Special places need special lighting: Inventronics supplies cutting-edge LED technology for energy-saving floodlight luminaires (more…)
What is CRI (Colour Rendering Index)?
Colour rendering index (CRI) is one method of measuring the distinctive attributes of a light source. It has been around since 1937 and is often misunderstood as a metric of light colour output quality. When really...
LED (Light Emitting Diodes) Basics
Within the last decade, LEDs (light emitting diodes) have become a commonplace technology. They provide ample opportunity for innovative lighting design and offer a wider range of possibilities than traditional lighting technologies such as incandescent bulbs....
LED Secondary Optics: All you need to know
An LED’s primary optic only tends to emit directional light at 120°, but this is not suitable for all applications, and therefore can cause the LED light to lack intensity over distance. To get an LED...
Possibilities with Inventronics and DALI technology
DALI is a common industry term in LED lighting and power controls, and a recognised global standard (IEC 62386) for lighting control. It stands for Digital Addressable Lighting Interface and refers to a 2-way communication system...
Surge Protection Devices with Inventronics
Surge protection devices (SPDs) work to safeguard your electronics by protecting them against sudden and unwanted power surges. For many electronic devices, even a tiny spike in voltage can damage them and become a safety hazard. ...
Lenses versus reflectors
LED optics are a terrific way to direct, diffuse or intensify light. They are readily available in a wide array of sizes, shapes, and materials. This variety of choice means that lenses are versatile and useful...
ILS: Creative fun with LED pixels
Intelligent LED Pixels are a cost-effective and creative way to play with lighting design. Commonly used for DYI maker projects to create some cool effects in applications like gaming peripherals, ambient TV backlighting, under-counter lighting, and...
What does IP rating really mean?
IP rating is something commonly encountered when looking at finished lighting products. For some applications it is a vital to know and acquiring a light fitting with the correct rating is paramount. (more…)
Thermal considerations for LEDs
LEDs convert electrical power into light output. During this process, heat is released as a byproduct. The primary cause of LED failure is often poor thermal management. Thus, any application utilising LEDs will need to consider...
