Some marriage proposals are elaborately staged affairs, designed with the goal of creating an over-the-top moment to remember.
But for one Rhode Island couple, a simple and spontaneous engagement turned into a truly unforgettable experience, thanks to some priceless photos they never expected to be captured.
When Elan Spreiser, 23, and Koren Lockwood, 25, visited New York City earlier this month, the plan was to do some sightseeing in their favorite city. What Lockwood didn’t know was that her boyfriend was planning to pop the question.
“New York City is our place,” Spreiser told today interet about why it was important for him to propose during their visit to the Big Apple. “We always go for our anniversary and really enjoy it together.”
But his plan to propose to Lockwood on the observation deck at Rockefeller Center was foiled by the rainy spring weather. Still looking for a romantic place to propose, he took her to Central Park, where he tried to take her on a carriage ride — which she declined because of the rain.
“Then he said, ‘do you at least want to go see the horses?’" Lockwood recalled, laughing. “So I put him through the ringer trying to think of an idea of what he was going to do.”

Though the inclement weather was conspiring against him, Spreiser felt the urgent need to propose while they were still in the city, so he decided to pop the question right there on the sidewalk in front of Central Park.
Little did he know, Lockwood wasn't the only one who appreciated the romantic gesture.
Jennae Zuloaga, 23, had been standing nearby, checking her phone because she thought she was lost, when she saw the marriage proposal unfolding in front of her eyes.
“I immediately was like, ‘They need pictures of this moment, they’re going to want pictures,’ Zuloaga said.  
She was able to take two photos: one of Spreiser on one knee, and the other of the two embracing after Lockwood said yes. “I think it was just a magical kind of happenstance,” Zuloaga said, of being in a position to take the pictures.
When she approached the newly engaged couple to let them she know she had photographed their proposal, Spreiser hugged Zuloaga and told her, “You’re my favorite person right now, besides [my fiance].”
The couple still marvel that she was there to document the occasion, which Lockwood calls “half random act of kindness and half random act of God.” The two are still in touch with Zuloaga, and Lockwood said that they would like to invite her to their wedding, which will take place sometime next year.  
As for the proposal, Spreiser said he couldn’t be happier with how it turned out: “For something that went so not according to plan, it couldn’t have gone any better.”
And Zuloaga said that being a part of such a major moment in the couple’s life had personal significance to her as well.
“That was the quintessential New York moment that I needed to make me feel like I was in the right place at the right time,” she said. “To have it happen just after moving to New York was really special. It was a wonderful moment, and I couldn’t be happier for them.”

the same original lighting effect accordingly

Is current LEDs infrastructure matured for illumination applications? A sustainable technology platform along with standard LEDs light sources is necessary for the industry to healthily accelerate adopting of LEDs for illumination applications” questioned and stated by Jeffrey Chen, Chairman/CEO of NeoPac Lighting Group.According to Chen’s explanation, the NUP and NeoPac Light Engines can completely solve the intrinsic LEDs industry problem – the Products Sustainability, and the NUP is disruptive innovation to the whole LEDs illumination industry. NeoPac had filed more than 200 patents in NUP patent portfolio.

“By launching NeoPac Universal Platform and Standard LEDs Light Sources, NeoPac wants to re-define LEDs for illumination and to build a sustainable lighting infrastructure around the value chain. And this is also part of our Global Green Lighting Mission in NeoPac Opto and NeoBulb Lighting” Jeffrey stated.According to current technology roadmaps forecasted by LEDs chips and packages makers, the LEDs efficacy (lm/W at initial) will be continuously improving in the coming decade. Due to adopting of current existing LEDs lamps (packages) and the continuous increase of LEDs efficacy, the lighting companies have to periodically change their LEDs fixtures product versions at least every two years for keeping the same lighting effect of original luminaires design requirements.

