            Energy savings
            Infrared active pulse technology used on electronic
            controls is a low-power consumption solution.
            The battery-operated electronic models have
            an average lifespan of 350,000 cycles (i.e. 3 to 6 years)
            depending on the frequency of use. The Lithium
            batteries are widely available, affordable and recyclable.
