LED Technology

LED Technology is designed to enjoy the high brightness of white or multicolor lighting.

Higher Efficiency: high lumens/watt provides substantial energy savings over traditional lighting sources.
Lower Maintenance: LEDs have a lifetime on the order of 50,000 hours, and therefore require less frequent replacement or maintenance.
Directional: Less light output is required to light an area when the light source can be directed. There is also less light run-off or light “pollution.”
Safer Technology: LEDs do not contain mercury and are environmentally safer than other lighting technologies.
Intelligent Control: LED light systems can support a wide range of advanced features to improve efficiency and provide more optimized lighting. Features range from automatic dimming to matching available ambient light and adaptive time-of-day operation to maximize energy cost savings.
Fast Operation: LEDs offer quick on-off switching and have a low startup time.

Residential: Applications include light bulb replacement, accent lighting and small outdoor lighting. In general, only a few LEDs need to be lit, in usually one or two strings. Given the low-cost pressures of this market, advanced controls are generally not common.
Commercial: Applications include fluorescent ballasts, light bulb replacement and accent lighting. Only a few LEDs need to be lit, usually one or two strings. While concerned about cost, this market is very energy conscious. Higher-end applications will require remote connectivity and some controller intelligence.
Entertainment: Applications include high-end display and mood lighting. Full intensity control and consistent color quality are essential, as is remote connectivity and support for industry-standard protocols.
