Ideal for a broad range of applications within the high-end retail and commercial sectors, the X24 series delivers an impressive 1600 lumens of light output with just a 3-inch aperture.

Solais Lighting, LLC, the leading manufacturer of lightweight, specification-grade LED lamps, was featured in the October 2012 e-report of LD+A Magazine as one of their “5 products to watch”.

The question comes up a lot. Are Solais lamps dimmable? The answer is yes! Of course the next question is what dimmer works best with Solais LED lamps? This is where it gets a little more complicated

As seen in the figure 1 below, white light falls along the Planckian Locus (or black body locus) on the Chromaticity Diagram. This means that depending on where the white light falls along the black body locus, the light can be bluer or yellower than another white light.

One of the things we pride ourselves on at Solais is staying ahead of the curve when it comes to the latest technology. This was true when we came out with the first 1000 lumen replacement lamp to hit the market.

Solais Lighting was featured in Residential Lighting Magazine August 2012 issue under the “Latest in LED” section for its passively-cooled LED lamp technology.

With traditional lamp sources like halogen, fluorescent and metal halide, a selection of lamps (usually somewhere around 100 samples) are burned continuously at a given voltage and position. When 50% of these lamps have ceased to function, then this determines the lamp life for that particular lamp.

What happens to a Solais lamp when it is installed in a situation that causes it to get hotter than intended?

In previous blogs, we have talked about our Luxiance technology which utilizes active cooling to remove heat from our LED system. But what does this really mean to the LED? How does this relate to the LM-79 and LM-80 tests?

Glare is defined as a visual sensation caused by excessive and uncontrolled brightness. It is subjective and sensitivity to glare can vary widely.
