Lunartec 7×3 watt reflection lights pass the test

LED lamps used to feature 12V connection, there are now few. The Lunartec 7x 3 Watt LED spotlight ' cool white ' PAR 30, E27, 230 is the first design that delivers usual light levels.

With the LED lamps it is not yet quite cheating: effective, high-efficiency they are okay.

The power consumption is low, a maximum of 3-6 watts even with almost 100 reflection light in the housing or a power chip. And 3 Watt Input with high efficiency also showed up only a brightness corresponding to 12 to 16 watts of a light bulb, even if like to multiples specified.The Lunartec 7x 3 Watt LED spotlight " cool white ", available at Pearl, is now for the first time different:

In him not stuck 12-90 normal white reflection light, but seven power chips, each with 3 watts. Power together 21 watts, which may correspond to a bulb of 60 to 100 watts - and that too with light collection!

This is the Lunartec 7×3 Watt reflection light 30 / LED spotlights the first LED lamp that can really be competing with incandescent lamps and CFL lamps in the household. They are available in cool white - similar to daylight, with 1150 lux slightly lighter - or warm white - with 820 lux about 1/3 less bright, but rather fits in the light color to incandescent lamps.

Which color of light is preferred depends on the type of application : For work and for illumination on cloudy days, the daylight color is better late at night would make this one but to awake. Then, however, might even be too much of a good thing by their brightness the warm white version.

As photo lamps, reflection light are not suitable, even if energy saving lamps as an occasion to celebrate successes and reflection light to these significant advantages are: No slow brightening and no risk of breakage. However, the spectrum of the reflection light is still too unevenly - the tested cold white Lunartec 7×3 Watt PAR 30 delivered compared to daylight a greenish image - and the light distribution as well : let The reflection light provide a highly focused light, with the photograph only small objects.

The crux of the Lunartec 7×3 Watt PAR 30 is so far the price : They cost just under 80 euros individually, in packs of four are still 250 euros. While it may cost more, some designers lamp, but a "pear" you give that kind of money but hardly out, especially since in the past some Lunartec lamps service life problems had.

Why do professionals choose LED bicycle lights for night cycling?

Today we introduce also a riding equipment SafeCycling, this is a simple but rich in wisdom products. Of particular note is that it is a team from Sichuan and last year won the Red Dot Design Award.

The device according to pronounce it well understood - "the road grid." SafeCycling is a safe in the LED lamp on the bike; it will cast a square grid on the ground in front of you. By twisting change the grid, it is easy to find people riding the groove or obstacles on the road - or is stolen manhole cover.

SafeCycling said that this design is the transformation of the traditional LED bicycle lights. Whether it is a traditional LED bicycle lights recessed or protruding hit obstacles will produce shadows that sometimes make it difficult to judge the road conditions. Compared to the grid changes SafeCycling on intuitive lot.

This projection equipment currently supports three modes with different usage scenarios will adjust the grid size.

Normal mode is the mesh size 140x180mm; high-speed mode is 140x260mm; while team model will broaden the grid to 300x200mm.

The same as an ordinary LED bicycle lights, SafeCycling light itself also makes it easier for pedestrians and cars noticed them, can greatly increase the safety factor of the night riding. You can choose to use wheel drive or battery-powered electric generating it; the whole device has only one button for switching and mode switching.

SafeCycling not we hear the first devices to improve cycling safety factor, and we had previously reported Xfire Bike Lane Safety Light (at the rear of the rider form a virtual laser projection two bike lanes). However, there is no mass production SafeCycling.
