LEDs Change the Landscape of Outdoor Lighting
 LED
Bulbs replace incandescent lamps.
GardenLED Series GDL001 LED Bulbs replace 7 Watt LV526 T5 Wedge Base Incandescent
lamps used in malibu-styled landscape lighting fixtures. Linear-configured
LED lamps feature T5 wedge base and 16 white 5 mm LEDs on double-sided
PCB. Units draw 1.3 W of power and are used in 12 V systems, making
them suited for solar-powered systems and other alternative power
generating systems. LEDs offer average life span of 100,000 hr and
are impervious to environmental extremes.
LEDs Change the Landscape of Outdoor Lighting
TORRANCE, CA - April 19, 2004 - LEDtronics is taking a grass roots approach
to converting incandescent installations to the benefits of LED technology
with introduction of the GardenLED Series GDL001 Direct Replacement LED
Bulbs for 7 Watt LV526 T5 Wedge Base Incandescent lamps used in popular
malibu-styled landscape lighting fixtures. The linear-configured LED
lamp features a T5 wedge base. It has 16 White 5mm LEDs (8 per side in
two columns of 4) on a double-sided PCB and draws only 1.3 Watts of power
compared with the 7 Watts used by the incandescent lamp, resulting in
lower electric bills. Not only does the GardenLED Series GDL001 lower
your power usage, it also reduces maintenance costs since LEDs last for
an average of 100,000 hours. That's over 10 years! Multiply the savings
by the number of landscape lighting units installed and the savings is
significant. The GardenLED Series GDL001 bulb is for use in 12V systems,
which makes it the ideal illuminator for solar-powered systems and other
alternative power generating systems. Groundskeepers, landscape architects,
and environmentally aware consumers will find these lights to be excellent
replacements for short-lived, energy-hungry incandescent installations.
Solid-state design renders LEDs impervious to electrical and mechanical
shocks, vibrations, frequent switchings and environmental extremes. Lamps
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. 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), LED lamps
operate reliably year-after-year making them ideal lights for decorative
and night task lighting and applications such as large message panels,
billboards, scoreboards, time and temperature signs, arcade machines,
casino accent lights, theme LEDs Change the Landscape of Outdoor Lighting
and amusement parks, stage lights, carnivals, theaters, elevators, aviation
instruments, automotive cabin lights, railroads, bridges, display counters
and ornamental lighting tasks. LEDs can be used as individual pixels
in large dot matrix screens, full-color screens, animated signs and displays.
LED lamps use only 10% - 20% of the energy consumed by equivalent incandescent
lamps that when combined with their maintenance-free operation results
in substantial
cost savings.
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 LEDs, low-cost snap-in and relampable Panel Mount
LEDs, high intensity sunlight-visible Discrete LEDs, PCB LEDs circuit
board status indicators, surface mount diodes SMT LEDs, full-spectrum
