LED light sculpture style clouds

Gently I go, as I gently waving to me gently, unless the clouds away to the west - "Cambridge" and when the poet Xu popular classic song writing of modern poetry, American sculptor Alexander Calder created with the charm of many of the same dynamic sculpture, the natural flow through the air and watch the show who's playing with different forms, so that every viewer feel the sharp air flow, the flow of time and space conversion. Molo from the designer's creative inspiration is cloud chandelier from the famous sculptor, cloud lights every single unit, as an individual to expand narrow, and fluttering in the wind, somewhat similar to safety light have introduced home soft changing RGB LED light lantern light, the use of new flexible models and materials to create shapes such as clouds floating lights, central light with LED spotlight source temperature is lower and more energy efficient. Each hanging light clouds floating up, the horizon distance as the clouds drifted home, and Chinese designers Zhao Liping clouds LED floor lamp also gives a warm and elegant feeling.

Need a better life a better light, the RGB LED light to bring the good feeling, unlike ordinary light, as feather-like dense shade, wrapped around the order in which the LED bulbs to light the elegant structure carved out the form, gather up from the slightest gap in the natural light to show it. With the expansion and contraction as well as air circulation, to maintain different forms of feather close, light penetration angle and depth of color will change accordingly. This is needed quietly enjoy the lights, gathered in one soft light, the light slowly flow under the shadow of the gate, such as the flower of light, light becomes a bird-like life. When the mood, the toggle streamlined curtains, light leaks get to feel more bright. Three-dimensional texture bump the LED floor lamp paper shade

Chicago starts replacing lights

Conversion to sodium vapor lights on Chicago’s residential streets started in 1974, at a cost of $10 million, and followed up with another $10 million program that converted streetlights on major thoroughfares to sodium vapor lights. In all, the city converted almost 173,000 lights to sodium vapor between 1974 and about 1977.

But while they drew some praise for driving the shadows from city streets, the orange lights always have had their critics. Tribune architecture critic Paul Gapp called the lights “a city-wide orange abomination,” and the local chapter of the American Institute of Architects and others crusaded against them, to no avail.

Since the large-scale adoption of sodium vapor lights in the United States and elsewhere, studies have been done showing that they can hamper police identification of suspects because they decrease people’s ability to tell one color from another, because they make everything look orange at night.

The city estimated in 1973 that converting to sodium vapor lights throughout the city would save about $125,000 a year in electricity and maintenance costs -- or about $635,000 in today’s dollars -- by converting about half its 182,500 lights to sodium vapor. Adjusted for inflation, that’s almost exactly how much the city hopes to save by converting just 16,000 lights this year.

The change also is estimated to decrease carbon dioxide emissions by about 15,000 metric tons a year, according to the Transportation Department.




Lamps Develops 9W LED Down Light

The Neptune LED down light, developed by the company, features an innovative design. It provides a lighting output of 310 lm for 50000 hours from the 9W LEDs. As a standard feature, the LEDs generate 3000k white light constantly and also has an optional feature of generating 6000k natural white light.

Ace Lamps has created a sophisticated design by incorporating a recessed part with a reflective panel, offering a honeycomb effect, along the interior lip that enables the light to project at a beam angle of 1200. This light angle and the frosted glass facia make the LEDs suitable for several lighting applications. The LEDs are also suitable for applications that require a little more diffused light.

The Neptune LED down light is available with an IP44 rating and the included driver has an IP65 rating. The superior quality heat sink at the back-side of the device makes sure that the produced heat is distributed efficiently and effectively without affecting the total performance or size.

Even though it is not possible to dim the light produced by Neptune, Ace Lamps are trying to develop a dimmable type before this year end. Ace Lamps’s Southampton-based offices are constantly expanding their products with the online lighting catalogue of more than 4500 different varieties of interior and exterior lighting products.