Once the lumen output of LEDs packages for the luminaires are changed, the secondary optics and electronics (Drivers) will be also changed for fitting the same original lighting effect accordingly. Applications of safety certificates (UL, CE,…..) for any change in the LEDs luminaires should be re-conducted as well. A long time sophisticated useful life and reliability test for the new versions of LEDs luminaires will be also needed. How to keep the product models sustainable becomes a crucial issue for the whole supply chain. Without universal lighting platform and fixed LEDs light sources, products time to market and inventory will be also big issues to the LEDs Luminaires industry.

develop their sustainable LEDs lighting fixtures

The key to this thermal performance is NeoPac’s patented system-in-package (SIP) thermal management technology. “To solve the heat problem for ultra-high-power, single-package, point-light-source LEDs, the LEDs chips are mounted on a silicon submount. In turn, this submount is tightly attached onto a flat-ended heat pipe thermal dissipation module.” Chen said, “Compared to active cooling solution, our natural convection solution prevents the noise and useful life problems come from active cooling mechanism without any power consumption.Including the innovative LEDs light module for stage spotlight, NeoPac start to supply standard NeoPac Light Engines available at 500 Lm, 700 lm and 1,000 lm in 3rd quarter this year. A number of world leading lighting companies are start working to adopt NeoPac Universal Platform and NeoPac Light Engine to design and develop their sustainable LEDs lighting fixtures.

The Nuventix DLM Cooler is being used by customers such as YAHAM Omega, NeonFrance, SunLux, Eurdekian and Zumtobel to enable compact, customized cooling solutions that overcome the thermal challenges in luminaire design when using high-lumen output LED modules for general lighting. The Universal DLM Cooler is specially designed to provide active cooling for a downlight module and will be on display in finished luminaires at LightFair 2009 in New York.SynJet products from Nuventix are becoming the accepted method of LED cooling to maximize lumen output while providing optimal life of the luminaire,” said Jim Balthazar, president and CEO, Nuventix. “By solving thermal management obstacles, one of the biggest challenges in LED lighting design, the designer can focus on getting a production luminaire to market quickly.”

The SynJet Universal DLM Cooler is lightweight and small size, one-third the size of a passive cooling solution, which allows for an easier design – in turn, creating the ability to address a much larger segment of the market. The new luminaire design offers flexibility for installations that require both height limited areas and spots requiring small rough-in holes, without sacrificing high brightness. The unique circular shape can fit into a 140 mm hole while needing <90mm of height for the cooler and SynJet combination.YAHAM Omega has utilized the Nuventix SynJet fanless cooler for the higher lumen packages to reduce the size of the aluminum heat sink,” said Brian McMillin, product manager at YAHAM Omega. “Nuventix’s revolutionary solution provides for unmatched reliability for LED chip cooling.

the order visibility at least lasts to the next month

Already under development for two years, GlasWeld will continue to make advancements in the use of LED for auto glass repair until the technology is ready for widespread use in the marketplace.Based in Bend, Oregon, GlasWeld provides complete glass repair solutions—from revolutionary equipment to unparalleled training programs and technical support—for both flat glass and auto glass. The company’s flagship Gforce Scratch Removal System for glass scratch removal and led high bay light for windshield repair is distributed worldwide through an international distribution network. GlasWeld’s product lines have been developed based on decades of industry research, development and customer feedback.

Everlight had its March revenue of NT$805 million, surging from NT$600 million (US$17 million) for a month earlier. As contracts for LED backlights from NB PC and mobile-phone manufacturers rose, the market outlook for April looks pretty good, inspiring the company to put more efforts to develop lighting modules in addition to expanding their backlight business.Genesis also had its March revenue surging to NT$86 million (US$2.5 million), growing approximately 42% from same month a year ago. The substantial growth was mostly due to increasing demand from outdoor signage manufacturers and deliveries of streetlight modules to Europe and America. Revenue for this month is expected to reach NT$90 million (US$2.6 million) and the order visibility at least lasts to the next month. The company would very likely win streetlight contracts in several cities in eastern and northern China provinces, said K.J. Chung, chairman of the company.

"In fact, image quality is higher with a white LED backlight." Motomura said.White LED light sources are more efficient in boosting image quality because the white balance fluctuates more easily when the light source is RGB LEDs, explained Motomura. Additionally, image quality becomes more likely to degrade if the color gamut is extended more than necessary because it causes the display to render incorrect colors, he added.Considering the manufacturing costs, white LEDs are superior than led high bay light, too, in respect not only to the LED light source itself but also to the control system, Motomura explained, for White LED backlights only require a system to control white color, instead of the three RGB colors.



the light not affected by age, usage or temperature

We believe that the future of illumination is LEDs," said Chuck Berghoff, CEO of OptoElectronix. "The significant energy savings and ultra-long service lives will make LEDs the only choice for illumination. LEDs can be immediately integrated into products today such as appliances, display cases, and light fixtures where they are ideal for both replacement and new design applications.Berghoff says that the challenges for led high bay light have been in four areas: light output, color rendering ability, manufacturing cost, and configuration standards -- each of which is intimately interrelated with the other. "We believe that we are at the forefront of LED-based illumination," he said.

