Technical Data Sheet
Tetra® PowerStrip
Energy efficient solutions for cabinet signs
Tetra PowerStrip and Tetra PowerStrip DS from
GE Lighting Solutions are the innovative
that replace fluorescent tubes in cabinet signs resulting
in reduced energy costs, improved uniformity and
lower maintenance expenses.
Tetra PowerStrip is our 12 Volt LED system for
single-sided cabinet signs, and Tetra PowerStrip
High Output and Tetra PowerStrip DS
LED system for double-sided cabinet signs.

LED Benefits Drive Sales
Tetra PowerStrip has the potential to increase
sales by offering valued benefits for end-user
driven projects. This LED system is a cost effective
investment for sign owners who are conscious
about their energy and maintenance costs, brand
image and environmental impact.
Tetra PowerStrip drastically slashes energy costs
by offering up to 79% energy savings over T12HO
fluorescent while providing better light consistency
across the sign face. This lighting system delivers
uniform light up to 4 times longer than fluorescent.
This long life drastically reduces maintenance costs
while protecting brand image, and it’s all backed
up with a 5 year limited warranty. The LED system
contains no lead, mercury or glass making handling
and disposal less of a concern.
Cabinets have never been
easier to install
Tetra PowerStrip is a low-voltage lighting system
that does not require the construction of sockets
for mounting. The easy-to-handle system eliminates
the handling of fragile glass tubes and can be cut
between modules for easy installation in new or
retrofit signs of any size.
Easy clip-on installation of mounting brackets is a snap.

When brightness matters most, Tetra PowerStrip
High Output and Tetra PowerStrip DS High Output
deliver up to 35% more light than standard Tetra,
commanding attention to your customer's brand image.
GE Reliability
Only GE Lighting Solutions has the depth of
experience that comes from supplying over 20
million feet of Tetra LED lighting systems across
the globe. Every Tetra product is backed with a
reputation for reliability that is unsurpassed in the
industry. We perform stringent testing of the entire
system-utilizing GE Six Sigma standards-rather than
just pass on supplier reported performance claims.
Tetra PowerStrip features OptiLens™, an innovative
technology that maximizes LED performance. This
patent-pending optical lens helps spread light exactly
where it’s needed most, resulting in bright, uniform
light distribution across the entire sign face.
Tetra PowerStrip with OptiLens provides over 20%
greater surface area coverage than just LEDs alone.
We have added more LED's to improve uniformity.
