Hibays ... Hibays ... Hibays
When Brooks Sheifer, Robert Ofsevit and I wrote ‘Essay By Invitation’ (a.k.a. The Case for T5HO Hibays), June 2001, LD+A, one of the main reasons was that we saw way too many hibays installed with HPS, standard (a.k.a. probe start) metal halide (MH) and eight 42W compact fluorescents. It is quite apparent that T5HOs and pulse start metal halide have made their mark. Since the text was submitted last March for June publication, much has been learned.

LEDs : From Indicators to Illumination
Article in Lighting Futures, Lighting Research Center By Andrew Bierman : Nearly everyone is familiar with LEDs (light-emitting diodes) from their use as indicator lights and numeric displays on consumer electronic devices. The low light output of LEDs and a lack of color options have limited LED technology to these uses. Now, however, new LED materials and improved production processes have resulted in bright LEDs in colors throughout the visible spectrum with efficacies greater than incandescent lamps. These brighter, more efficacious, and colorful LEDs may move LED technology into a range of lighting applications. The energy-savings potential is enormous. By one estimate, replacing only the incandescent traffic signals in the United States alone with LED signals would save nearly 2.5 billion kilowatt hours annually

Lamp Life (La vita è bella)"
Article in Lighting Futures by Lighting Research Center By John D. Bullough : It\'s not likely that Roberto Benigni will ever make any feature films extolling the virtues of long-life lamps and lighting systems. However, many in the lighting industry recently have been more than willing to discuss this aspect of lighting, and it appears that many more will do so in the future. A growing sophistication about the economics of lighting has emerged, and with it, so has an understanding that luminous efficacy, or lumens per watt, is not the only important variable in designing and maintaining cost-effective, quality lighting.
