Verbatim has introduced its new LED lamps designed as direct replacements for incandescent light bulbs, halogen lamps and compact fluoresecent lamps in general purpose lighting.
They have a lifetime of up to 35,000 hours as well as provide between 70% and 85% energy savings over conventional types of comparable light output.
Five of the new products are spotlights with GU10 sockets. These operate from a 200-240VAC grid supply. They have power ratings between 4W and 8W and replace conventional lamps rated from 20W to 60W. Colour temperatures range from 2700K warm white to 5300K cool white and the CRI of these lamps is between 75 and 80, depending on the model.
A new MR16 spotlight with a GU5.3 socket operates from 12VAC or DC. The 6.5W lamp can be used to replace 20W conventional types and has a lifetime of 35,000 hours. It offers cools white light at 4200K and has a minimum CRI of 75.
With an E27 (screw type) fitting, Verbatim's new R63 8W spotlight is the most powerful of the new solid state LED lamps. It replaces conventional lamps rated at 60W, providing energy savings of over 80%. All Verbatim LED lamps are based on phosphor coatings applied to blue LEDs.
