GU24

American Illumination, Inc.®, a specialist in designing and creating one-of-a-kind LED light engines, modules and lamps has unveiled their LED GU24 direct replacement lamp at Lightfair 2013. Part of the company’s new Verde Retrofit Series, this new model is one of the few GU24 direct replacement light bulbs available, and is the only one compatible with the GU24 locking ring for simple transitions from CFL to LED.

"With the Verde Retrofit lamps, we wanted to push energy savings even further," said Gina Lee, Marketing Director for American Illumination. "CFL’s are already a low-cost, low-energy solution available to the public, but these sources tend to produce a harsh quality of light and of course present drawbacks such as mercury content and the risk of broken glass. With the GU24 bulb we wanted to use our expertise in cutting edge LED engine design by providing a direct replacement lamp that is easy to install in existing applications and provide an excellent solution for lighting designers and OEM’s tapping into the GU24 model for fixture designs."

The Verde GU24 bulb replaces the 13W CFL, consuming only 8.5W of total power and emitting over 700 lumens (warm white) for an 80+ lumens per watt efficacy. This replacement bulb provides considerable light output for residential, hospitality, healthcare, and commercial applications, such as decorative pendants, chandeliers, vanity lights and various indoor fixtures such as ceiling fans and desk lamps.
