which is a welcome safety improvement for exterior lights on board

Finally, the global economic downturn has forced property owners and managers to look harder at their operating costs, creating opportunities for LED Tubes to provide welcomed savings of 50% over fluorescent equivalents.

According to Brian Sartain, vice president of Goodrich's Interiors Cabin and Lighting Systems business, "Goodrich has worked closely with the Lufthansa Technik team to create a superb technology LED solution which extends light service life and offers a 'no touch–maintenance free' product. Our LED runway turnoff lights are reliable and are fully interchangeable (mechanically and electronically) with the existing lights. Moreover, during the extensive field trials, pilots reported that they can see better with these new lights which is a welcome safety improvement for exterior lights on board the Airbus A320 Family aircraft."

The price range represents a huge markdown from NT$500 (US$16) for 7W bulbs it launched in 2011, as well as a 25% cut from the price of the first batch of 7.5W bulbs it introduced previously. At the heart of the company’s cut-price plan is LED chips sourced from Lextar Electronics.

With the cut-rate strategy, the company estimated it would help to achieve the goal of selling 500,000-600,000 LED light bulbs for around NT$200 million (US$6.6 million) in revenue by the end of 2012, quadrupling from last year’s volume.

Entertainment applications will adopt the new LEDs

The number and breadth of applications that require amber LEDs is tremendous,” said Frank Harder, VP of Product Marketing at Philips Lumileds. “Markets including automotive, entertainment, roadway, signaling, and many others use amber LEDs. With better efficiency and more light output, LUXEON Rebel PC amber makes it that much easier to reduce energy consumption with an environmentally friendly product.lamps to LEDs because they didn’t produce enough light and couldn’t operate effectively at higher temperatures. With the advances provided by LUXEON Rebel PC Amber, yellow traffic signals will be converted, warning lights and beacons on vehicles and obstructions will switch and entertainment applications will adopt the new LEDs. numbers of amber LEDs. With LUXEON Rebel PC Amber, manufacturers will be able to use fewer LEDs and lower other component costs because of the improved light output and particularly the stable color over temperature, something that has been problematic for many ...
