Premier Lighting Case Study: LED Tape Light
|
|
Goal:
The primary goal of this project was to replace the existing compact fluorescent plug-in lamps (CFL) with LED for energy savings. Another major factor was that replacing the CFL ballasts was a difficult and costly task, and one the client hoped to forego with an LED installation.
Assessment:
The front lobby rotunda had a large circle with cove lighting: one on the main floor and one on the level below. The diameter of each circle was approximately 120' and contained 120 individual 18 watt CFL lamps with one ballast for each two lamps. As mentioned it was costly to maintain as changing the bulbs and especially the ballasts was a difficult task. In addition, the sockets had gotten brittle over time so that was another potential failure point going forward.

This is especially true of the T8 lamps, which use about 40% less energy than the older, now phased-out T12 lamps. That being said, now there is a new player in the commercial lighting arena that promises even better efficiency: the linear LED replacement (T8 LED).
Does the T8 LED truly have what it takes to make it worth swapping out your tried-and-true LFLs? To help you decide, take a look at some of the benefits of T8 LEDs:
Mercury Free - Dimmable - Directional Lighting - Works Well with Controls - Better Efficiency - Quality Light - Lifespan - Shatterproof
If you find that you're leaning towards retrofitting your linear fluorescents with T8 LEDs, you have several different options...
