	<FONT FACE="Arial,Helvetica">This shows how a Gecko ProPack is connected in the 115V, Low Current

	Operation Mode.&nbsp; This mode of operation allows the spa control to operated on a lower voltage

	range.&nbsp;&nbsp; The only difference between the high current and low current mode, is that the

	heater is deactivated when the pump or blower is switched on by the operator.&nbsp; Additionally,

	the heater power is reduced to approximately 1200 watts, due to the fact that it is only being

	powered by half the rated voltage.</FONT> <BR>&nbsp;
