2D-Lite LED Disk Puts a New Spin On Traditional Bulbs

LED light bulbs have taken on a new dimension of function and style with today's Indiegogo launch of the flat-shaped 2D-Lite™ LED Disk, designed and manufactured by NliteN™ inc.

Despite its flat form factor and illusion of not having threads, NliteN inc's stylish 2D-Light(TM) LED Disks screw into a standard Edison light socket as easily as a conventional incandescent bulb and produce a near-perfect light pattern while delivering the highest lumens per dollar to consumers.

Born of Silicon Valley innovation and scaling, telecom and aerospace ruggedness, and highly-efficient and low-cost automated manufacturing, the 2D-Lite LED Disk delivers innovation, style, functionality, high quality, and reliability – yet at a market-leading price point that's 30 percent lower than most reputable competitors, and more than 60 percent less than the average price of dimmable 60W incandescent-replacement, 800 lumen class, LED light bulbs.


Today's 2D-Lite LED Disk launch, recognizing the 165th birthday of lighting pioneer Lewis Latimer, will represent the moment in history that the vacuum tube packaging of early light bulb inventors, which subsequently defined standard household "bulb" shapes and manufacturing methods, became obsolete. People will find it awkward, now, to refer to LED-optimized, mass automation-assembled, stylish, energy-efficient, "LED Disks" (or "light disks") as "light bulbs".


2D-Lite LED Disk's technology looks brighter, and reduces energy consumption by about 80 percent over the 60W incandescent light bulbs it's meant to replace, and by almost 30 percent over the 14W, mercury (a neurotoxin) -containing, short-lived, non-dimmable CFL bulbs it's meant to displace.


The primary bulb-selection criterion for consumers, a low price, is achieved in 2D-Light LED Disks by a patent-pending and unique flat design, enabling the disks to be manufactured on highly-automated electronics assembly systems. Hand soldering and manual assembly that necessitate low-quality Chinese manufacturing of light bulbs have been eliminated, delivering quality and reliability at the lowest cost and highest lumens/$.


Automated manufacturing is scalable, and benefits greatly from increased volume. This scaling, and the R&D funding NliteN plans to garner via its Indiegogo supporters, will enable the delivery of the next generation 2D-Light series of LED Disks, with the goal of producing a US$6, dimmable, 60W-replacement, light disk in 2015 and a "Light Disk for the World™" at a US$3 price point by 2017. NliteN believes its aggressive goals will enable everyone to be able to afford high quality, energy efficient lighting, improving quality of life everywhere and creating worldwide adoption of this clean, green, energy saving, LED technology.
