WARNING: It is safe to use EPCO Tube Guards preferably in conjunction with electronic high efficiency ballasts that are designed to prevent over-heating of the lamp during use and at the lamp's "end of life". EPCO does not recommend using its Tube Guards under any conditions where the surface temperature of the lamp can exceed 225°F (107°C) or in any enclosed light fixture where normal venting is prohibited. NOTE: EPCO Tube Guards should not be used with dimming systems, motion sensors, or any application where power surges or voltage spikes can cause arcing or over-burning the lamps.
