Cooler-running and using less energy than dichroic and halogen downlighters — EcoLEDLighting’s LED downlighters.
EcoLEDLighting has developed a range of downlights using LEDs as the light source. The MR16 range is intended to replace dichroic and halogen units. Their light output is comparable to existing technology, but they consume 80% less energy and are typically 85% cooler. LEDs have a life of up to 100 000 h and are available in a range of colours. Some versions can be dimmers and are available in four different beam angles.