OptoElectronix is the leader in "The Art of LEDs" -- the conception, design, and manufacture of cutting-edge, standard, highly efficient LED-based light engines. LEDs will ultimately obsolete incandescent, halogen, and florescent lamps for most residential and commercial applications. To this end, OptoElectronix brings together many decades of unique expertise and experience in LED systems, an intimate knowledge of the lighting industry, and a thorough understanding of the manufacturing disciplines and requirements of both. OptoElectronix is currently focused on introducing a series of LED-based platforms that can be implemented into virtually any lighting application.The research on UV LED technology has lasted for two years, with the aim to resolve problems limiting the auto glass repair, including the consistency, portability and environmental impact. LEDs last longer than fluorescent lamps and contain no toxic waste, reducing replacement cost and minimizing environmental impact.

“It is widely known that fluorescent bulbs contain mercury and are difficult to dispose of properly, which makes LED attractive from an environmental standpoint because it contains no toxic chemicals,” said Randy Mackey, director of research and development for led high bay light are unaffected by temperature, so they will also contribute to quality consistency for windshield repair, despite the season or climate.The company has integrated UV LEDs into its ProCur Radial Curing Lamp, the industry’s only lamp specifically designed for windshield repair patented by the company five years ago, to make it more durable, working from smaller rechargeable powers sources, and with the intensity of the light not affected by age, usage or temperature.

with one set comprised of flood bulb

Although aimed primarily at lighting, PowerPSoC is also expected to find application in white goods and industrial control, reducing component count and power consumption while improving reliability. Automotive applications are also envisaged, but not in the short term.This April, the month of the 40th World Earth Day, Lemnis Lighting has released a new energy-efficient LED product, the Pharox LED bulb. The bulb developed using the most advanced lighting technology produces light equivalent to that of a 40 Watt incandescent bulb, while with only 5W of energy. And the life-span of the bulb reaches up to 50,000 hours or approximately 35 years.The led high bay light bulb is compatible with standard fittings and has a stylish design that looks more like a traditional incandescent bulb, yet is 90 percent more energy efficient and lasts 50 times longer.

CFL bulbs have been regarded as the most energy-efficient light source by many experts, but they contain harmful levels of mercury which makes them difficult to recycle and dispose of. In contrast, Pharox LED bulbs are completely recyclable and mercury-free while lasting eight times longer than CFLs.Lighting accounts for up to 20 percent of our global energy consumption.” said the company chairman Frans Otten. “This Earth Day, if every American household switched four 40W light bulbs to Pharox LED bulbs, the United States would save $113 billion in energy costs over the lifetime of the Pharox bulbs.Comparing with the inefficient Fresnel lights, the ultra-thin and portable 1 x 1 Bi-Focus offers a cool-to-the-touch, low energy draw solution that provides the flexibility of the width of light beam.

The 1 x 1 Bi-Focus features two independent sets of daylight color balanced LED bulbs, with one set comprised of flood bulbs and the other of spot bulbs, and variable flood or spot output can be achieved by cross-fading between the two sets of LEDs. The 1 x 1 Bi-Focus utilizes 1152 led high bay light, thus projects the same total light output whether the user selects spot, flood or any combination of the two.As other Litepanels 1 x 1 units, the Bi-Focus offers infinite dimming from 100 per cent to zero with minimal color temperature change. And Brightness can be controlled either by a built-in dimmer dial on the back or by the DMX controller. The fit-anywhere Bi-Focus runs on battery or AC power, including an optional 1.75 hour onboard battery pack.

low thermal resistance of the housing has made

More than 50 new products are planned to be developed this year by Khatod, adding to its existing 690-SKU catalog. A part of the optics will be developed through the guidance from Future.With a low operating current of 20mA, the luminous intensities of the new white and warm white are respectively up to 1200mcd (typical) and 1000mcd (typical). And the long life span due to the silicone encapsulation and low thermal resistance of the housing has made the new white Right Angle DomiLEDs the most durable product in a side view package.Fulfilling the stringent requirements of the automotive industry, the new Right Angle DomiLED are also suitable for a wide range of  sideway illumination applications where space is limited, such as backlighting of cellular phone displays and keypads, backlighting LCDs for PDAs, digital camera, signal and channel lighting.

