Lusio® Solid State Lighting Reshapes Commercial and Industrial Market with Significant Release of 80 Fixtures Backed by 7-Year Warranties
Innovative high bay, low bay, and aisle lighting fixtures deliver solid lumen performance with precise optics, low operating temperatures and superior energy efficiency with LUXEON LEDs
Made in the USA, Lusio fixtures use housings comprised of up to 80 percent recycled aluminum and are designed to meet the rigorous physical demands and light level requirements of commercial and industrial lighting applications. Features and benefits include:
- Precise Optics: Lusio fixtures are engineered with optical reflectors that deliver five lighting distributions in mounting heights from 12-60 feet (3.5-18 m). The specially engineered reflectors also minimize glare and deliver a substantially higher percentage of usable footcandles on key work areas than traditional HID and fluorescent fixtures.
- Energy Efficiency and Low Maintenance: Lusio fixtures offer 35-70% energy savings through a direct replacement of HID and fluorescent fixtures. Because Lusio fixtures do not contain mercury or other hazardous substances, additional savings are achieved by elimination of costs for mercury lamp disposal. Lusio fixtures have an impressive overall fixture efficacy between 70 and 90 lumens per watt based on various fixture types and can generate more than 14,000 lumens for illumination of large retail, commercial, and industrial facilities.
- Thermal Efficiency: Lusio fixtures are one of the coolest operating commercial and industrial fixtures available in the market. The combination of specially engineered heat sinks and dissipation techniques, thermal transfer technologies and the superior thermal junction (Tj) temperature rating of 150°F (60° C) of the LUXEON Rebel ES LEDs used in the fixtures, allow Lusio to achieve up to 140° F (60° C) environmental operating temperature approval ratings by UL/CE. The overall cool fixture operating temperature of Lusio not only increases the longevity and reliability of the fixture, but also decreases AC cooling energy costs as compared to typical HID and high-output fluorescent fixtures.
- Controllable: Lusio fixtures interface to standard 0-10v dimmers and are offered with occupancy sensors to further reduce their energy costs.
- 7-Year Warranties: Lusio fixtures come with a standard 7-year replacement warranty. Full terms and warranty details are available at www.LusioLighting.com.

Lusio Leverages Industry Leading LUXEON Rebel ES from Philips Lumileds
Lusio Solid-State Lighting selected the LUXEON Rebel ES for use in its fixtures after extensive analyses of several LED packages.
“While many manufacturers seem to be chasing lumens as the sole criteria for LED selection, LightWild also considered many other factors,” Stafford said. “We believe that the Rebel ES will deliver super-long life stability and performance value for our customers.”
“LightWild looked for a solution to meet their objectives for superior light output, efficacy, and quality of light, each of which is delivered by LUXEON Rebel ES,” said Steve Barlow, Executive Vice President of Sales and Marketing at Philips Lumileds. “We are proud that they have chosen the LUXEON Rebel ES for their Lusio product line.”
Models
Each distribution is available in a 2×2 model (81 LEDs) or 1×4 model (54 LEDs).
Environments
Lusio is constructed with various environmental conditions in mind. The Open fixture design is UL dry/damp location listed while the Lusio Enclosed fixtures are UL wet location listed (IP65).

Sylvania Shows Off Their LED 4′ T8 Fluorescent Replacement Lamp
I recently attended the Sylvania LED Road Show where they introduced their upcoming LED 4′ T8 Replacement Lamp. The product name is a mouthful and in two parts:
LE-RT8-120/48
DL1600/25W/80/41
Absolutely the best T8 LED I’ve witnessed and trust me, I’ve seen many. Phenomenal light output and really a dead ringer to the fluorescent T8. Pricing will be the caveat here and wattage is a bit high, but other than that, Sylvanis has put together a great product.

Next Generation: GE Aluminum PAR38 Comapct Fluorescent arrived to my desk today!
GE – brining halogen features to compact fluorescent lamps!
Funny how timing works. I was just commenting the other day how it seemed that the majority of CFL manufacturers “missed the boat” when it came to producing a PAR38 CFL (excluding Sylvania, who did actually come to marker, although they were kind of secretive about it). Now GE has arrived with something we can all use!
Environmentally Conscious – Energy efficient, lead free glass, and long life means fewer lamp replacements vs. standard halogen light sources.
Outstanding Energy Efficiency – Reduce energy costs by up to $52 over the life fo the lamp vs. a standard 75 watt halogen PAR38 while maintaining nearly the same light output (1185 lumens vs 1050)

Neptun Light produces one of the best dimmable Par38 CFLs available on the market
For some unknown reason, lighting manufacturers have steered away from making dimmable PAR38 compact fluorescent lamps. You’ll easily find cfls in the R30 and R40 style lamps that are dimmable, yet the PAR38 was left behind. This is odd since the PAR38 is your prototypical flood lamp and one of the most common lamps in existance.
Neptun Light is taking full advantage of this sweet spot in the market place by producing the 938-ADIM Series. Neptun Light produces the PAR38 CFL in 14,18,20, and 23 Watts for Analog Dimming Controls.
The lamps feature:
•DIMMABLE in range of 100% – 10% using ordinary dimmers
•New! Patented flicker-free ANALOG DIMMING™ system
•Reliable start at the lowest setting
•Color Temperature of 2700°K – Matching incandescent BPAR bulbs
•High Luminous Efficacy: Up to 45 Lm/W
•Wide range of operation ambient temperatures: -20°C – +60°C

LED Candle lamps
Trying to find a really good LED Candelabra base lamp has been a difficult challenge. Candelabra based lamps are generally found in chandeliers, candles stands, and decorative wall fixtures. Like most LED products, there are several companies that put products on the market, but the vast majority simply disappoint when it comes to the quality and quantity of light that is being generated. The biggest problem with the current CACs (candle with candelabra base) is that most can barely replace a 15w incandescent, while most people need something to replace 25-40w incandescent lamp. As of December 2010, the best products on the market to replace an incandescent candelabra based lamps are:
1. Megaman 
Models:
LC0105CS – LED Candle
