Laser Devices, Inc.'s high intensity LED is designed for use with its OPERATOR, OPERATIVE and LAS/TAC 2 tactical lights, and BLAST 2 laser/tactical light combo. Traditional filament-based lamps can ...

Originally born all the way back in Australia, ARB 4x4 Accessories has an official and long-running presence on the North American continent. This year it made a splash with its Ford-approved take on ...

LED lights have taken over modern homes and workplaces. They're energy efficient, affordable, and marketed as the future of lighting technology. Yet, despite these benefits, emerging research is ...

I wasn't sure the price was correct. Normally when I walk through Lowes, I check the price of LED bulbs. It seems they have always been between 11 and 15 dollars for the kind that would screw into a ...

The U.S. Department of Energy recently awarded $11.5 million to install light emitting diode lighting in parks, police stations, an airport runway, baseball fields and city buildings to promote energy ...

Jay Holben During one of my recent lectures, there was a great deal of confusion about how to adjust light intensity and when does light quality and/or color change when altering the intensity.

If people are sleepless in Seattle, it may not be only because they have broken hearts. The American Medical Association issued a warning in June that high-intensity LED streetlights — such as those ...

A LED light pipe is an optical fiber or a solid transparent plastic rod for transmitting light from an LED mounted on a printed circuit board (PCB) to the user interface. Light pipes transmit up to 80 ...

This application note shows how to make use of the Maxim MAX6958/9 IC’s for driving LED’s and controlling their intensity. The LED’s can be made to blink or light up brighter than other LED’s. To view ...
