In a world where lighting innovation focus is on LED’s, Venture Lighting International has developed
a revolutionary solution for efficient street and area lighting that offers significant energy savings at a highly
competitive price. Venture’s RIO, which stands for Retrofit Integrated Optics, boasts patent-pending technology
that delivers up to 120 LPW (lumens per watt) and a rated lamp life of up to 30,000 hours.
The unprecedented 95% optical efficiency combined with the proven track record of ceramic metal halide technology for a wide range of outdoor applications make the RIO system an ideal choice for street and area lighting retrofits. Along with the vast energy savings, a truly dazzling glass reflective optic and better color rendering index (CRI) add to the long list of benefits the RIO end user will enjoy.
The RIO system is the ultimate green choice for updating street and area lighting. The superior light quality and longer rated life are added bonuses to a total energy savings of almost 50%. By repurposing existing fixtures, the waste, time and labor at each job are all greatly reduced. The immense energy savings also translate to substantial cost savings. For example, switching from a 250 watt HPS system to a RIO 140 watt system will save 141 system watts. This equates to a savings of $62 per fixture, based on usage of 12 hours/day @ $0.10/kWh.