The mass-production of the white color and the warm white version will separately begin by mid of April 2009 and mid of May 2009.YAHAM is one of the world leading SMT LED manufacturers. It has an excellence driven organization and offers a comprehensive product range for all kind of lighting applications needed in the automotive, consumer, communications and industrial market segments. With extensive industry experience and relentless pursuit of achieving the highest quality combined with a state-of-art manufacturing, research and testing capabilities, YAHAM has become a trusted and reliable brand across the globe.

The new GeoBulb LED light bulb introduced by the YAHAM Company comes in three color spectrums: cool, soft and warm. It uses 7.5W to provide as much light as a 60-watt incandescent light bulb, and has a typical lifespan of 30,000 hours -- or 10 years. The bulb can reduce worldwide energy use by 10 percent, cutting energy bills in half over the next 10 years, according to Robert C. Crane, President of the company.It's the best light bulb in the world. It's the most efficient and the longest-lasting,” said Crane.It has taken three years for the company to develop this energy-saving LED bulb. The YAHAM Company hopes to encourage other companies through the release of this new product to follow up and develop more energy-saving products.


adoption of LEDs as a viable mainstream and green technology

In the corridors and halls, the Decostar 51 Energy Saver 20W displays its strengths in recessed ceiling downlights. While it cuts the energy consumption by more than 40% compared to conventional halogen lamps, its level of brightness and aesthetics remain constant due to the special IRC infrared coating developed by OSRAM. It reflects the heat emitted back to the coil, thus requiring less energy to reach its full operating temperature.Further savings potential results from the use of Lumilux T5 HE fluorescent led high bay light on board. With a tube diameter of just 16mm, they are considerably more compact than previous standard lamps at 26mm and thus allow the design and use of space-saving luminaires.

The Celebrity Solstice has now become a shining example of energy efficiency and sustainability. Four other ships in the Solstice class are to be provided with the energy-saving light. Meyer Werft concluded a partnership agreement with OSRAM that is designed to increase the use of energy-saving lighting solutions. Bernard Meyer, CEO of Meyer Werft indicated that OSRAM is the ideal partner in lighting issues for them. Not only can its innovative lighting solutions be customized to meet their exact requirements, they also significantly improve the energy balance of their ships.LED market will experience robust growth, over the next five years, fueled by increasingly more-powerful and energy-efficient offerings that will help businesses and consumers lower their Total Cost of Ownership (TCO), accelerate Return on Investment (ROI) and be more environmentally friendly, according to a recent report.It’s known that LEDs have powerful and vocal proponents among local, state and federal governments, commercial industries and private citizens. These groups all are encouraging widespread acceptance and adoption of LEDs as a viable mainstream and green technology.

The report forecasts the overall SSL market will achieve worldwide revenues topping $33 billion by 2013. The illumination segment of the LED market will light the way with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of nearly 22% in the 2009-2013 timeframe. The display portion of the market also will shine brightly, achieving a five-year CAGR of over 14% as cities worldwide shift their streetlights to these more energy-efficient and ecologically friendly solutions.A number of trends have intersected to make this one of the most dynamic periods in the history of LEDs. They include bifurcation of the market between commoditized consumer LEDs and higher-end, leading-edge applications; transition of applications from incandescent to led high bay light; standardization and green initiatives; consolidation within the industry; the emergence of new niche illumination applications, and new markets for mature applications.

The LED lighting fixture industry in penetrating

As the LED lighting market grows beyond single color and color-changing applications into general illumination applications such as residential, commercial and off-grid applications, and ultimately into outdoor area applications, it is forecast to exceed $5 billion in 2012, corresponding to a compound annual growth rate of 28% from 2008 to 2012, according to a recent report.The report notes this will be only the beginning for the ultimate replacement of conventional light sources, including high-efficiency fluorescent and HID fixtures. However, many challenges face the led high bay light industry to accomplish that goals. The report offers a detailed assessment of the market drivers and challenges faced by the LED lighting fixture industry in penetrating the general illumination market. It provides application analyses and forecasts for nine lighting market segments through 2012.

