LEDtronics has released the latest additions to its series of energy-efficient replacements for PAR38 light bulbs. The high-power PAR38-12X2WF series of warm-white and pure-white frosted soft-flood bulbs offer long-lasting durability, low power consumption and money savings. They run a wide range of voltages from 85 to 265 VAC requiring no special adapters, while consuming less than 18 watts. The bulbs directly replace halogens and metal halides up to 90 watts, providing 77 percent to 85 percent energy savings.

In addition, the series PAR38-12X2WF boasts an outstanding color quality, a wide-focused beam of around 90°, powerful 661 (XIW) and 808 (XPW) lumens of brightness, easy drop-in installation in existing 26 mm Edison/E27 European base sockets and sturdy construction with UV-stabilized plastic lens and magnesium alloy housing.

The PAR38-12X2WF floodlights offer a directional light that is perfect for use in recessed lighting, accent lighting, garage or workshop lights, down lights and ceiling cans. These super-bright LED bulbs also are an excellent deterrent for intruders; you can depend on them to illuminate the perimeter of your house and enhance existing security measures. Since LED lights are 300 percent more efficient than compact fluorescent lamps, these bulbs are suited operating on an alternative or renewable energy resource such as solar or wind power.

The maintenance-free LEDtronics PAR38 series comes with CE safety assurance and is RoHS certified—it adheres to strict European guidelines concerning the Reduction of Hazardous Substances such as lead and mercury. Since it produces no harmful ultraviolet or infrared radiation, it reduces light pollution, and it is compatible with the international “Dark Skies” initiative.

The LEDtronics PAR38-12X2WF-XIW-001W (warm white/3,000 K) and PAR38-12X2WF-XPW-001W (pure white/6,000 K) frosted LED bulbs retail for $145.60 each. Availability is stock to four to six weeks for special requirements.
