LED Tubing Has Life Span Of 100,000-Plus Hours
 Round
RopeLED, housed within 0.5 in. dia, flexible PVC tube, measures 6.5 ft
long (min) and employs 10 LEDs per foot spaced 1.10 in. apart. Product
has weather-resistant construction suited for both outdoor and indoor
use, and comes in red, blue, green, yellow, and white LED colors. Solid-state
design is impervious to electrical and mechanical shock, vibration, frequent
switching, and environmental extremes.
Round RopeLED Runs circles Around the Incandescent Competition
TORRANCE, CA-June 27, 2003 - LEDtronics® announces Round RopeLED,
its newest offering in LED (Light Emitting Diode) accent lighting. Housed
within a flexible PVC tube with a diameter of 0.5" (13mm) and at
a length of at least 6.5 feet (2m). Round RopeLED features 10 LEDs per
foot (36 per meter) that are spaced, 1.10" (27.7mm) apart. RopeLED's
weather-resistant 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... 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 comes standard in 120V; 12V DC
and 240V are available as options. Outdoors uses include, but are not
limited to, lighting decks, pathways, theme parks, trees, building edge
decor lighting and driveways. Choose from red, blue, green, yellow and
white LED colors. RopeLED tubes are marked at intervals where they can
be cut, enabling you to customize the length or to splice together different
colored RopeLED segments. RopeLED can be held in place with small plastic
clips that snap onto the tube, and then nailed, screwed or glue to an
adjacent surface.
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,
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.
