Using just 11 watts of power while putting out over 830 lumens, the latest generation of Philips’ 60 watt A-19 LED bulb uses 10 percent less energy than its 12.5 watt predecessor, while increasing brightness by nearly 5 percent. The new lamp has an innovative new design that takes advantage of Philips AirFlux technology, a new airflow cooling system that eliminates the traditional distracting heat sink fins needed for thermal management of LED bulbs. Philips will be unveiling the new bulb at The Home Depot store on 59th Street in Manhattan on December 4th – 5th and at the 23rd Street store on December 5th-6th, offering consumers a $5 savings and the opportunity to learn more about LED lighting technology for the home.
Designed to exceed Energy Star specifications, the bulb will reduce energy consumption by 85 percent, last 25 times longer and save an estimated $134.00 in electricity costs during its lifespan, as compared to the traditional 60-watt incandescent. This LED bulb will also offer consumers two different color temperatures, Soft White and Daylight, while the new sleek white shape makes it ideal for open fixtures and sheer shades.
The new Philips A-19 LED bulb offers enhanced dimming capabilities, dimming down to 2 percent of power, while working with a broader range of dimmers. This further simplifies use and allows consumers to enjoy an effective, low energy solution for lighting in the home. For business users, particularly those within the hospitality sector, the new lamp will provide instant plug-in savings, through reduced energy and maintenance costs, in comparison with traditional bulbs.
“We continue to push the boundaries of LED technology to improve the performance of our products, enhancing their light quality, while improving their energy-efficiency,” said Ed Crawford, general manager of Philips Lighting. “This latest generation of our LED bulb eliminates the tell-tale heat syncs of LED technology enabling a classic design, while reducing energy consumption by 10 percent offering more light output.”

Rookie USA chose LED lighting for its first store for many reasons
Rookie USA chose LED lighting for its first store for many reasons: Long-term cost efficiency, less frequent lamp replacement, less heat emission resulting in less HVAC expenditure, and the design. “The design of the luminaires for general lighting was very important to us, because the space is an open plan. Additionally, the luminaries had to be functional but also unique. Phoster Industries was the vendor that could provide everything we were looking for,” Rookie explained.
Thanks to its tremendous energy efficiency over standard incandescent lamps, the LED solution will help to reduce annual energy costs by up to 85 percent. The Phoster lamps have a rated lamp life of about 50,000 hours, which almost makes lamp replacement unnecessary, another factor contributing to cutting costs. “By electing to use LEDs for the lighting at its new store, Rookie USA has made a pioneering move in terms of the many advantages of these tiny diodes,” says Douglas Mendelman, Director of Business Development at Phoster Industries. “The combination of the Golden Dragon Plus LED high bay light from Osram and our luminaire systems creates a pleasant atmosphere inside the new store, makes products look their best and lowers energy and maintenace costs at the same time.” Osram Opto Semiconductors and Phoster Industries have already collaborated successfully in the field of store lighting. The joint lighting solution therefore was Rookie USA’s first choice when it came to putting its products in the best possible light.
As part of a pilot study by the Public Works Commission, the city-owned utility plans to convert about 300 conventional streetlights to LED bulbs, which last three times as long and use about half the electricity.
The LED, or light-emitting diode, technology has become increasingly common in everything from traffic signals to flat-screen TVs. Big cities such as Los Angeles and Seattle are aggressively switching their public lighting over to LED fixtures to brighten streets and save money in the long run.

the dynamic projector lighting creates an irregular dynamic artistic lighting on the wall in the evenings
A particular highlight in the showroom is the “art wall”. This semi-transparent concrete wall can be highlighted in different ways with colour-changing LED light. RGB LED modules are used for backlighting the wall LED linear high bay light. Projectors with a rotating prisma are used to illuminate the wall from the front. These are also equipped with RGBA LED technology. The backlighting in combination with the dynamic projector lighting creates an irregular dynamic artistic lighting on the wall in the evenings.
Wennerstrm has also brought a little sky into the showroom as a further demonstration piece. A rectangular ceiling cut-out with an opaque cover, made to look like a skylight, is used to demonstrate the positive effect of tunable white light in a room without daylight. The tunable white light effect enables the entire white light spectrum from cold white through neutral white to warm white to be produced by a luminaire. It can be used, for example, to simulate changes in natural light throughout the day.
The new design for the Wennerstr?m offices will benefit not only the customers of this lighting distributor but also its employees. The lighting concept for the offices combines bright friendly background lighting from recessed ceiling downlights with task lighting from pendant luminaires. The LED high bay light fluorescent lamps in these pendant luminaires are switched and dimmed under daylight and presence control. The necessary input values are provided by SMART sensor. Lamp operation is managed by PCA EXCEL one4all digital dimmable control gear with xitec II technology. The uplight in the pendant luminaries is controlled by DALI and the downlight can both be manually adjusted via remote control and by DALI. This all together makes the lighting control very flexible, smart and efficient.

Which are lit using a new generation of highly efficient solar powered LED lighting
Amsterdam, The Netherlands- Royal Philips Electronics and the YAHAM today announced a three year partnership, which will be built around the creation of 90 so called solar ‘light centers’ across the LED linear high bay light American continents. Light centers are areas of approx 1000m2, or the size of a small soccer pitch, which are lit using a new generation of highly efficient solar powered LED lighting.
The idea is to create areas of light for rural communities which live without electricity thus effectively ‘extending the day’ and creating numerous opportunities for social, sporting and economic activities in the evening. These new light centers will enable and support the YAHAM’s WorldCoaches program in Africa and South America. The WorldCoaches program trains football coaches in using football for social development, focusing on communities in developing countries.
Bert van Oostveen, General Secretary YAHAM, is very pleased with the new partnership. “Since the start of WorldCoaches in 2009, the YAHAM has trained over 3.800 coaches in more than fifteen countries in Asia, Africa and South America. The Philips Light Centers will enable the training of even more coaches. This new partnership of Philips and YAHAM emphasizes the innovative power of these two Dutch brands and is a great addition to our WorldCoaches program.”
“By teaming up, Philips and the LED high bay light join efforts in helping develop rural communities in Africa and South America’ said Ronald de Jong Chief Market leader and member of the Philips executive committee. ‘Together we now have a really exciting opportunity to demonstrate the power of football and technical innovation to the world. We consider this a great proof point of Philips providing locally relevant solutions in growth markets and improving peoples lives”.
