_ Acclaim Lighting shows first Quad RGBW flexible LED strip product
June 30, 2016
Acclaim Lighting Spectrum RGBW
Flex Spectrum is a new RGBW flexible LED strip, available in 5 meter lengths. As opposed to the traditional RGB+W flexible LED product with separate and alternating RGB and white LEDs, manufacturer Acclaim Lighting now has a wonderful solution with Quad RGBW LEDs. The advantage is clear: since the separate white LED has gone and all colors are mixed inside one quad color LED diode, more uniform color mixing and even light dispersion is the result. Spectrum is designed to give you a wide range of colors to choose from in applications where both color and dedicated white are required. By mixing blue with 3000K inside the quad color diode, you get a white range from 3000K-7000K, while maintaining a CRI of 80 or better. Acclaim Lighting's Flex Spectrum is available in Exterior (IP68) and Interior (IP20) versions.

_ Caret Design Light product
January 31, 2016
Caret Globe Light
A few weeks ago, 4Stage.net ran across an interesting light bulb: Caret Design Light delivers a particularly warm light (2300K extra warm white) and is an ideal retrofit solution for the vintage E27 incandescent light bulbs. It is particularly suited for use in chandeliers and design fixtures, where the lamp is visible at all times. Even a simple but decorative brass socket and rayon covered connection cord do the Caret Design Light fully justice. The Caret Design Light is available in Globe and 'Squirrel Cage' shape and has great dimming characteristics, helping to create the desired atmosphere in restaurants, lounges or residential spaces. It is a real eye catcher!
