LEDtronics MR16 Bulbs Consume 3 Watts for 12VAC/DC & 24VDC
Systems
TORRANCE,
CA —— LEDtronics introduces an addition to its line of drop-in
replacement MR16-styled LED bulbs: High-powered 3Watt LED MR16 bulbs.
These new 3Watt MR16 LED bulbs have two big advantages
over other MR16 LED bulbs. First, they are engineered to handle the
variations in voltages
that may accompany “noisy” or “dirty” AC or DC
power supplies, eliminating potential burnout from incoming voltage that
is higher than the lamp’s capacity.
Second, the new 3Watt MR16 bulbs eliminate the
need to stock a variety of LED MR16 bulbs to coordinate with different
voltages that power supplies
of 12Volt AC/DC – 24Volt DC may present, simplifying procurement
and inventory procedures.
High-powered 3Watt LED MR16 bulbs (Series Number MR16-3W) have the following
characteristics; bi-pin bases just like standard incandescent MR16 bulbs,
and light outputs of 102.9 lumens using only 2.6Watts with 12Volts DC,
120.6lumens using only 3.7Watts with 12Volts AC, and 140.7 lumens using
only 3.8Watts with 24Volts DC.
The bulb features three High-Power LEDs and is
offered in Cool White (6500 Kelvin) and Warm White (3000 Kelvin) color
temperatures. Both Warm
and Cool Whites are offered in 61° beam angles (2?½). With
factory approval, MR16-3W bulbs may be ordered in other LED colors, voltages
and beam angles. MR16-3W bulbs carry a three-year limited warranty.
Unlike halogen MR16 lamps that create potentially damaging heat and
have caused fires when accidentally in contact with other objects, LED-sourced
MR16-3W bulbs generate less heat while operating and pose no threat to
the objects they are illuminating or their surroundings.
Lighting professionals, architects, industrial designers and maintenance
departments will find these MR16-3W lamps to be excellent solutions for
their maintenance-free and low-voltage applications. MR16-3W lamps are
commonly used for accent, task, and display lighting, track lighting
in museums, jewelry stores, and hotels. They are excellent for both residential
lighting situations and entertainment venues like theaters, restaurants,
and theme parks.
With an average White LED lifespan of up to 50,000-hours (five years),
LEDs operate reliably year after year. Solid-state design renders LEDs
impervious to electrical and mechanical shock, vibration, frequent switching
and environmental fluctuation. Integrated current-limited resistors prevent
short-circuiting. LED lamps use only 10%-20% of the energy consumed by
equivalent incandescent lamps. When combined with their maintenance-free
operation this results in substantial cost savings.
The price of an MR16-3W LED bulb is $47.04 each. Discounts are available
for large quantity orders. Availability is stock to 4-6 weeks for special
requirements.
