by AF-0221 c3 — February 24, 2010—Clean-energy lamp developer Lumiette Inc. has introduced a lamp using an octagonal flat panel design that, says the company, will revolutionize the lighting industry. In addition, the company has released a convenient light tile that makes it easy for designers and manufacturers to quickly develop innovative round fixtures using the new lamp.
Lumiette’s Octagonal FPL (flat panel lamp), Model #888, is intended for use in new fixture designs in the category of existing 2D compact fluorescent lamp (CFL) configurations. It measures 8 inches on each of 8 sides, is energy efficient (26 watts, 60 lumens/watt), and is intended for use in round fixtures, sconces, ceiling fixtures, bulkhead, and other designs.
Lumiette’s flat panel lamps consume 75 percent less energy than incandescent light bulbs, last five times longer than compact fluorescent lamps (CFL), are more attractive, and suitable for a wider range of applications.
To further spur the fixture manufacturers creativity and provide support for this state-of-the-art flat panel TV technology based light source, Lumiette provides hands on assistance that will Samples of the Lumiette Octagonal FPL will be available in March 2010. Production of the lamp with accompanying ballast will commence in May 2010.