Through 2007, LED lighting applications included niche markets such as exit signs, architectural lighting, accent and decorative lighting, and entertainment lighting, many of which used red, green, and blue LEDs. However, white LED fixtures have begun to capture a strong market position in selected applications such as consumer portable lighting and solar landscape lighting, and more recently have begun to be used on a limited basis in applications such as retail display lighting, commercial and industrial lighting, and outdoor area lighting.In 2008, white LED fixtures accounted for just over 50% of the total LED lighting fixture market. The penetration of white LED lighting fixtures into general illumination applications will accelerate when such fixtures offer quantifiable energy and cost savings relative to the use of conventional light sources.

In recent years, LED technology has made impressive performance gains, which in turn have improved the efficacy of led high bay light lighting fixtures. In the forecast period 2008-2012, white LED fixtures will make gains in market share as the best commercially available high-performance white LEDs move beyond luminous efficacies of 100 l/W.Further improvements in designing fixtures that can optimize LED operation are expected to drive the growth in LED lighting fixture market. Both recessionary pressures and mass manufacturing will further reduce the cost.

LED which is running at a temperature

The RCD series have two independent dimming inputs: a PWM control that allows simple interfacing with microprocessors and digital controllers and an analogue voltage input that is suitable for lighting controllers or rheostat dimmers. Both dimming inputs are linear and the dimming range covers 0%-100%. The PWM input can also be used to shut down the converter to draw only 200μA from the supply.Incorporated in 1975 led high bay light Electronic GmbH originally was a supplier for high precision metal- film- resistors and- networks, becoming a pioneer for miniature DC/DC-converters in the mid 1980’s. Today RECOM is a leading supplier of converters in the power range from 0.25 Watt to 60 Watt and above. Their core focus- development & design, production and marketing span three continents - America, Europe and Asia, thereby ensuring close proximity to the customer base worldwide.

The Energy Star guideline for lumen maintenance requires that after actually running for 6,000 hours, an LED which is running at a temperature that is equivalent to what it would be in a luminaire, must maintains 91.8% of its brightness, or 94.1% of its brightness for outdoor commercial or residential settings. However, after an actual test of 6,000 hours for Luxeon Rebel LEDs running at 350 mA at 55 degrees Celsius, the LEDs maintained 99% of their lumen output.

The results reinforce the superior lumen maintenance performance that has been a hallmark of Luxeon LEDs since they were introduced in 2000, They reflect the ability of the materials used to build Luxeon LEDs — including those used in the Epitaxial process, the phosphors, and the lens and packaging materials — to withstand the rigors of use and the elements to which they might be exposed under a variety of conditions without degrading the led high bay light output too rapidly.Neo Neon’s LED Streetlights in Sweden were firstly installed in Kjellbergsgatan, J?nk?ping Municipality, and have now been in use for two years. The reaction of the public and the Municipality has been very positive. Because of many successful projects completed by RBIecolight, Neo-Neon now has many projects which they are evaluating with clients in a number of different countries.

the illuminated floor is a branded architectural application

The SSL2101 also offers non-isolated and isolated solutions in one chip. It has an additional input that can be used to detect demagnetization of the inductive element, ensuring full utilization of the magnetic material and preventing hard switching of the current. The device has in-built circuitry to reduce capacitive switch-on losses and optimize valley switching efficiencies therefore making the SSL2101 an effective power converter at low power levels. The SSL2101 uses on-time mode control and frequency control to control the LED brightness. This combined effect of both frequency variation and on-time control results in a dimming curve similar to that of an incandescent lamp. The usage of both control methods also enables the designer to reduce peak current, helping in the reduction of audible transformer or inductor noise.

The IC offers a reliable and safe thermal solution via a thermal enhanced package with a built-in Over Temperature Protection (OTP).

offering customers a broad range of pricing options from name brand

Manager of Dialight’s Optical Design Group, calculates the bottom line benefits for SafeSite end users like Rio Tinto and Valero: “Making a one-to-one comparison between a 100W SafeSite 250 Series fixture and a 250W HPS fixture in use 24/7, we calculate that over a year a typical plant with 1,000 retro-fitted Series 250 fixtures can save US$164,000 on energy at today’s prices.But it’s actually better than that,” he adds. “These T4 and T5 rated led high bay light don’t require a warm-up period and can be operated as ‘instant-on’, reaching full light intensity in a fraction of a second, so the plant could save a lot more by powering down the lights when not needed or using motion control to avoid running them 24/7. On top of that they’d have the added benefit of SafeSite’s 5-year warranty and that means zero maintenance and more cost reduction.

