Induction Lighting

Induction lighting is a technology to maximize the efficiency of lighting. Ever since Thomas Edison invented the light bulb, the primary lighting technology has been an electrical element that excites molecules so they give off light. Edison's light bulb used an electric current to heat a filament until it glowed. Flourescent lights use electrodes to run a current through a gas to excite it, and in turn generate light.

Induction lighting takes this technology to the next level, eliminate filaments and electrodes. An induction light includes a small coil around the bulb to generate a magnetic field. The field excites the molecules in the bulbs, causing them to emit light. This system eliminates the need for a filament or an electrode. The magnetic field does all the work. The design of induction lights generates the field within the bulb. This ensures the energy of the field is directly transferred to the gas inside the bulb, with little to no loss to the surrounding, creating a highly efficient bulb. Equally important, the focused magnetic field inside the bulb will not interview with electronics outside the bulb.

By using an induction coil to excite the gas in the bulb, the bulb can be made from a single sealed tube of glass. This solves the greatest challenge in creating a long lasting fluorescent bulb - leaks. The seal around the electrodes of a fluorescent bulb is the most likely source of failure. If there is a leak and the gas inside the bulb escapes, the bulb will not work. Induction lights do not have holes in the bulb that need to be sealed. As long as the bulb doesn't break, the gas inside will keep emitting light.

This design offers a major benefit over all other lighting systems. With no gas loss, an induction light can last far longer than other lights. Induction lights are rated to last 100,000 hrs of use and carry a 5 year, no-fail warranty on the fixture PLUS ALL LABOR. This warranty can be offered because induction lights will far out last five years of continuous use.

The exceptional long life of induction lights provides a significant cost savings over other lighting systems, especially for fixtures in hard to access locations. Changing bulbs can be a cost as significant as the bulbs themselves. Using an induction bulb with a rating up to 13 times longer than the rated life of competing technologies means structures using induction bulbs will require far lower maintenance requirements.

Induction lights of a high lumen output with low wattage requirements, proving dramatic energy savings.

Induction lights also offer better light quality than competing technologies, closely mimicking natural light.
