FAQ's

LEDs bring several advantages to the lighting industry, including high efficacy and durability, and, with superior life over other lamp sources, their required maintenance is greatly reduced. This translates into energy savings, maintenance savings, and environmental sustainability. There is also the potential for greater optical control (more controllable source), dimming, instant on/off, and reduced rate of lumen depreciation (potential for long application life).

An LED does not burn out like a standard lamp, so individual diodes do not need to be replaced. Instead, the diodes gradually produce lower output levels over a very long period of time. If one LED fails, it does not produce a complete fixture outage.

All of our products meet FCC part 15 guidelines for radiated and conducted emissions.

No. Unlike incandescent and fluorescent lighting which will fail sooner when switched on and off more often, LED lighting is unaffected by how often it is switched on and off.

There are many different types of lighting, housings, trims and accessories, and lamp types available.

Unlike incandescent and fluorescent light sources, Cree LED Lighting Products produce virtually no light in the Ultraviolet (UV) or Infrared (IR) spectrums.

Color Rendering Index (CRI) is defined as a light sources ability to render color.  The higher the CRI, the better the light source renders every color in the visible spectrum.  To have what is generally considered good color rendering, a source must be >90 CRI.
