Lighting Science Group worked with Unique Lighting

On November 30th, 2011, Carmanah launched the anticipated EG40 and EG80 solar outdoor lighting systems. Offering a top-of-pole integrated design that eases installation and protects against vandalism, the led high bay light is designed to be the most robust and reliable solar powered lighting system on the market.

Lighting Science Group announced today that the company's LED bulbs have been used to light the Dallas Arboretum's newly christened Nancy Rutchik Red Maple Rill. The 2 acre rill features a collection of over 80 varieties of 200 signature Japanese Maples along the periphery of a circulating brook and winding pedestrian pathway. As opposed to R40 175W mercury vapor lamps that would have required ballast boxes to be mounted to trees, Lighting Science Group worked with Unique Lighting of Texas to illuminate the area with its ultra-efficient PAR30 LED bulbs.

"While the gardens are beautiful during the day, at night the lighting is so wonderful it makes you feel as though you are in a magical land," said Nancy Rutchik, commissioner and funder of the maple grounds.  "Visitors who came out for the opening keep coming back to see the Red Maple Rill lit during the evening." The Red Maple Rill is lit up at night during the Arboretum's Concert in the Garden series as it is the main path to the Martin Rutchik Concert Stage & Lawn and for various after hour's events and wedding receptions.

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...
