Staying safe when using or working next to our Greyparrot Unit is of most importance to us. This is what you need to know when using our unit on a daily basis.
Photosensitivity / epileptic seizures:
A very small percentage of individuals may experience epileptic seizures when exposed to flashing lights. Our illumination strobes with frequencies above 100Hz which should not be visible for the human eye. Exposure to strobing lights may induce an epileptic seizure in these individuals. Certain conditions may induce previously undetected epileptic symptoms even in persons who have no history of prior seizures or epilepsy. Individuals who have an epileptic condition must consult their physician prior working close to our illumination. If these individuals experience any of the following symptoms being close to our illumination -- dizziness, altered vision, eye or muscle twitches, loss of awareness, disorientation, any involuntary movement, or convulsions – they must IMMEDIATELY discontinue use and consult their physician. Greyparrot will be happy to assist you in finding the best solution to limit exposure to the illumination if needed.
