LED Edge-Lit Components Branch Out

The company’s latest range of LED-based edge-lit illumination solutions expands its offerings beyond LCDs, keyboards, and keypads and into areas of egress lighting and general illumination. The edge-lighting solutions exploit high-efficiency LEDs that focus light into a high-performance backlight or light guide. The LEDs are located on the edge of the light guide to provide better optical control for color and uniformity, use fewer LEDs,  and offer better repeatability in the thinnest possible lighting solution. Pricing for GLT edge-lit backlights varies according to size, application, number of LEDs, and quantity. GLOBAL LIGHTING TECHNOLOGIES INC., Brecksville, OH. (866) 922-4584.
