It's universal voltage electronic ballast adapts automatically to your country's voltage (from 100 volts to 240 volts 50/60 hz) and has an output driving frequency of 40khz to guarantee flicker-free performance (yes--worth saying twice and did we mention quiet?), power plug adaptable through IEC adapter, 2 power switches (1 per 2 bulbs), mounting yoke and mirrored removable barn doors.
