cities have carried out LED streetlamp demonstration projects

Restricted by the high prices of LED, undetermined industrial standard and unsolved problems as lighting shapes, lifetimes and reliabilities, the market scale of the global LED lighting industry in 2007 was only 330 million USD. Among them, the building lighting application is the primary market resource with a scale of 350 million USD, accounting for about 45% of the whole market scale. With the improvement of LED technologies and the broadness of LED application areas, it is estimated that the market scale in 2012 will reach 1.6 billion USD and the compound growth rate from 2007 to 2012 will reach 35%.

Besides in the lighting area, LEDs are also widely used in backlights, displays, automobile markets and transport information areas. According to statistics, Chinese domestic LED industry remains an annual growth rate of over 20% in recent years.China Ministry of Science and Technology has put National Semiconductor Lighting Project on the Eleventh Five-year Development Program of Science and Technology and authorized 5 LED industrial bases in Shanghai, Dalian, Nanchang, Xiamen and Shenzhen. At present, Beijing, Guangdong, Fujian, Shaanxi, Liaoning and other cities have carried out LED streetlamp demonstration projects.

The T9 light tubes are easy to install and are available in three white color temperatures, 3300k (cool white), 4200k (neutral white) and 6500k (warm white) and are sold in lengths of 1 to 5 feet. These 24V tubes are available in both 50o and 100o viewing angles and each tube includes two mounting hardware options which can rotate up to 120o. Whether your application is in need of the 50o or 120o angle of light, either angle delivers high lumen output which can be dimmed to any desired brightness using Marktech’s low voltage remote LED dimmer module. Engineered to last in excess of 50,000 hours, these sturdy aluminum tubes virtually eliminate maintenance hassles and replacement cost issues typically associated with fluorescents tubes. The T9 LED lights also contain no lead, mercury or glass, making handling and disposal less of a concern, and also is RoHS compliant.
