the LEDs are still operated at the same voltage and current as during full light output

Fluorescent lights do not dim and often contain a warning on the package to not use the products on a dimming system. Dimming a CFL can cause serious damage to a product that contains mercury. This presents a potential environmental hazard in your home or business. While LED lights are completely safe and have no harmful elements like mercury, most are not dimmable. Because LED lights are a significant investment, it is important to ensure the lights you buy will work on your dimming system. Some manufacturers claim to have dimmable LED lighting solutions. All too often, consumers spend hundreds of dollars on a LED lights only to find out later that the products do not work on US dimming systems.

Green Lighting LED dimmable solutions last for 50,000 hours, retrofit standard fixtures at a fraction of the energy usage, and utilize the most updated dimming technology in the industry. Dimming does not result in a loss of efficiency. During dimming, the LEDs are still operated at the same voltage and current as during full light output. In addition, lamp life is not affected by dimming, as is sometimes the case with frequently dimmed fluorescent lighting. Rather, dimming LEDs may lengthen the useful life of LEDs, because dimming can reduce operating temperatures inside the light source. Our products are the highest quality, do not flicker and do not produce harmonic distortion on most standard dimming systems.

So as a consumer, how do you know if an LED lighting products works on incandescent dimming systems? Green Lighting LED agrees with the saying – seeing is believing. Green Lighting LED has conducted a series of tests comparing our LED lighting solutions with standard dimming systems available commercially. A series of videos are now available online to view and compare multiple products on different dimmers. Green Lighting LED is lighting the way to green technology.

Despite Nichia planned to enter into LED markets in China

This emerging potential for green LED applications follows on the heels of an announcement of applications for blue LEDs on April 25, 2012. NGK is now poised to apply its technology to the inverters used in hybrid and electric vehicles, power amplifiers for base stations of wireless communication, and other power devices. To this end, NGK will take steps to further reduce defect density for its GaN wafers, and to produce larger wafers that are greater than 6 inches in diameter. Despite Nichia planned to enter into LED markets in China and enlarge its market share there, it has been foiled by simmering anti-Japan sentiment in China due mainly to the Diaoyutai island issue, so is considering to cooperate with Taiwanese enterprises for further development. And two Taiwanese companies, including Hon Hai Group and Epistar, will be part of the joint venture. According to senior Nichia executives and based on positive outlook towards widespread use of LED lighting, the firm focused on the amp...
