What are the benefits of LED lights over traditional MH/HPS lights?

●Lower energy consumption; Up to 80 percent of electrical energy is converted to light energy; For this reason, lower-wattage LED lights may replace comparable light fixtures. For example, a 100W LED shoebox light may replace a 200W metal halide shoebox light.
●Longer service life; LED bulbs can last up to 100,000 hours
●Durability; LED bulbs are resistant to thermal, vibrating shocks and turn on instantly from -40°C to 185°C, making them ideal for applications subject to frequent on-off cycling
●Flexibility; LEDs allow for directional distribution of light
●No infrared or ultraviolet radiation – UV light attracts bugs
●No toxic chemicals; LEDs contain no mercury and do not require ballasts, which are often manufactured with PCBs
●Very low heat generation; LEDs are can reduce climate control costs and are especially suited for cold storage facilities
●No frequency interference; no ballast to interfere with radio and television signals
●Wide range of color; LEDs can be manufactured to produce all colors of the spectrum without filters as well as white light in a variety of color temperatures

What component of the LED system is typically the first to fail?

Almost always, it is the driver. That is why it is important to know who makes the driver in the LED fixture or retrofit kits you purchase. Typically a good driver should last more than 50,000 hours.

What is the most common reason LEDs fail?

Heat. Heat is the enemy of electronics, the hotter it is, the shorter the light. However, with good design, you can create a light or fixture that can withstand some high heat environments. Typically a fixture or bulb with an external driver will last longer than an integrated fixture that has the LEDs and driver as one unit.

What is Design Lights Consortium (DLC)?

DLC is DesignLights Consortium, the governing body that certifies the quality and efficiency of LED Lights. A DLC Qualified product may be eligible for rebates. Currently there are two standard, DLC Standard and DLC Premium. DLC Premium is more efficient and will save you more money in terms of operating costs. Green Inova Lighting most of products are DLC qulified, like LED shoeboxlights, highbay lights, canopy lights, retrofit kits, floodlights, wall pack lights etc.

What is important in regards to color consistency?

To make the color more consistent, we use the exact same bin for all the lights in a single project. GI will finer tune the binning that the LED manufacturer has performed. We have strong relationship with CREE/OSRAM and other LED chip suppliers, and can fine-tune the final color output. In most instances, we have guaranteed a color matching of less than 25 degrees Kelvin.

What are the advantages of dimming LEDs?

●Saves energy, because less energy is used for reduced output levels.
●Extends life; the electronic components run cooler.
●Increases flexibility in usage of space. A brightly lit space for reading or an office space can turn into a presentation/conference area by dimming.
●Increases productivity by enabling individual control of lights in order to reduce eye strain and fatigue, or to improve concentration.

How many lumens do I need to replace 400W Metal Halide High Bay?

The typical range is as low as 17,000 lumens and as high as 23,000 lumens. Specific Photo-metrics plays a major part in determining how much you need, spacing, and reflectivity of the environment. In general, 150W LED Linear highbay or UFO highbay can replace 400W Metal Halide High Bay.

What type of PL lamps bases are available?

LED PL Lamps are the perfect retrofit for your existing CFL, available in E26, G23, GX23, G24 and GX24 bases.
