After several technology breakthroughs, Lebelight has become the first manufacturer in the world to mass-produce 130 lm grade 1W LEDs. This new grade of 1W white LEDs are low cost, long-lasting, and ROHS and CE certified. Lebelight also announced similar breakthroughs to her 0.5W, 1W, 3W, 5W, 10W, 30W, and 100W single-packaged LEDs. Lebelight also produces LED light-fixtures including street lights, tunnel lights, solar-powered outdoor LED lights, coal miner lamps, emergency LED lights, LED bulbs, office and family LED lights, etc.
“This is great news for our solid state light industry,” Lebelight’s CEO, Dr. Yongan Wu said. “LED has the potential to save 95% of energy compared to Incandescent light and cause little-to-none environmental pollution compared to florescent light. The main challenge has been LED’s cost and brightness. It’s our great pleasure to announce breakthroughs in both of these two areas to lead the ways for LEDs to enter our everyday life.” He also mentioned Lebelight’s low-cost production, which could cut the retail prices by one-third to one-half. He welcomes research and distribution partnerships around the world. Yongan Wu holds a Ph. D from Stanford University, USA. He was Co-Founder of Silicon Valley company Onetta that was sold to Bookham (NasdaqNM:BKHM) in 2004.
