Lighting Science Group is offering a new line of LED products, which are built in the USA, including A19, PAR38, PAR30, PAR20, MR16, and G25 bulb. The company claims that they have approximately 50 percent more lumens than competing products, at a dramatically lower retail price.
by way of comparison, the company points out that Lighting Science Group's American-made Definity LED A19 bulb has a longer life and retails at approximately half the suggested retail price ($20 vs. $40) of GE's recently announced, but not available until later this year, Energy Smart A19 bulb that will be made in China.
Zach Gibler, Chief Executive Officer of Lighting Science Group, said that the Definity line sets a new standard for lighting performance at an affordable price, offer the best lumens per dollar package and can save Americans hundreds of dollars in maintenance, replacement, and energy cost. Furthermore, the Definity LED bulbs contain no mercury, are completely recyclable, are instant on, and offer outstanding light quality.
Lighting Science notes that the Definity LED line was tested under the rigorous LM-79 process by an independent laboratory approved by the U.S. Department of Energy's CALiPER program. The company says that the testing results show that the Definity LED bulbs outperform competing products on the market. Lighting Science claims that the Definity LED bulbs have a payback of one to two years.
Gibler said that with the phase-out of incandescent light bulbs, Americans can now purchase long-lasting, environmentally responsible and sustainable replacements that makes economic sense--without sacrificing lighting quality.
The suggested retail price of the Definity line of LED light bulbs ranges from $20 to $55, depending on type, and are being offered through lighting distributors and directly by Lighting Science Group.
