Interior Design News Innovative LED T8 tube light launched
Taiwanese manufacturer and exporter GlacialTech Inc has announced the availability of T8 Light Emitting Diode (LED) light tubes, offering what it claims is a longer lasting and more energy efficient alternative to traditional fluorescent tubes.
The LED T8 tubes come in ten models which range in brightness according to the number of LEDs present over the length of the tube. The three sizes of tube vary in length from 580mm to 1198mm to the longest which stands at 1498mm. The LED T8 Tubes are designed to replace the equivalent Fluorescent Lamps (FL) available in markets today, using lower wattage compared with the original products - input varies between 9.5W on the low brightness model to 24W on the high brightness model. GlacialTech uses what it claims are extremely high quality components designed for high brightness and a long life span. The lumens start at 480lm at a flux of 60 lm/W on the shorter lower light versions while the high brightness longest T8 Tubes are an incredibly bright 2560lm at 80lm/W flux.
The innovative product incorporates the same structure and style of traditional FL tubes but delivers a brighter performance per watt, with less heat radiation and few of the pitfalls faced by traditional FL tubes. The LED T8 Tubes can be used for general everyday use for indoor applications or outdoor applications and incorporates all the latest luminary technology garnered from GlacialTech's resources, combining years of experience in designing cooling systems as well as all manner of consumer electronic device power supplies.
GlacialTech LED-T8 tubes use Super High-brightness LED emitters that consume between 9W on the smaller models up to 24W on the larger models. As a result, the LED-T8 tube luminaires are much cooler within a range of -20 to +40°C. The efficient cooling structure of the tubes is optimally designed to keep the >50000hr longevity of the device intact, while maintaining full brightness for longer.
