WHAT ARE LEDs AND WHAT ARE THE ADVANTAGES?
 

LED's (Light Emitting Diodes) are small, solid light bulbs, which are extremely energy efficient. Until recently, LEDs were limited to single-bulb use in applications such as instrument panels, electronics, pen-lights and strings of Christmas lights. Now LEDs can be found in other light sources that weren't applicable until only a year ago. Now the evolution of the LED takes another giant leap--SMD or Surface Mount Diode. This is new technology and the difference from the old is significant.

 

                            

For example: the old regular 4ft Fluorescent T8 lights use 32 watts of power. The new 4-ft. LED SMD T8 uses only 15 watts per light, with nearly twice the brightness!

Since the new LED SMD T8's are cooler and no light is wasted on the reflector, the new LED SMD T8's do not cause heat buildup. This fact alone demonstrates the dramatic energy savings potential of LED lighting.

 

  • Less Heat
  • No Ballast
  • No Starter
  • No Noise

 

 

ENVIRONMENTALLY SAFE

 

  • No toxic mercury (Hg)
  • No toxic lead (Pb)
  • No toxic phosphor powders
  • No glass tube to shatter
  • Recyclable

 


LONG LASTING & DURABLE

The LED SMD T8  lights are rated to over 40,000 hours with no "burn out failure". Our lights have the best warranty in the industry, with a 3 year manufacturer's replacement guarantee. 

Because the new LED SMD T8's outer tubes are made of a non-yellowing, non-disintegrating, impact resistant plastic, the tubes hold up to jarring and bumping that would shatter a regular fluorescent.


COLOR TONES

The New LED SMD T8's are available in a range of color tones:

 

6500k to 7000k - Cool: for Hospitals, etc.

6000k to 6500k - Cool / White for Supermarkets, shopping centers, stores, etc.

5000k to 5500k - White

4000k to 4500k - Warm / White

 





THE LED ADVANTAGES:

• Less Heat

• No Ballast

• Instant Startup

• No Noise

• Compatible with existing fluorescent fixtures'

• An environmentally green product

• Long Lasting and Durable

• Warm and Cool color tones available

• ROHS Compliant

• CE Certified
