LED Engin, Inc., global leader in high flux density LED products, announces that its tunable white light engine LuxiTune™ has picked up the prize for Best Light Source at the 2014 Lighting Design Awards. Held last night in London, the awards ceremony attracted more than 800 of the country’s leading lighting designers, manufacturers, architects and end users.
Earlier this year, LuxiTune was crowned Best New Component at Source Level, a special citation in the 4th annual Architectural SSL Product Innovation Awards (PIAs). LuxiTune was also winner in the Modules and Light Sources category. This success follows the product being recognized as Solid-State Lighting Product of the Year at the Elektra Awards, Europe’s flagship electronics industry awards competition.
LuxiTune delivers warm, soft tones of dimmed light in a compact single emitter while maintaining color quality and consistency within three MacAdam ellipses over the full dimming and correlated color temperature (CCT) range. LED Engin’s robust multi-channel LuxiGen™ emitter platform in concert with LuxiTune’s thermal feedback control eliminates the known effects of varying light output over temperature and time from different color dies, providing exceptional flux and color stability over the life of the product.
Since their inception, the Lighting Design Awards have been at the heart of the industry calendar, shining a light on the most talented companies the industry has to offer. On the reason why LuxiTune is award-winning, one of the LDA judges commented: “I had previously considered that the elegance and comfort historically offered by the dining room chandelier and/or dimmed tungsten were to be lost in the search for energy saving via the use of LEDs. Here, I felt, a new lease of life was arriving for atmospheric lighting in the home.”
Later this week, LED Engin will reveal news about a new version of LuxiTune offering users additional tunability and connectivity benefits ahead of Light + Building held in LED Engin Inc. 651 River Oaks Parkway San Jose, CA 95134, USA
