Innovative Solutions Using LED Lighting

In conventional incandescent and halogen light bulbs as much as 90% of the energy used gets wasted. For solid state LED lighting more brightness is delivered per watt and pure colours can be generated that use far less energy than in traditional bulbs. LED fixtures can also last for as long as 11 years, virtually eliminating the need for replacement.

Luxeon Power Light Sources from Lumileds Lighting are the first to combine the brightness of conventional lighting with the small footprint, long life and other advantages of LEDs. These advantages are presenting numerous opportunities for designers and architects to use innovative solid-state lighting for everyday purposes including general lighting, automotive lighting, traffic signaling, signage and LCD backlighting.

The technology shunning Amish religious sect has also taken to Luxeon LEDs to power headlights, taillights and marker lights for horse-drawn buggies. This move is largely due to the energy efficiency of LED lighting, which dramatically lengthens the life of carriage batteries.
