Addressing the lighting industry's need for smaller, more powerful, and long-lasting LEDs for applications like refrigerators, freezers, and washing machines,Philips Lumileds has introduced the LUXEON c LED. The company states that LUXEON c enables more efficient, cost effective, environmentally friendly lighting solutions for the tens of millions of appliances, tools, and portable applications that typically use a 10W to 40W conventional light bulb. According to Philips Lumileds, implementing this new LED can reduce operating costs, energy consumption, and deliver a better experience for the owner.

The product specifications are;
Small form factor 2.04 mm x 1.64 mm x 0.7 mm
typical 82 lumens per watt and 85 lumens
typical forward voltage of 2.95 V
70% lumen maintenance at 20,000 hours
ANSI aligned binning CCT 5000K to 5700K.

"There are hundreds, if not thousands, of different lighting applications each with their own light source requirements. We have two objectives. First, to provide a path for our customers to move to a solution that makes sense for their business, and second, to enable them to rethink their design, take full advantage of the size and power of our LUXEON LEDs, and deliver a solution that adds value when compared to the original bulb-based solutions," said Frank Harder, Vice President of Product Marketing. LUXEON c is available from Future Lighting Solutions. Complete documentation is available at www.philipslumileds.com.
