LED Rope Lighting Fits Snugly Against Right Angle Surfaces
 Series
RPLD02 Rectangular RopeLED measures 0.4 x 0.7 in. and features 21 LEDs/ft
spaced 0.55 in. apart. Tubes are marked at intervals where they can be
cut, allowing user to customize length or splice together different colored
segments. Weather-resistant PVC makes RopeLED suited for outdoor and
indoor uses. Lighting comes standard in 120 V; 12 Vdc and 240 V are available
options. Average life span of LEDs is 100,000-plus hours.
Rectangular RopeLED Approaches Accent Lighting from a New Angle
TORRANCE, CA - July 22, 2003 - LEDtronics® announces Series RPLD02
Rectangular RopeLED, its newest offering in LED (Light Emitting Diode)
accent lighting. Measuring 0.4"H (10.5mm) by 0.7"W (18mm),
Series RPLD02 rectangular profile enables it to fit snugly against surfaces
that feature right angles. Rectangular
RopeLED features 21 LEDs per foot (72 per meter) that are spaced 0.55" (13.9mm)
apart. RopeLED tubes are marked at intervals where they can be cut, allowing
you to customize the length or to splice together different colored RopeLED
segments. Choose from red, blue, green, yellow and white LED colors.
RopeLED comes standard in 120V; 12V DC and 240V are available options.
RopeLED is easy to install. Simply connect the RopeLED to the appropriate
end of a power cord cable (purchased separately) then plug the power
cord into a standard electrical outlet. RopeLED can he held in place
with small plastic clips that snap onto the tube, and then nailed, screwed
or glue to an adjacent surface. RopeLED's weather-resistant PVC construction
makes it suitable for both outdoor and indoor uses. RopeLED can be employed
indoors for
emergency pathway lighting, to accent staircases, closets, cabinets,
ceilings, etc. Outdoors uses include, but are not limited to, lighting
decks, pathways, theme parks, trees, building edge decor lighting and
driveways.
Colored PVC tubes are not needed since LEDs emit colored light. The color
is determined by the composition of the semiconductor material comprising
the diode. Intensity and color remain stable over lamp's lifetime. LED
technology is an energy-efficient light source; saving 80% - 90% of energy
costs as compared with equivalent incandescent lighting. What's more,
RopeLED doesn't get hot so there is no risk of getting burned when you
touch it.
Solid-state design renders LEDs impervious to electrical and mechanical
shock, vibration, frequent switching and environmental extremes. With
an average life span of 100,000-plus hours (11 years) for LEDs, RopeLEDs
operate reliably year after year and provide architects, retail store
display creators, entertainment designers and other lighting professionals
with a practical way to integrate ornamental illumination into maintenance-intensive
applications
such as casinos, theme and amusement parks, stage lighting, carnivals,
and theaters.
Founded in 1983, LEDtronics® leads where others only follow when
it comes to designing, manufacturing and packaging state-of-the-art LEDs
to meet the world’s constantly changing lighting needs. Our inventive
product line encompasses an array of direct incandescent lamp replacement
Based LED Lamps, low-cost snap-in and relampable Panel Mount LED Lamps,
