Cyberlux Corporation (OTC Bulletin Board: CYBL), a leading provider of LED lighting solutions, announced today that the Company has recently filed for patent protection for four new products developed for its new OEM customers. The Company’s new patent filings address the apparatus and methods for providing unique solid-state lighting technology encompassed in four product solutions, extending the existing Cyberlux patent portfolio for future product development. The Cyberlux OEM clientele have received orders and contracts from both governmental agencies, as well as large, multi-national retailers for the products designed by Cyberlux.
Encompassed in two new patent filings, the Cyberlux Portable Shelter Lighting (PSL) and Enclosed Shelter Lighting (ESL) systems deliver the most energy efficient white and red LED lighting available in a fixed or portable lighting solution for enclosed spaces. Designed to provide ideal light dispersion and illumination for the portable shelter and “command and control” environments, Cyberlux engineered the PSL and ESL system configurations to flexibly illuminate environments of any size and scale, all powered by either AC or DC power, including DC solar power. Meeting the requirements of the world class, multi-national OEM customer, who provides specialized command and control systems to all branches of the U.S. and foreign military services, homeland defense and first responders, the PSL and ESL products expand the Cyberlux OEM product offerings to the Department of Defense (DoD) supplier marketplace and address the significant fluorescent lighting technology transition.
The Cyberlux I-Safe LED Lighting products are designed to meet the stringent Intrinsically Safe certification standards required to safely operate lighting products in hazardous, flammable environments, such as First Responders are typically required to do. Encompassed in two additional patent filings, the Cyberlux I-Safe products are engineered to contain no components or circuits that hold enough electrical energy or thermal energy to cause an ignition to occur. The Cyberlux I-Safe LED Lighting products provide multi-mode task and work lighting in compact, light-weight designs that are flexible and adaptable and made from chemical and corrosive resistant materials. Utilizing unique Cyberlux LED technology that produces 50 – 120 lumens from AAA, C, D to 6V battery power, the Cyberlux I-Safe LED Lighting products operate for 20 – 60 hours, are waterproof, are impact resistant from a 2 meter drop and meets the Intrinsically Safe standards of multiple agencies, including the Mine Safety and Heath Association (MSHA) standards. As part of the Cyberlux / Spectrum Brands Supplier Agreement, Cyberlux will exclusively supply Spectrum Brands with the proprietary I-Safe LED Lighting products which Spectrum Brands will evaluate for distribution to their global retail and commercial client base.
“Cyberlux is excited to have already received orders and contracts for the LED solutions designed for our military clients, as well as for our large retail client. The Company’s expanding patent claims portfolio will not only provide patent protection for our important LED products and lighting systems, but will also provide an ongoing development platform for future products,” said Mark Schmidt, president and chief executive officer for Cyberlux. “The Company’s ability to partner with significant OEM customers, develop, patent and produce innovative solid-state lighting products is strategically important and supports our focus on near-term profitability and long-term growth.”
