New R16 LED Lamps Deliver Energy-Efficiency and Long Life for Showcase Lights, Area Lights and Signage
01-SEP-11

(Free-Press-Release.com September 1, 2011, 9/01/2011 — TORRANCE, Calif., August 30, 2011 — LEDtronics® announces its latest generation of direct incandescent–replacement R16 LED Reflector Lamps with standard 26mm medium screw base. The bulbs operate on 120VAC and provide a concentrated 40–degree beam of light from a cluster of 40 LEDs.

The energy–efficient R16–40–SIW–120AM (3,000K warm white) and R16–40–TPW–120AM (5000K natural white) draw just 1.7 watts each and provide up to 140 lumens. Up to 90% savings in energy costs over incandescent and halogen bulbs, and an operating lifespan of up to 50,000–hour LED make these high–efficacy R16 lamps ideal for architects, retail store display creators, entertainment designers and other lighting professionals to integrate economical illumination into maintenance–intensive applications—display spot lights, showcase lights, area lights, signage and backlighting, in addition to reading and task lights. They also can be used as individual pixels in a large dot matrix screen and moving signs.

A clear, shatter–resistant lexan lens and a white polycarbonate sleeve protect the LED cluster from environmental stresses, making the lamps suitable for both indoor and outdoor use. 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 what befalls an incandescent bulb when its filament breaks.

The virtually maintenance–free LEDtronics R16 lamps are also environmentally friendly—they contain neither lead nor mercury. As well, they reduce light pollution in outdoor installations and, as a result, are compatible with the international “Dark Skies” initiative.

Because of their low power draw, they are ideal for use with alternate or renewable energy resources like solar and wind power.

The R16–40–SIW–120AM and R16–40–TPW–120AM bulbs come with a 3–year limited warranty and are priced $49.50 each; availability is stock to 4–6 weeks for special requirements. Large–quantity discounts are available.
