It is available in warm white or cool white light

Tier-one suppliers and LED makers alike say that LED adoption in automotive interiors is growing the fastest of all. "Every interior request for a quote we've received from every manufacturer around the world the last two years has had some aspect of LED ambient lighting to it," Vaughan says.With the expected proliferation of hybrids and electric vehicles, LED use is expected to grow faster still over the next decade. On those vehicles, where power is at a premium, engineers are more likely to disregard cost differences and reach for LED technology. "It saves about 400-430 Watts of power across the interior of the vehicle, and about 20 Watts on the interior," Godwin says.

Meanwhile, engineers wanting more brightness per W are getting that, too. In April, Philips Lumileds rolled out the Luxeon Rebel ES, claimed to be the world's first high-efficacy power LED specified to deliver a minimum of 100 Lumens per W. The new breed of brighter products is expected to take LEDs into exterior applications, such as red stop lamps, where they've been used sparingly before.Engineers say that most of the success of LEDs is being realized in luxury- and mid-level vehicles for now. Cadillac's Escalade, as well as selected Lexus and Audi vehicles, are employing LEDs across the board in high-beam, low-beam, daytime running lamps and parking lights. But as prices continue to drop and automakers move to more energy-efficient vehicles, LEDs are expected to migrate toward entry-level cars.

The ULE4000 LightBlox(TM) module is a self-contained, plug-and-play LED light engine that includes the LED, integrated power supply, thermal management, proprietary control circuitry, and optics. It is available in warm white or cool white light. Its fully integrated 120-volt power supply means installing a ULE4000 light fixture is as simple as connecting two leads and the ground wire to an electrical junction box. Light fixture manufacturers can replace traditional ballast, sockets and bulbs with just one part.

while all of hit new record quarterly highs

As a result, to increase greenhouse yields and decrease producers' energy costs, they will team up with Rutgers University, the University of Arizona, Michigan State University, and Orbital Technologies Corp. on the four-year project to improve and evaluate LED lighting for greenhouse use, according to Cary Mitchell, a professor of horticulture and project director for the grant. Total sales from January through September of 2010 hit NT$92.88 billion, up 35% YoY. Meanwhile, operating profit and net profit reached NT$5.67 billion and NT$6.8 billion respectively, with accumulated EPS of NT$3.05 increasing a remarkable 50% YoY. In 3Q10, The Company’s gross margin and operating margin reached 13.9% and 6.7%, up 0.9% and 0.4% QoQ, respectively. Lite-On’s net cash position held steady at NT$11.9 billion, after its recent cash dividend distribution of NT$5 billion. Non-operating items posted a net income of NT$508 million in3Q, with Perlos’ Q3 sales reaching €138 million, up 12% YoY. Perl...

LED lighting to reduce both power consumption

The new product is designed for use in bus & taxi stops, benches and walkway coverings and other public spaces. It is set to sell from July 20, exclusive to the Japanese market, targeting municipalities and led linear high bay light private companies. And the two manufacturers also propose its use for a wide range of applications across Japan. Its key features including:Firstly the shelter's solar power generating system can supply electricity for surrounding electrical needs, such as lighting for advertising displays, with excess power being sold to the power utility companies, thus helping to meet expected power shortages in Japan during the summer. Secondly, LED lighting to reduce both power consumption and CO2 emissions at night. Moreover, the shelter can play as emergency power supplier in the event of a disaster, as it has an independent power outlet that could be used to charge mobile phones or other vital electronics. During the several years, LED lights have gradua...

although some of the monster screens had relatively narrow viewing angles

Spark new tunnel light series includes 50w, 75w, 100w, 125w, 150w, 175w, 200w, which could meet different project requirements. From the exhibition we know Spark new LED tunnel light will be more and more popular, and illluminate more and more tunnels all around the world. Consumer Reports didn't render a verdict after just a quick look, but noted that Sharp "has definitely taken the lead in larger TV screen sizes." It cited the 60-, 70- and 80-inch sets from the past, saying they had typically done well in TV ratings, although some of the monster screens had relatively narrow viewing angles. Consumer Reports pointed out a question that "not everyone has the room -- or room in the budget -- for a 90-inch set." So, when rolling out the world's biggest TV (in its class, anyway), why bother with subtlety and understatement, right?Sharp Electronics of America President John Herrington said it "offers size, picture quality and smart functionality unlike anyt...
