Solar and wind energy utilisation
DC fluorescent ballasts, operating from batteries, 12VDC, enable compact fluorescent lamps to provide light very efficiently. Unique and innovative design operate at nearly Constant Power, see data sheet and high efficiency giving you longer battery life. Constant Power is ideal for fluorescent lamps, under running a lamp will shorten its life. Constant Power is available from, a nearly flat battery at 10.5V to a fully charged battery at 14.7V . Each lamp provides *6x the light compared to an ordinary incandescent lamp. This means that an 11w lamp is equivalent to an ordinary 75W* incandescent lamp bulb. All provide nearly Constant Power to the lamp to ensure maximum life. *Osram data claims 11W is equivalent to 75W incandescent, for S/E series of lamps. All power measurements on LVF ballasts are made with the aid of a 13G0100 Lilco Wideband Current Transformer, see next panel.
No need to charge the battery so often. For off-grid remote locations, portable lighting, vehicle lighting, emergency lighting and Safety Extra Low Voltage (SELV) applications.
Many cheap DC fluorescent ballasts do cause rapid failure of the fluorescent lamp due to under running and thus extra cost with lamp replacement. LVF DC Fluorescent ballasts enable long lamp life and save you money at the same time. Use
High Efficiency, Low Loss 12V DC Fluorescent Lamp Ballasts. World leaders in this field. Nothing can match our quality or performance. Our ballasts achieve about 85% efficiency measured using a calibrated calorimeter. 85% means more lumens per watt.

A precision lab quality current transformer from Lilco will enable simultaneous measurement of Current and Voltage (with suitable voltage probe, which must be carefully calibrated) without a common earth point, which would distort measurement accuracy. With a modern digitizing oscilloscope, using the multiplier function, you can display instantaneous power waveforms and show mean value of power waveform, with all phase differences taken into account by the digitizing multiplier. An invaluable measurement tool
