Mastering anything can be a challenge. Mastering the “Energy Crisis” is an enormous challenge and it will take a concentrated effort by the entire world population to overcome. The status quo is just not sustainable and we all need to work together to make a change. It will take a concerted effort by all to educate every world government and their populations to help them understand this.
Superior Lamp has created a Blog to engage not only those who are already interested in improving our planet, but the indifferent as well. It is Superior’s belief that unless we reach out to the whole population and do our best to explain all the benefits of moving forward, the effort will go unheeded.

Superior Lamp Inc. Sales Motivation #1
FAILURE IS A REQUIRMENT FOR SUCCESS
What do Albert Pujols, Mike Schmidt, Donald Trump and Warren Buffett all have in common? They all fail much more than they succeed. Albert and Mike fail two out of three times they have gone to the plate and one of them is already in the hall of fame as one of the greatest in his profession. The other one will be there. Mr. Trump and Mr. Buffett have made millions and maybe billions but have lost a whole lot of times. This group may be some of the biggest losers of all time.
Another thing that these “successful failures” have in common is the life learned ability to learn from their unsuccessful efforts and make adjustments so they don’t make the same mistake twice. I guarantee you that after an unsuccessful effort on their part they are better prepared next time to charge ahead with every intention of succeeding. They accomplish this with a plan that includes back to basics and preparing by studying the positive material that allowed them to succeed before.
These people will fail again and they are aware of that each and every day. But they also will succeed again because they know that failure is a big part of success. They all go to bat the next time up with the intention of getting on base and then scoring.
Do you fear failure? Or do you know it is required for success? When you don‘t succeed do you look inside and see what you could have done better? Do you go back to basics and adjust? Do you call your in–house manager, your coach to seek advice and direction? Failure is no more than a sign post telling you to adjust your direction and improve your course. Heed the sign, make the corrections and you will get right back in the game. Remember, if your last at bat or “door” was a “no”, go through the next door swinging, you are due for a “yes”.

Superior Lamp Product Tips-Metal Halides
INITIAL COLOR OF METAL HALIDE LAMPS
Metal Halide lamps go through an initial color stabilization period—how long it takes after installing the lamp for the color to “settle in”. This is a property of all metal halide lamps, including Superior Lamps.
Metal Halide lamps are filled with different halide salts. These salts vaporize in the arc tube, and it is the final combination of the different salts that produces the characteristic white light.
When a new Superior Lamp metal halide is first operated, it can sometimes appear “off-color,” yellow or green. It can also sometimes appear to change color for a moment, and then change back. The reasons these events happen is because the different halide salts in the arc tube are not yet evenly distributed or fully vaporized, and are thus unable to create the bright white color that the metal halide is known for. Hence a “burn-in time” is necessary. Once a Superior Lamp metal halide has been operated for about one hundred hours, provided it is on a good ballast, it should stabilize and reach its desired color, the familiar brilliant white.

Superior Lamp Praises the Global "Green" Awareness of the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver
January 20, 2010 - With the 2010 Winter Olympics imminent, Vancouver is making the Winter Games green. Superior Lamp is ecstatic to learn of the green initiatives taking place for the games because it will further expand global awareness of an issue they've been working to support since their inception in 1977. "We are doing what we can to be green and we're working to do what's best for the environment here in the U.S. by making sure that the products we market nationally are environmentally friendly and energy saving. But what we're doing is only one piece of the much larger global puzzle." says a spokesperson for Superior Lamp. With all of the environmental issues at hand, it is imperative that we all recognize the importance of going green.
Superior Lamp is the leading distributor of heavy duty, industrial, environmentally friendly and energy saving lighting products in the U.S. Superior carries a full line of fluorescents, incandescents, metal halides, spiral lamps, L.E.D.s and ballasts. They can solve any lighting problem that a business may have. Superior distributes lamps that can save up to 83% in energy, lamps that replicate natural sunlight and are 69% brighter than average, lamps that last 24 times life, lamps that are green on disposal, and that come with the best guarantees. Superior Lamp's customers are not the only ones that benefit from the green products, their sales people are also highly satisfied because they are selling green products.
Many businesses in the U.S. today are trying to go green, and if they haven't already they eventually will. It is only a matter of time before going green is not only something that we want to do because we should do it, but it is something that we have to do. Superior Lamp is ready to assist these businesses in making the transition and help them to do their part. Superior Lamp is hoping that with the 2010 Winter Olympics going green, the 'greened' games will inspire not only U.S. businesses to do their part for the environment, but also businesses around the world.

Superior Lamp Product Tip: Beware Residential Or Shoplight Grade Ballasts
SUPERIOR LAMP INC. PRODUCT TIP
BEWARE RESIDENTIAL OR SHOPLIGHT GRADE BALLASTS
When you are selling your customer your Superor Lamp fluorescent tubes, keep in mind that there are different quality ballasts out there for operating fluorescents. Grades of ballasts range from: our HEAVY DUTY™ 50-year ballasts (BEST), to standard short-life industrial/commercial-grade ballasts (OK), and residential- and shoplight-grade (POOR).
Shoplight and residential ballasts are really only designed to be operated for short periods of time, and inherently have a short life. While our fluorescent tubes will probably light on the shoplight or residential ballasts, these ballasts are severely underpowered and will operate at higher temperatures to drive a full-wattage, commercial-grade tube (40W or 34W). Operating full-wattage lamps off these poor ballasts will also result in reduced light output when compared to the same lamps driven off of industrial-grade ballasts. These days you will see these poor quality fixtures equipped with “shop-grade” or “utility” 4’ T12 lamps, which actually only draw 25 watts on these ballasts.
When you equip these cheap fixtures with 34W or 40W tubes, the ballast has to overwork to drive the lamps, resulting in much higher ballast temperatures. These higher temperatures break down the ballast windings and cause voltage and current supply problems to the lamps. The build-up of heat is also potentially dangerous and could possibly start a fire. Continuous operation of these fixtures (like in an office setting where the fixtures are left on all day) will prematurely burn out full wattage lamps.
Good indicators of failing or poor quality ballasts are if commercial-grade lamps are spiraling, flickering, starting poorly, low light output, end-darkening on one end, or burning out prematurely. Other indicators are if the ballast/fixture is making an excessive hum or vibration, or if it is unbearably hot to the touch. In any of these cases, the ballast is suspect and should probably be replaced.
When you run into these situations, explain to your customer what is happening. Emphasize with them that this is why you only sell Superior Lamp Premium Products like our HEAVY DUTY™ fluorescents and HEAVY DUTY™ electronic ballasts!
