From Theory to Application: Understanding and Implementing Color Temperature and CRI in Lighting Design
Maintaining proper lighting levels, color temperature, and Color Rendering Index (CRI) is crucial for various applications. Color temperature affects the ambiance, while CRI determines color accuracy. LEDs offer flexibility in color temperature, have a high CRI, produce less heat, and are energy-efficient compared to incandescent lamps.

What Really Goes into Manufacturing Hazardous Location Fixtures
Most electricians and contractors are familiar with the concept of
hazardous locations – areas where a fire or explosion could occur
through the presence of flammable vapors or gases, combustible dust or
easily ignitable fibers or flyings.

The Intrinsic Value of Decorative Lighting in Commercial Spaces
Recently, my wife and I had the “pleasure” of visiting a relatively new
hospital complex. For almost a year, I watched the 5-story edifice being
built as I traveled up and down Highway 49 in Northwest Arkansas.

Protective Coatings Bring Multiple Benefits to LEDs
Tube lamps have been a go-to for decades and, while the latest LED
fixtures often incorporate integrated lighting elements – in other
words, no separate lamps – millions of troffer fixtures initially
designed for fluorescent technology are still in service around the
globe.

Shedding Some Light on Full-Spectrum LEDs
As someone who’s tracked LED lighting since its early days as a
commercially available technology, my own experience with the products
has evolved. I live in an older house with overhead lighting only in the
kitchen and bathrooms, so this has mostly meant experimenting with LED
bulbs (or “lamps,” in lighting designer lingo) in the 14 or 15 table
fixtures scattered around my home.

LED Lamps – Energy Saving Replacements
I’ll make no bones about it. LEDs are the light of my life. Okay, maybe
that’s going just a bit far … but not much. If you want to find an
incandescent or fluorescent lamp in my house, you’re going to have to
look hard. I think I may have a few C7s left to replace. But only
because they’re hard to get to.
