SERVING THE RV INDUSTRY SINCE 1939

United States Patent No. 5,568,018

Unequivocally, the best 12-volt fluorescent lighting package available for your RV!

When you purchase an RV, you want to know that the manufacturer used the highest quality and useful components available. Obviously, there are many varibles and components. But if you see Sunray TS (Tube Saver) fluorescent lights, you know that the RV maker used care in selecting the components for your RV.

Why?

  • Sunray TS's patented ballast lets your light tubes last four times longer.
  • Sunray TS's patented ballast reduces interference with radio, TV and VCR reception.
  • Sunray TS's patented ballast operates significantly cooler.
  • Sunray TS's patented ballast has these exclusive features:
    1. Tube Saver Electronic Starting Circuit
    2. High Voltage High Current Transistor
    3. Negative Voltage Spike Protection
    4. High Current 3 Amp Rectifier -- Low foward voltage drop
    5. Electrolytic Capacitor -- 470 Microfarads Filter Cap
    6. Two (2) Monolithic Ceramic Capacitor -- Reduces Radio & TV Interference
    7. Inductor -- Reduces line Feedback by 50%
    8. High Frequency Oscillation -- Reduces TV & VCR Remote Control Interference
  • Sunray TS is unsurpassed in brightness and light output (fluorescent lighting).
  • In a nutshell what you get from Sunray TS is Reliability!

Sunray TS is Reliable

If RELIABILITY is what you are looking for then Sunray TS is the answer. Our Sunray TSdesign will make your tubes last four times longer and the ballast is designed to work on all types of RV power sources. The ballast is voltage and temperature compensating. Our light output is of the highest level and the operating temperature never exceeds the maximum capacitor rating. In fact, our ballast operates in some cases 50 degrees cooler than the competitor's light. Excessive temperature is one of the most common causes of ballast failure. If their light is connected to a standard type linear power converter or is turned on when the motor home is being driven down the highway, the capacitor in the ballast will over heat and in time will fail. When the capacitor fails it causes the refrigerator and air conditioning systems to malfunction. To make matters worse, the light fixture will still light up the tubes, so you think your refrigerator has gone bad and after a great deal of expense and aggravation you discover that the source of the problem was a defective light fixture.

Our Sunray TS ballast has four components to reduce line feedback, the other brand has only one. In fact our line feedback is only about 150 millivolts, while theirs is between 450 to 1000 millivolts. Line feedback can cause radio and TV interference. To further reduce radio noise all Sunray TS fixtures are completely grounded. Grounding the ballast, reflector, and fixtures reduces radiated noise. Their fixtures do not employ any of these features.

The Sunray TS ballast was designed with the full time RVer in mind. With our ballast, tube replacement cost are reduced by 300% or more. Our ballast can withstand `out of adjustment` generators and is capable of running at 24 volts, (for about 15 minutes). This can happen when the battery bank is connected in series instead of parallel. Under such a condition all other 12 volt lighting will burn out. If you have Sunray TS fluorescent lighting you will have plenty of light to replace their burned out fixtures.

Our operating frequency is nearly twice that of the other light, so the potential to interfere with TV & VCR remote controls is greatly reduced.

And when you need a replacement fluorescent light fixture, you can replace it with Sunray TS no matter what brand was originally installed. Call or e-mail us for your nearest dealer.
