Abstract:

A tunable high intensity lighting system comprising at least a light enclosure box, an elongated shaped reflector, and a lens. The high intensity lighting system can be retrofitted to existing strip fluorescent light fixtures to adapt the existing fixture to obtain desired lighting characteristics for a specific application. By using different combinations of components, different light intensities, and tint and glare characteristics are obtained. A method for tuning existing strip fluorescent light fixtures also is disclosed, as is a kit for preselected applications, where the kit contains the components for the retrofitting to the existing fixture.
