LightFair International 2012 Report II: Philips 100W Equivalent LED Products to Hit Market in Fall

LightFair International 2012 commenced on May 8-11 in Las Vegas. LEDinside conducted interviews with global big names as well as channel distributors and contractors. One of the hightlights at LFI 2012 was the 100W equivalent LED light bulb efforts by Philips, GE and other companies. Given the bans on 100W (and above) incandescent light bulb imposed by countries all around the world, Philips got a head start on announcing its mass production of new 100W equivalent LED light bulbs.

For Asian manufacturers, it requires strengths in cost, technology and channel distribution in order to produce 100W equivalent LED light bulbs. Taiwanese and Korean makers are confident about meeting the requirements. The LED light bulb’s luminous efficacy has to reach 1400lm-1600lm with the bulb being relatively light, not to mention that beam angle and efficiency are just as crucial. Philips said its 100W equivalent LED light bulb will hit the market in fall 2012; the price has yet to be announced. LEDinside predicts the LED light bulb will likely enter the market between Q3 and Q4.

According to LEDinside’s interview with Philips, the 100W replacement will be 23W, named EnduraLED, which is 75% more energy-efficient and has a lifespan 25 times longer compared to incandescent light bulbs. Its luminous flux reaches 1700lm, meeting Energy Star’s standard for a 100W equivalent LED light bulb. With the current electricity prices and traditional light bulb prices, the new EnduraLED bulb can save US$211 throughout its lifespan.

The new LED bulb is expected to be certified by Energy Star and received well by companies and hospitals for its energy-saving efficiency. The bulb is warm white light instead of cold white light.

According to LEDinside, the new LED bulb incorporates Philips Lumileds LED chip with a luminous flux much higher than that of its previously-released 75W equivalent LED light bulb.

Philips’ 60W equivalent light bulb won the L Prize of United States Department of Energy.

 

OLED Light Sources Provide Flexibility for Lighting Designers

Philips also exhibited its OLED lighting module and OLED lighting fixtures.

Aside from some novel designs showcased, Philips also presented a new OLED product, which is able to change into a mirror when sensing a human body approaching.

Philips also exhibited its endeavors in commercial lighting and public lighting areas. The company released new T8 and T12 LED light tubes. The tubes are plastic, but they have decent conformity, with “Made in Taiwan” printed underneath them. The T8 and T12 LED light tubes both target at the commercial and office lighting markets.
