One of the reasons that LED lighting is the most efficient light source is due to the fact that continuous switching has no negative impact on the lifetime of the light source. One of the lesser known advantages of LEDs...
PowerLed are introducing a new range of Casambi enabled products, extending our capabilities to support Bluetooth Low Energy and the Bluetooth Mesh Network. BLE has a number of compelling advantages, not shared by other, more traditional networks. BLE is the...
What does TCO stand for? Total Cost of Ownership What does TCO mean? TCO is a way of looking at the complete cost of an asset, including initial acquisition, maintenance, repairs and other associated costs throughout the lifetime of the...
What does CCT stand for? CCT stands for Correlated Colour Temperature. What is CCT? It gives a spectrum of general colour from 1000 Kelvins to around 7000 Kelvins when associated with lamps or light sources. For more information on Kelvin’s,...
We often get asked “why should I consider LED lighting?”. LED lighting has enormous potential, and the benefits are becoming more well known. Here we discuss the main advantages of LED lighting, and why you should consider PowerLed for your...
What does CRI stand for? CRI stands for Colour Rendering Index, also sometimes referred to as the Colour Rendition Index. It is a quantitative measure of the ability of a light source to reproduce the colours of various objects faithfully...
Why choose LED? LED lighting installations provide a number of benefits over traditional lighting including, significant energy savings, reduced maintenance costs, controllability and saturated colours. The relative importance of these benefits depends on your application, for example the benefit of...
This can be easily calculated and uses information that should be readily available on the data sheet for your driver. PFC (power factor correction) x efficiency gives a number which if you then divide the output power (in this example...
What is LED Binning? LED Binning is a practice carried out to ensure high quality and consistency in the performance of LED light output and colour. How does LED Binning work? LED Binning is the process of grouping LEDs together...
What is an LED driver? An LED is a low voltage light source which requires a constant DC voltage, like that of an LED driver, to ensure it functions as efficiently as possible. LED drivers convert the incoming AC power...
