 05/30/2006 - iLight Technologies, Inc., a leader and innovator in the LED lighting industry, has revealed the next advancement in white LED lighting: the Plexineon White 2X Series, at Lightfair International, North America's largest annual architectural and commercial lighting trade show. This second generation of white light developed by iLight is offered in three Kelvin color temperatures, produces high efficiency white light, and stable and consistent color temperature. Most importantly, Plexineon White 2X has longer lifetimes than other white products on the market due to its unique construction, and is almost twice as bright as the original white series making it perfect for low light level (<20FC) applications. "Now White 2X can be used not only for interior and exterior accent lighting," states iLight's Chairman of the Board, Mark Cleaver, "but also low light level applications such as coves, sconces, curtain wall mullions, steps and stairs, handrails, bollards and more." iLight Technologies has overcome the many issues with producing useful white light that standard industry methods, white LEDs (blue with phosphor) and RGB approaches, still face. White 2X is produced using a patented process which uses standard high intensity blue LEDs and a proprietary diffusing technology which avoids the phosphor degradation issues of standard white LEDs as well as the individual LED degradation issues of the RGB approach. The simplicity of the process results in a robust, cost effective and long-lasting white product. "Color consistency issues continually plague white RGB applications, and phosphors on white LEDs degrade quickly changing color temperature and reducing light output. Our product introduces a whole new direction in white light capabilities. We stay brighter, longer and at a more affordable price," states Cleaver. Due to its durable construction, ease of installation and energy efficiencies, the White 2X Series, as with all Plexineon products, appeals to architectural, entertainment, hospitality, commercial, residential and signage applications.
