed and sold off until inventories are depleted,most distributors by now have sold most of their existing inventory.  End users that are still using the tradition size fluorescent lamps, are now faced with the reality of how to repair their light fixtures. End users now have three options for dealing with their fixture problem.     Frontier Lighting can help!         1)  If you are satisfied with the overall performance of the T12 fluorescent bulbs that you are currently using,  Frontier Lighting has an electronic ballast  in stock that will operate the older style T12 lamps in either 4 foot or 8 foot. The wiring for a two light fixtures would be the same as the magentic version, for a one light setup, two of the wire leads would need to be capped off.       2)  Convert the magnetic ballast to an electronic ballast that will operate up to ( 4)  T8 fluorescent lamps. This style  of fluorescent ballast would require changing your fluorescent lamps to a more energy efficient T8 fluorescent  lamp (light bulb), the fixture and the fixture sockets can be reused,  the wiring however, may need to be modified depending on the electronic ballast. Frontier Lighting has ballasts available that would wire the same as the magnetic ballasts using 2 blue (more…)

Save Energy with Sylvania Bulbs and Ballasts

Osram Sylvania Pentron High Output Supersaver T5HO Fluorescent Light Bulbs   Osram Sylvania’s PENTRON High Output SUPERSAVER T5 High Output fluorescent bulb offering has been expanded to include  4 foot 47 watt fluorescent light bulbs. These bulbs, available from Frontier Lighting, complement 50 watt PENTRON High Output SUPERSAVER fluorescent linear light bulbs, presenting an opportunity for increased energy savings. Both of these fluorescent lamp types operate on standard T5 HO programmed rapid start systems, requiring no ballast change to save energy over existing T5 High Output fluorescent lighting  systems. Save Energy with Sylvania Light Bulbs and Ballasts When compared with existing 54 watt  T5 High Output fluorescent bulbs, the 47 watt fluorescents offers energy savings of 13% while maintaining 92% light output and the 50 watt lamp offers 7% energy savings with no loss in lumen output. At $0.10/kWh and 4,000 hours of operation per year, the 7 to 13% savings translates to savings of $6.40 to $11.20 per light fixture per year (based on a 4-lamp light fixture). With lumen maintenance of 93% Sylvania’s PENTRON High Output SUPERSAVER fluorescent lamps assure that light levels are maintained while energy is saved over a very long life of 40,000 hours (12 hours/start). Maximum Performance when used with Sylvania Electronic Ballasts These lamps use lead-free glass, are RoHS compliant, pass the Federal TCLP test classifying them as non-hazardous waste in most states and are made in the USA. For maximum system efficacy and performance, consider pairing PENTRON HO SUPERSAVER lamps with QUICKTRONIC® QHE high efficiency electronic ballasts. Sylvania’s Largest Independent (more…)
