“Cree’s new KBL LED High-Bay Series is the ideal solution for the high-bay market and delivers an average of 2,000 lumens more than the nearest competitor,” said David Elien, Cree senior vice president, lighting. “With best-in-class lumen maintenance in applications up to 50C ambient, the KBL Series offers unprecedented reliability for the rigors of retail, industrial manufacturing and warehouse applications.”

The KBL Series is available in 18,000 and 24,000 nominal lumen output options with correlated color temperatures (CCTs) between 3000K and 5000K, and is virtually maintenance free with zero warm-up or restrike time.
