LEDiL Extends its Unique FLARE Series with Two Specialty TIR Lenses
LEDiL Extends its Unique FLARE Series with Two Specialty TIR Lenses LEDiL’s standard FLARE optic is now joined by the smaller, FLARE-MINI and the larger FLARE-MAXI lenses. These lenses produce a very wide horizontal beam pattern with tight vertical cutoff, for outstanding performance in emergency lighting and warning beacon applications. While many emergency and beacon applications call for the use of saturated color LEDs such as red or blue, FLARE products can also be used with white LEDs in cove lighting, corridor lighting, wall sconces or in other architectural applications.
