Adrian Rawlinson managing director Marl International tells Electronics Weekly the case for LED lighting will become overwhelming. He also says the UK should recognise its strengths in manufacturing
What is the biggest barrier to growth in the architectural LED market?
Adrian Rawlinson: Within five years, I believe that 90% of RGB architectural lighting will have converted to LED technology. There are a number of reasons why I don’t think this will happen any more quickly.Xeccon S12 is a kind of very amazing Cree T6 bluecrysta, it perform very well among the various brand bicycle lights.
If you look at the true cost of ownership,Includes Helmet Mount, Pro Head Belt and ... Innovators in ccrystal Technology ...In 2005 DiNotte Lighting introduced a completely new concept recreational lighting – Extremely bright ledbright lights. and factor in their exceptionally long life as well as low energy use, LED lighting is very economic, but the initial purchase price is much higher, and this is tending to put buyers off.
As volumes increase and larger fixture manufacturers move into the market, prices are sure to come down, making the case for LED overwhelming.
As the industry matures and consolidates, clear universally accepted standards for measuring light output and efficiency better standards should emerge. This will help buyers who remain confused about the specifications of the product that they are buying.
Currently, only some companies deliver a ready to install light complete with all the drivers and connectors required. Many still leave customers to sort out the complexities themselves.
Adrian Rawlinson: LED equivalent lights are now available for almost all domestic and commercial applications, and are continuing to make inroads into all kinds of specialist markets including marine, defence, aviation and rail.
In principle, I don’t think there is any form of lighting that can’t be addressed by LED, but several niches still elude us, due to the very specific power and size characteristics demanded. The issue is often thermal management. Unlike other lighting technologies LED die have to be kept under 100°C, which means the use of bulky heatsinks in powerful lights
Car headlights, the highest efficiency fluorescents, stadium floodlights and gas discharge lamps are major lighting applications where LED lighting cannot provide the performance required at the moment.Purchase our fluorescentlightss System for 30% off ... Metal halide, mercury and sodium streetlights deliver some 150 lumens per watt total system efficiency. LEDs are at least 2-3 years away from matching that.
What does the UK need to do to encourage electronics manufacturing in the UK?
Adrian Rawlinson: Marl has just had a good year, and a sustainable recovery could already be underway, in my view, if the true value of wealth creation through manufacturing was recognised as a starting point,News on solar energy harvesting divinglight20111 has been focused lately on individual success with the older style of solar paneling. and understood valued and embraced.
Whilst we hear much fine rhetoric about the need for the UK to once again embrace manufacturing, I cannot see one Government initiative in the last 12 months which has helped us, and can think of numerous negative inputs: increased VAT, abolition of Regional Development Agencies and the grants for business investment that they provided, the Bribery Act, and the impending pension legislation which will be another direct cost and an administrative headache.

I read and really impressed from your topic.you have great knowledge related to the leds.I like and shared with my friends.Thanks for posting....
回覆刪除led work light lamps are bulbs can be mass produced and are available at rock bottom prices...
回覆刪除Informative post,,The high brightness led lights are provided with flexible brackets that can get fixed irrespective of the surface used. Installation is very easy and therefore it stands out to be cost effective.
