Luminaire Lighting, Vandal Resistant Lighting

I did a demonstration for an engineer friend today and he volunteered to try to damage my wall sconce from Luminaire Lighting.  The lamps broke but the fixture looked fine.  Luminaire has a lifetime warranty against vandalism AND against yellowing of the lens.  Very nice and video and photo evidence is below.

Lighting Layout Calculator

HE Williams Lighting provides a lighting layout calculator on their website.  Here a link and screenshot of the recessed architectural section of lighting.  It is somewhat intuitive, but feel free to call me if you would like to discuss how to best utilize this tool.

Cree Lighting CR24 Troffer

The R9 Value for the 3000K Cree CR24 is 80 which adds to the industry leading CRI of +90.  A link to the energy study is below.



Energy.Gov Study

Per the DOE website,

"A good CRI score does not guarantee good color quality

One problem with the CRI is that it can give fairly high scores to sources that render some saturated object colors very poorly. An example below shows a case of a red-green-blue (RGB) white LED simulation optimized for highest luminous efficacy of radiation (LER, lm/W) at CRI R

a=80. This light would qualify for Energy Star and achieve high luminous efficacy2, but the actual color rendering is very poor. With R9 = -114, skin tones under this light look pale and unhealthy. "

LEED Platinum, Nashville

How about this one... I hear it went smoothly.  No change orders.  She did not get the point for "Daylight & Views", it is pretty dark in there.  She did get a point for "Optimize Energy Performance" though.  Nice job!!

B-K Lighting Earns More Lighting Facts Labels
2012-04-12
The U.S. Department of Energy is giving the 'thumbs up' on 41 new Lighting Facts labels for B-K Lighting solid-state products including the Mini Micro™ Floodlight, Mini Micro™ Pathlight, Mini Micro™ Pendant, Chart Star™ and Yacht Star™.

Each Lighting Facts label summarizes a fixture’s solid-state performance data in five areas — lumens, efficacy, watts, correlated color temperature (CCT), and color rendering index (CRI)- as measured by the industry standard for testing photometric performance, IES LM-79-2008.

Once approved, each registered product is issued a Lighting Facts label.

Just like nutritional labels issued for food products, Lighting Facts labels give lighting professionals and designers direct access to information and facts needed to review performance claims.

Since becoming a partner in 2009, B-K Lighting has registered close to 200 products with the D.O.E. SSL Quality Advocates Program and is ranked as one of the top manufacturers worldwide.
That number will continue to grow as additional products are approved.

Lighting Facts Label information for BKSSL™ approved products is available online at www.bklighting.com and www.bkssl.com.
