New G25 Direct Incandescent Replacement LED Lamps Shine
in Decorative and Architectural Lighting Applications
LED
Lamps serve as direct incandescent replacements.
With 25 mm Edison-screw bases and light maximizing designs,
G25-Style DécorLED products combine Indium Gallium Aluminum Phosphide
and Silicon Carbide/Gallium Nitride LED technologies. Offered with power
draws of 1.0–1.7 W and in 6 sunlight-visible colors, 18 solid-state
LEDs are configured to disperse light in 270° wide angle or 30° acute
angle. Individual LEDs incorporate optical-grade epoxy and molded polycarbonate
with UV- and shatter-resistant globes.
New G25 Direct Incandescent Replacement LED Lamps Shine in Decorative
and Architectural Lighting Applications
TORRANCE, CA — September 9, 2003 — LEDtronics® announces
G25-Style DécorLED direct incandescent replacement LED lamps. G25
DécorLEDs combine Indium Gallium Aluminum Phosphide (InGaAlP) and
Silicon Carbide/Gallium Nitride (SiC/GaN) Light Emitting Diode (LED) technologies,
standard 25mm Edison-screw bases and light maximizing designs. With power
draws of 1.0 Watts - 1.7 Watts, 11-year LED operating lives and six sunlight-visible
colors from which to select, solid-state G25 DécorLEDs provide architects,
entertainment designers and other lighting professionals with the means
to integrate ornamental illumination into maintenance-intensive applications.
Eighteen discrete LEDs are optimally configured to disperse light in
either a 270° wide angle or a 30° acute angle depending upon
the model. Individual high-intensity LEDs incorporate optical grade epoxy
to produce bright vivid illumination. Colors available are Green (570nm,
525nm), White (4500K, 8000K), Blue (470nm, 505nm), Yellow (595nm), Red
(660nm, 633nm), and Orange (612nm). Colored lenses or filters are not
needed since LEDs emit colored light. The color is determined by the
composition of the semiconductor material comprising the diode. A molded
polycarbonate, UV- and shatter-resistant globe protects the LED cluster
from environmental stresses. G25 DécorLED lamps are available
in all common voltages from 120VDC/AC to 12/14 volts DC. They perform
well in applications subjected to voltage dips or surges. Integrated
current-limited resistors and polarity-protection diodes assure that
no circuit modifications are required. Custom options are: Frosted/tinted
bulbs, multi-colored lamps and special voltages. A19, G40A, S11 and S14
size bulbs as well as E27 European screw bases are also available.
G25 DécorLEDs are energy-efficient light sources, saving 80%
- 90% of energy costs compared to a 15- or 20-Watt incandescent lamps.
Because G25 DécorLEDs use very little energy and are virtually
maintenance free the cost savings are substantial. Over the span of a
decade, the energy saved per 1,000 G25 DécorLED lamps (including
labor) equates to $140,000 (15W) and $184,000 (20W) when compared to
equivalent incandescent lamps. These are conservative figures without
adjustments for inflation.
Solid-state design renders LEDs impervious to electrical and mechanical
shock, vibration, frequent switching and environmental extremes. Additionally,
with the use of multiple LEDs, an LED cluster lamp continues to provide
light even if one or more emitters fail unlike when the filament breaks
in an incandescent bulb. With an average life span of 100,000-plus hours
(11 years), LEDs operate reliably year after year and are appropriate
for many applications. DécorLED is an ideal solution for decorative
and night task lighting applications including large message panels,
billboards, scoreboards, time and temperature signs, arcade machines,
casino accent light, theme and amusement parks, stage lighting, carnivals,
theaters and ornamental lighting. DécorLEDs can be used as individual
pixels in a large dot matrix screen, full color screens, moving signs
and displays.
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,
high intensity sunlight-visible Discrete LEDs, PCB LEDs circuit board
status indicators, surface mount diodes SMT LEDs, full-spectrum rainbow
RGB LEDs and Infra-Red (IR) LEDs.
Prices for G25 DécorLEDs range from $31.50 - $49.50 each in quantities
of 1,000 depending on LED technology and color. Availability is stock
to 4 – 6 weeks for special requirements. G25 DécorLEDs carry
a 3-year limited warranty.
