Dimmable LED A19 Bulb for Omnidirectional Illumination Consumes Only 13 Watts, Replaces Incandescents Up to 60W

By LEDtronics, Inc.

Torrance, Calif., February 19, 2013 — LEDtronics, Inc., entering its 30th year of leadership in innovative LED lighting solutions, announces the newest members in its series of high-brightness, energy-efficient LED replacements for A19-style light bulbs for home and commercial use. The DEC-A19F-13W-XIW-120AWD DécorLED™ Series comes with a softly diffused, precision domed lens that directs light in an omni-directional illumination pattern.

The dimmable DEC-A19F LED bulb is available in warm white (3000 Kelvin). The A19-style LED bulbs offer long-term durability, low power consumption, environmental sustainability and money savings. It runs on a flexible voltage range of 100-120 VAC, requiring no special adapters, and replaces incandescent bulbs up to 60 watts while consuming only13 watts of power.

In addition, the DEC-A19F-13W DécorLED™ boasts an outstanding color quality of 80+ CRI, a powerful 956 lumens of brightness, easy drop-in installation in existing 26mm Edison screw-in base sockets, and sturdy construction with UV-stabilized polycarbonate lens over high brightness LEDs encapsulated around a unique grill-style, heat-sinking, magnesium-alloy housing.

Because LEDs have no filament, their solid-state design renders them impervious to shock, vibration, frequent switching and environmental extremes. With an average lifespan of more than 50,000 hours, white LED bulbs operate more than 20 times longer than the equivalent incandescent bulb, eliminating repeated relamping! The DEC-A19-13W Series features enhanced passive cooling that reduces junction temperatures, extending the life of the lamp. The fact that they run remarkably cool also means they greatly reduce the load on air conditioning normally associated with the use of incandescent lamps.

Dimmable with an external dimmer (some dimmers have better performance than others), these economical, elegant light bulbs offer a directional light that is perfect for use in recessed lighting, table/floor lamps, accent and decorative lighting, garage or workshop lights, down lights and ceiling cans, marquee signage and retail display. As a matter of fact, they are ideal for use anywhere you are currently using an incandescent A-19-style light bulb, including outdoor applications when contained in a sealed housing.

Unlike compact fluorescents, LEDs contain no harmful mercury, and because they emit only negligible amounts of heat and no ultraviolet nor infrared light, they protect what they are illuminating — perfect around artwork.

Since LED lights are 300% more efficient than compact fluorescent lamps, these bulbs are perfect operating on alternative or renewable energy resources such as solar or wind power, in cold or warm environments.

This maintenance-free lamp comes with a 5-year warranty period.

The LEDtronics DEC-A19F-13W retails for $26.50 each (large-quantity discount pricing available to qualified distributors). Availability is stock to 4-6 weeks for special requirements.

Miniature 2-Pin/G4 Base, 12VDC LED Bulbs Offer up to 90% Energy Savings over Xenon & Halogen T2/T3/T4 Tube Lamps

By LEDtronics, Inc.

Torrance, Calif., February 1, 2013 — LEDtronics®, Inc., the industry’s most innovative LED lamp manufacturer since 1983, announces a series of Bi-Pin G4 base T3.3 tubular LED miniature lamps as direct replacement for 12V xenon and halogen T2/T3/T4 bulbs from 8 watts up to15 watts, including xenon 1205X (5W) and halogen lamps 774 (8W), 891 (8W, 12.8V) and 773 (8W).

The LEDtronics LEDG4BP-1.5W series of lamps works on power supplies for 12VDC to 14VDC max, and consume only 1.5 watts at 12VDC — up to 90% reduction in power consumption. LEDG4BP-1.5W-XIW-012V (2700 to 3200K warm white) puts out 80 lumens, while LEDG4BP-1.5W-XWW-012V (4000K to 4500K natural white) emits 90 lumens.

These miniature lamps come with a dual-pin G4 base and are available in 3200K warm white or 4500K natural white light colors. They are a perfect fit in applications such as pendant lamps, under-cabinet lighting, landscape lighting, electric signs, scoreboards, step lights, puck downlights, RVs, boats, car bulbs or anywhere T2/T3/T4 halogen or xenon bulbs are used. A removable 5.2mm lead spacer is included.

The solid-state design of the LEDG4BP-1.5W Series LED lamps renders them impervious to electrical and mechanical shock, vibration, frequent switching and environmental extremes. They boast faster turn-on and reaction time compared to halogen lamps yet provide comparable luminous intensity and pure wavelength light for a more uniform illumination without halation.

Featuring an omnidirectional beam pattern, in typical applications they provide sharper, higher intensity illumination and better visibility than standard lamps and achieve full brightness more rapidly.

The lamps are rated at 50,000 hours MTBF for white LED light, and their PBT housing helps dissipate heat, keeping them cool. Their long life and reliability in a wide range of operating temperatures lower costs by reducing re-lamp frequency, while their cool operation translates into less load on air conditioning.

The LEDtronics LEDG4BP-1.5W Series of lamps are environment-friendly — they contain neither mercury nor lead, and are ROHS and CE compliant.

Priced at $7.50 each in the two-piece quantity, the LEDG4BP-1.5W-XIW-012V (2700 to 3200K warm white) and LEDG4BP-1.5W-XWW-012V (4000K to 4500K natural white) come with a 2-year warranty. Samples and/or prototype quantities are available to qualified customers.
