The Wiko Exit Miser lamp saves you money. Not only does the lamp reduce the amount of energy used, it will also last for up to 15 years. There is no need for any adapters or special hook-ups, the Exit Miser screws or snaps into the existing socket. Installation takes only a few seconds. The lamp is cool burning and will not scorch the exit sign diffuser. It meets the national Fire Protection association (NFPA) and Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA) codes. The Exit Miser is made in the U.S.A. and has a 10 year replacement warranty.

Tremendous savings in energy consumption and labor costs can be achieved by replacing incandescent lamps with Exit Miser lamps.

First lets look at the energy savings. The Exit Miser burns at 5 Watts at 115 Volts. Most exit signs have incandescent lamps that burn between 15 to 25 watts. Figuring the cost per Kilowatt at .15 per hour, the savings could range from $26.00 to $52.00 per exit sign per year. The Exit Miser is also eligible for electric utility rebate programs.

The Exit Miser has a useful life of 150,000 hours! The savings in labor more than pay for the bulb. Incandescent bulbs on average last around 5,000 hours. You could save 30 trips up the ladder to change exit sign bulbs by replacing incandescent lamps with a set of Exit Misers on your next trip.

The Exit Misers cool burning feature makes it a safe product. The lamp fits into the existing socket so there is no obstruction of light to the exit sign or to the down light. The long life of the lamp makes it less likely to be burned out during an emergency. The lamp meets NFPA and OSHA codes.

There are some other energy efficient products for exit signs, but none of them offer the convenience, long-life and safety of the Exit Miser. For instance, fluorescent lamp adapters help reduce the energy consumption but they last only 10,000 hours, need a special adapter which can block down-light, and the lamp produces excessive heat which can scorch the diffuser. Some of the fluorescent adapters only have one lamp socket. This could be dangerous if the one lamp is out during an emergency. The Exit Miser is still more energy efficient. A fluorescent lamp is 9 to 13 watts compared to the 5 watt Exit Miser. Rope type lamps also help reduce energy consumption but need a special adapter and alter the characteristics of the exit sign. The rope tends to follow around the outside of the box causing uneven illumination. The plastic housing discolors over time further reducing the illumination. The rope is also just one unit, when it burns out there is no backup. Most rope lamps products carry a one year warranty. The Exit Miser is guaranteed for 10 years and is made from glass not plastic so it will not discolor.

The Exit Miser is truly a unique product with unlimited sales potential for offices, schools, stores, restaurants, industrial buildings, hotels and wherever exit signs are located.
