Cree introduces 170 lm/W prototype LED light bulb

Cree recently announced that following the successful launch of the 152lm/W concept LED bulb, Cree again broke through the performance benchmark and introduced a 170lm/W prototype LED bulb in less than one year. The innovative technology used in this high-performance 170 lm/W prototype LED light bulb significantly improves light efficiency and lowers the overall cost of the light fixture. This further demonstrates Cree's commitment to accelerating the popularity of LED lighting by reducing initial costs and shortening the payback period. Work hard.

The reason why LED lighting can reach the existing level is due to the performance improvement of all components in the entire lighting system - lighting level LED, optics, driving and thermal management. LED based on Cree's innovative SC technology platform is the key to Cree achieving this industry-leading R&D result. The SC technology platform uses Cree's industry-leading silicon carbide (SiC) technology to demonstrate superior characteristics in LED chip structure and phosphor technology.

Nick Medendorp, vice president of research and development at Cree's corporate lighting, said: "The realization of high-performance Cree new prototype LED light bulbs, each LED design element optimization is important. The new 170lm / W prototype LED light bulb technology used to help achieve higher performance While reducing the cost of LED lighting, Cree will do its utmost to continuously develop new technologies to help reduce energy consumption and create excellent light quality and greater value for customers."

OnSpeX, a third-party independent laboratory, verified that the Cree's new 170lm/W prototype LED bulb has a luminous flux of more than 1250lm and a power consumption of only 7.3W. Prototype bulb with Cree TrueWhite? Technology, color rendering index (CRI) over 90. The traditional 75W incandescent bulb has a luminous flux of only 1100lm and a luminous efficiency of 14.6lm/W.
