Single-Chip LED Emits 250 Lumens

Assuming position as the brightest single-chip LED on the market, the KLC8 series delivers 250 lumens at a drive current of 1A. It also delivers an impressive luminous efficacy of 100 lumens/W at 350 mA, and its lifespan exceeds 50,000 hours. The KLC8 operates within a wide range of drive currents, 0A to 1A, which makes it a viable candidate for energy saving illumination. The LED claims higher efficacy values than conventional fluorescent and incandescent lamps and is suitable for use in general illumination, decorative lighting, street lighting, LCD displays, and projectors. Available in white and warm white, the LEDs are sealed in tape-and-reel packaging and conform to lead-free, IR-reflow process requirements. EDISON OPTO CORP., Taipei, Taiwan. 886-2-82276996.