Jameco Electronics has published its electronics components catalog for more than 35 years, offering customers a broad range of pricing options from name brand, house brand and manufacturer overrun inventory.

The new tool addresses the requirements of the “Chromaticity and Spatial Uniformity” test in the yahamlighting specification for led high bay light that requires the beam of light to appear the same color to the human eye, regardless of which area of the beam the viewer looks at or where they are at in relation to the light source.To show compliance with these requirements, the lighting manufacturer must have their product tested by an independent laboratory. The lab tests will produce a data set showing the color of the light output under a wide variety of conditions. In many cases, the lighting manufacturer must undergo a difficult and time-consuming process to analyze the data set and perform complex calculations to demonstrate or determine compliance.

the LED current for best luminosity

It not only can maximize light output and distribution, but can prevente harmful glare and reflections, the company says this ring light can be used for a wide variety of inspection, assembly, and rework applications. Its pure-white LED light makes it well-suited for inspecting circuit boards, surface cracks and defects, welds, solder joints, flux residues, and hairline stress cracks.It employs 80 high-output led high bay light that draw only 18 W of energy and produce up to 5800 footcandles of illuminance at a working distance of 4.5”. The LEDs are distributed among two concentric rings of lights, each containing 40 LEDs, and are controlled using eight quadrant switches. A color temperature of 6000 K, combined with dimming to 15% output, enables the ring light to be used with digital equipment, such as Luxo’s System 373 trinocular microscopes. What’s more, the ring light’s lamp life of 50,000 hours makes it an energy-efficient replacement for conventional 150-W fiber-optic illuminators.

 The former monitors the in-situ temperature on each LED and independently optimizes the LED current for best luminosity vs. temperature performance. The latter ensures a low drop out voltage on each LED channel of typically 25mV across the full operating current range. To minimize standby current, the LDS8160 also features an additional low-power standby mode, where the supply voltage of the device is switched to 1.8V. The LDS8160 is controlled through a high-speed I2C interface. Targeted at mobile backlighting applications, the LDS8160 supports up to six white LEDs or up to two RGB LEDs, with a maximum current of 25mA per channel.

Mobile phones have evolved from voice-centric devices to multi-media platforms. Users now expect excellent outdoor display readability, which is a challenge given the current required to drive the led high bay light unit to satisfactory display contrast and color saturation. One solution to this problem is to utilize RGB diodes in the backlight unit. These diodes require temperature compensation in order to keep their white color coordinates constant, a problem that the LDS8160 is designed to solve.

it is extremely difficult to bond the two metals

Upon completion of the LED Lighting Institute, participants will earn three continuing education units and will receive a Continuing Education Certificate in LED lighting technology.The LED Lighting Institute has gained notable support from sponsors who see the benefit of LED lighting education. The main sponsor is the Alliance for Solid-State Illumination Systems and Technologies (ASSIST), a collaboration of researchers, manufacturers, and government organizations designed to identify and reduce major technical hurdles and help LED technology gain widespread use in lighting applications. led high bay light sponsors include Bridgelux.

After several years of foundering holiday sales for energy-efficient LED lighting, LED manufacturers and retailers reported sales that were surprisingly brisk even during an economic downturn.Light-bulb maker Osram Sylvania said it doubled its LED sales since last year to between 15 million and 20 million LED units. LEDs can be three times more expensive than conventional incandescent lights, but they use 90 percent less energy, produce less heat and last longer. Some consumers calculate that an average string of LED lights saves enough energy to pay for itself in as little as a year.

The company says the melting point of copper is 1083C; however, the melting point of aluminum is 550C. Therefore, it is extremely difficult to bond the two metals. Without excellent bonding interface of copper and aluminum, the heat can't spread from copper slug into aluminum smoothly. Therefore, the heat of LED chip accumulates within copper. Finally, LED chip fails because of overheat.Besides, Microsolar are also developing 200W LED module for street lamp. With excellent thermal spreading by Copper-Aluminum bonding, the 200 pieces of LED chips can provide over 14000 lm. In the near future, we can see more led high bay light than traditional street Lamps.
