Viper Networks, Inc. joined hands with LEDs America, Inc., and recently due to Viper’s escalating sales of the LED-O® lighting products along with a higher sales forecast for the next two quarters, LEDs America is expected to expand their production capabilities with their newest LED-O tube products to replace fluorescent T8 and T12 tubes.
LEDs America broke through the 100Lm/watt barrier by establishing a new standard of energy use of T8 light tubes down to a remarkable 14.6 last year. Indeed, the new standard for 4 foot T8 light tubes is now 14.6 W, 1400 directional lumens according to LM-79 and LM-80 tests. LEDs America has the U.S. Department of Energy’s Lighting Facts Label and LM-80 to support the Company for this new standard.
he standard fluorescent tube can now be replaced by a 14.6W LED-O in existing fixtures. The downward directed lumens output is equivalent to the fluorescent tubes as half of its lumens output is lost in the fixture. This will save over 65% of energy used for lights and 80% of heat that needs to be cooled down by air conditioning. The LED-O® T8 tube emits no UV light, contains no mercury or any hazardous vapors, is 100% recyclable, and is warranted for 5 years.
