CMR Illumra

Illumra has introduced CMR, a lighting-control system designed to work with dawn-and-dusk sensors to measure the length of the night cycle; internal timers turn the lights off during the second half of the night, cutting energy consumption by 50%. Suitable for parking lots, garages, landscape lighting, and streetlights, it synchronizes to existing sensors and adapts to changing seasons. One device is needed per pole or fixture.• illumra.com
