Cree, Inc. of DURHAM, N.C., now has XLamp XM-L LEDs available in neutral- and warm-white color temperatures (2600-K to 5000-K CCT). In warm-white (3000-K), XLamp XM-L LEDs provide up to 117 lumens per watt at 350 mA and 108 lumens per watt at 700 mA. The neutral-white (4000-K) XM-L LEDs provide up to 138 lumens per watt at 350 mA, 128 lumens per watt at 700 mA and 84 lumens per watt when driven at 3.0 A.
Unlike competing LED's that use large-footprint packages and diffuse optical sources to deliver hundreds of lumens, XM-L LEDs use a compact footprint and small optical source size allowing manufacturers to control light output and place light exactly where it is required. “Cree is the only LED manufacturer currently delivering production volumes of warm- and neutral-white LEDs at these performance levels,” said Paul Thieken, Cree, director of marketing.

Tech Lighting Wins NGL Award
Tech Lighting, of Chicago, IL captured a winning spot in the accent track lighting category of the third annual Next Generation Luminaires™ (NGL) Solid-State Lighting Design Competition. "With 328 products submitted and 138 products qualified based on documentation, it's an honor to be one of four winners in the accent lighting category," said Joshua Weiss, Vice President of Product Development for Tech Lighting.
NGL judges noted the color quality, adjustability and overall design of the LED head.At 18 watts and 810 net lumens, the head offers a high level of performance. The power supply and heat sink fins all sit within the head resulting in a clean, thoughtful and seamless design.
The NGL competition is sponsored by the U.S. Department of Energy, the Illuminating Engineering Society of North America, and the International Association of Lighting Designers. It helps promote excellence in the design of energy-efficient LED luminaires for general illumination in commercial lighting applications and make it easier for lighting designers and specifiers to find LED lighting products that are worthy of specification. Competition judges evaluate products based on a number of factors relating to suitability and quality, as well as energy-efficiency.

LSG / LPI Team Up To Chase L Prize
Lighting Science Group and Light Prescriptions Innovators have teamed up to develop a highly efficient, high output and low cost 60-watt replacement LED bulb, that they will enter to win the the U.S. Department of Energy's prestigious L Prize competition.
The L Prize, or Bright Tomorrow Lighting Prize, was established by the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007 as a way to promote the development of a highly efficient, high quality LED replacements for the traditional 60-watt light bulb. To be considered for the L Prize a light bulb must work in current sockets, get six times the energy efficiency of an incandescent build (measured in lumen's of light per watt of electricity used), while meeting other high standards for color rendering, life, quality, cost and availability.
"We are confident that our LED bulb developed in partnership with LPI meets or exceeds all of the criteria for the L Prize, making it a strong contender to win the competition, but we also believe that developing this product will further accelerate the transformation of the lighting industry to highly efficient LED technology." said Fred Maxik, founder and chief technology officer of Lighting Science Group. "This LED bulb will help accelerate America's shift away from inefficient, dated lighting products to innovative, high-performance products," said Roberto Alvarez, chief executive officer and president of LPI.
