Led Light Bulbs Save Energy

LED lighting systems are the most energy efficient form of lighting today and the savings in cost and energy over the life of a bulb is quite significant. When we search for alternative energy solutions for environmental sustainability and economic advantages, it's natural to look at LED light bulbs for conserving electricity and saving money in our wallets. LED's use over 80% less energy than traditional incandescent light bulbs and between 70-80% less energy than Halogen bulbs and in comparing LED light bulbs with the Compact Florescent lights (CFL light bulbs), that for the past decade have been advertised as "energy saving," we find the newer LED's do, in fact, use 20-30% less energy! An additional significant benefit of LED's is their long life. Some manufacturers guarantee 30,000 hours of lighting compared to the 1,000 hours of incandescent bulbs.

Specialized Lighting concepts can attest to the fact that home LED lightbulbs, commercial LED lighting and outdoor LED's have become more and more popular, emitting very bright and true-to-natural-colouring light. They also fall into the group of the newer renewable energy technology of impressive safe, clean, green products. LED lights are outstanding green energy efficient sources with an energy reduction and savings of up to 80 - 90% over conventional incandescent lighting.

LED's offer the perfect replacement for traditional halogen and incandescent light bulbs. Specialized Lighting Concepts’ Array line of replacement lamps offers energy savings of up to 80% and a life expectancy up to 20 times longer than traditional style bulbs. Array’s range of replacement LED light bulbs is one of the most comprehensive available today, offering reliable, colour consistent, energy efficient alternatives to traditional bulbs.

The Specialized Lighting Concepts’ range of LED replacement light bulbs are designed and selected for simple installation and direct replacement into your existing light fixtures and are suitable for use in a wide range of applications including domestic and commercial, marine, RV and motor homes and all lighting applications requiring low energy, long life alternatives to traditional light bulbs.

Specialized Lighting Concepts are the leading wholesale and retail suppliers of innovative LED lighting systems, LED lights, LED light bulbs, down lights and LED lighting design - allowing both professionals and DIY to create unique visual experiences for indoor and outdoor, commercial and residential spaces, with minimal environmental impact and they believe virtually anything is possible when it comes to lighting design.

ThinkLite LED Tubes Breaks the Light Level Barrier

"Green" businesses have traditionally had to compromise when it comes to lighting their facilities.

Now, compromise becomes a thing of the past as ThinkLite responds to the needs of businesses by announcing its latest breakthrough lighting product, the revolutionary high output T8 & T5 LED Tube lights, providing sufficient light for one-to-one replacements of fluorescent tubes in existing fixtures.

The enhanced performance is the result of ThinkLite’s proprietary driverless design. Until now, all LED tubes required an internal or external driver, which consisted of an array of over 150 electronic components. Generating significant heat, they limit the actual light output that could be achieved. ThinkLite engineers were able to replace the traditional LED driver with a single microchip to power the LEDs, thereby, performing the same functions with virtually no heat and much higher efficiency. ThinkLite has also enhanced the surface area of the heat sink enabling the chips to be driven at unprecedented levels. “ThinkLite’s driverless technology redefines the effectiveness of the LED tube. T8 and T5 tubes can now provide equivalent light levels of a fluorescent lamp, while reducing energy consumption by 60% and increasing the lifespan by over 3 times, all at an affordable price!” said Dinesh Wadhwani, ThinkLite CEO.

While there are many choices in the linear led tube market these days, ThinkLite LED tubes are the first to actually replicate the light levels of even new fluorescent tubes while reducing energy consumption by 60%. ThinkLite’s LED tubes are also available in lengths from 2 foot to 8 foot, thereby ensuring that any existing fixture can be retrofitted. The Company has also introduced a 2 foot LED U-shaped tube which can be used in many common office building fixtures, as well as a first of its kind Dual Shine T8 tube that generates both direct and indirect light, an ideal retrofit for fixtures that provide light in both directions.

Additional benefits include, a 65,000-hour lifespan, instant on/off, 5 year warranty and the highest efficacy of any tube on the market. And, with both UL and DLC approvals, ThinkLite’s LED tubes qualify for many utility rebate programs thus assuring a quick return on investment.

“In the same way that Tesla has re-invented the electric car, ThinkLite challenges traditional thinking and has re-invented the LED tube light,” added Danny Wadhwani, ThinkLite COO/CFO. “ThinkLite tubes are superior to any LED tube currently commercially available. Why change the fixtures when you can simply change the lamps?” adds Wadhwani.
