Benefits of Digital HID™ (DHID™) Lighting Retrofits
Retrofitting existing High Wattage HID lamp fixtures with more energy efficient and better performing DHIDTM ballasts benefits your project:
– DHIDTM Retrofit lighting solutions provide Industry the shortest Return On Investment
– Re-using, retrofitting existing magnetic ballast/lamp fixtures is environmentally responsible
– Instant 40-50% energy savings, beyond 60% energy savings with smart dimming
– DHIDTM ballast technology improves HID lamp lifetime by 50%
– 90-95% lumen maintenance, originally specified light levels always remain (no relamping)
– Eliminate the long term expenses and waste of lamp maintenance with Long Life Lamp solutions
– 10+ years, maintenance free solution, 40,000+ hours life MH, 70,000+ hours life HPS solutions
How does it work? Old magnetic ballast HID lamp systems lose their light output over time, eventually losing over half of their initial light output. Although light output has decreased, the magnetic ballast system continues to consume the same amount of energy.
Accendo recommends the replacement of higher Wattage magnetic ballasts with lower Wattage DHIDTM ballasts. Below is a typical Industrial high bay light fixture retrofit example. The traditional 400W magnetic HID lamp system is upgraded/retrofitted with a 250W DHIDTM ballast, re-using the same fixture, only a new DHIDTM ballast and new matching Wattage lamp is installed.
Replace high Wattage magnetic HID ballasts with lower Wattage DHIDTM ballasts for instant 40%+ energy savings. Application Examples; downloadable PDF Application Sheets (click):

DHID™ Lighting, The Common Sense Solution For Industry Lighting Today
High-Intensity Discharge (HID) Lighting remains the most cost-effective, most energy efficient, highest performing lighting source on the market today.
Digital HIDTM (DHIDTM) Lighting Retrofit Ballasts are the natural, common sense upgrade for any existing HID lamp systems; the DHIDTM ballast is retrofitted/installed into the existing HID lamp fixture and ‘instantly’ reduces energy consumption by 40%-50% (75%+ with lamp dimming).

Digital HID™ (DHID™), Industry’s Most Green Lighting Upgrade Solution
Digital High-Intensity Discharge (DHIDTM) lighting technology is leading Industry’s energy efficient lighting evolution with a solution to lighting upgrades which is cost-effective, high-performing and the most responsible for the environment. Accendo Electronics Limited, a Canada and United States based lighting manufacturer, is a champion for the economy and the environment and is innovating with the World’s most robust lighting solutions for Industry. Their new GloGreen Series DHIDTM retrofit ballasts and lighting fixtures offer many value added benefits on the upgrade of any outdoor or indoor lighting application. The retrofit upgrade is a simple solution which reduces lighting expenses by fifty to seventy five percent or more, and produces very little waste since existing lighting fixtures can be re-used.
It is a known fact that Industry can realize significant money savings by simply upgrading old lighting systems with new more energy efficient lighting; but of greater importance is the reduction in greenhouse gases emitted into the atmosphere as a result. By drastically reducing the electricity demanded from the power utilities by municipalities and industries, a substantial impact can be had on the reduction of CO2 emissions released, and on Industry’s carbon footprint as a whole. Add the option for the responsible reuse of the existing lighting system fixture, and project costs can be further reduced while putting even less of an effect on the environment. The environment wins and your project wins considering DHIDTM lighting offers the perfect balance of buying cost, performance and low operating/consumable costs over the long term for a favorably short return on investment time.
High-Intensity Discharge (HID) bulb lighting is a trusted technology; it has been in use around the world for decades and today remains the most widely used type of high-power lighting for outdoor and indoor purposes such as street lighting, factory or retail/warehouse lighting, greenhouse/hydroponics and arena/stadium lighting for example. To power the HID bulb, traditionally a core and coil (magnetic) ballast is used. By simply retrofitting a DHIDTM ballast in place of the less efficient magnetic ballast, an instant fifty percent plus energy savings is possible; e.g. if the existing magnetic ballast light fixture uses a four hundred Watt power ballast/bulb and the new GloGreen ballast using two hundred Watts is installed in-place with a two-hundred Watt bulb, the customer can now expect longer lasting light quality with over fifty percent savings in electricity, and all for a fraction of the cost and waste of purchasing a new fixture.
The DHIDTM ballast brings new life to HID bulb systems including the benefits of extended lamp life, increased lumen output, instant-dimming, quick ignition/re-strike times and Automatic or pre-programmed schedule dimming capabilities for maximized energy savings and lamp life.
A breakthrough innovation is the guarantee that a HID bulb powered by a DHIDTM ballast will not visibly degrade over its entire lifetime. Magnetic ballast powered HID bulbs are known for their rapid degradation or premature dimming in as little as six months or five thousand hours; this is no longer the case with DHIDTM since the customer can expect thirty to forty thousand hours and beyond life from the same bulb while suffering no more than a five percent drop in light quality and output right up to the end of the bulb’s extended life.
Accendo GloGreen Series Digital HIDTM ballasts offer unparalleled electrical efficiency and performance compared to conventional core and coil (magnetic) ballasts. DHIDTM lighting offers the most cost-effective, value-added alternative to LED, fluorescent and induction based technologies for new and retrofit industrial and commercial Green lighting projects.
