sharp introduces solar powered LED lamps with lenses

sharp LED solar powered outdoor lighting lamps
sharp corporation has developed a new line of ten LED based outdoor lighting products
including four solar-powered LED lights that combine solar panels with newly
developed high-intensity, long-life LED's. there are two models of LED security
(crime deterrence) lights and four led lighting fixtures. these solar-powered led lights
provide exterior illumination while emitting no co2 whatsoever.
features of the lamps are its structure. composed of convex lenses stacked on concave
lenses, the lens unit mounted on the led chip of the new lamps serves to illuminate
a wider area of a street. the concave lens has a function to horizontally widen the light
(in the direction parallel to the street) while the convex lens focuses the light so that
it intensively illuminates a certain area.

since october 2005, sharp has been working to reduce the negative environmental impact
of outdoor lighting by deploying these lights around schools, public parks, and commercial
establishments. the four solar-powered LED lights feature newly developed leds with 30%
higher luminous efficiency and a newly developed led lens designed to spread this light
over a broad area. as a result, they achieve brightness at one of the industry’s highest
levels and can flood a wide space with light. this level of brightness also significantly
lengthens the installation interval to 32 m and reduces the number of units that must be
installed to meet class b recommended standards for crime deterrence lighting.

switch LED light bulbs
featuring liquid cooling technology, the bulbs are available in 100, 75, 60 and 40 watt equivalents to offer the light quality of incandescents, but each one lasts 25 times as long and is 80% more energy efficient.
