Tivoli Boosts Design Opportunities with Its New Ground Breaking Elite Series TivoTape™
Tivoli Boosts Design Opportunities with Its New Ground Breaking Elite Series TivoTape™ Without a doubt, LED Tape Light has become a staple in most Lighting Designers creative palette’s. However, there have been some limitations which have challenged that creativity, and Tivoli Lighting has continued to work hard solving those challenges. In regards to Low Voltage LED Tape Light, there is a distinct difference between maximum load lengths to maintain Class II listed status and the maximum run lengths before experiencing significant voltage drop, which will result in lumen loss. Tivoli has solved that with the design of our proprietary Zero Drop Elite TivoTape™. Most LED Tape uses from 1-3 oz of copper for the traces. TivoTape™ Elite embodies 4oz copper traces. Read more »

Linnea – A Fabulous Linear Lighting Solution from LEDiL - the People that Make Light Right
Linnea – A Fabulous Linear Lighting Solution from LEDiL - the People that Make Light Right Anyone who has spent countless hours in artificially lit indoor environments knows how tiring on the eyes it can eventually become. Many of you reading this will know exactly what we’re talking about. Yes, fluorescent lighting. But hey, that’s so 1980s and 90s, isn’t it? Well, not really. It seems there are many indoor spaces that are still lit with these often flickering, unevenly lit outdated tubes of the past. The era of oil and candlelight have long gone but those pesky fluorescent light tubes remain and some might even think they are still relevant. Well, we’re here to tell you they’re not. Thanks to LEDs and some innovative optic design by our in-house team we have something better – much better.  Read more »

BTS256-EF Measures New Flicker Metrics for Compliance with Ecodesign Directive
BTS256-EF Measures New Flicker Metrics for Compliance with Ecodesign Directive The European Commission´s proposed regulation of lighting under the Ecodesign Directive will establish mandatory product performance and quality requirements on all lighting products. This new EU directive will include strict requirements for flicker and stroboscopic effect, collectively referred to as temporal light artefacts (TLA). Simple measures such as flicker index and modulation depth will not be adequate as they do not distinguish the possible TLA effects and do not account for the effect of frequency-dependent sensitivity or the wave shape of light output. The BTS256-EF spectral light and flicker meter measures the specific metrics required by the regulation, PstLM and SVM. Read more »
