TORRANCE, CA — April 24, 2002 — LEDtronics announces sunlight-visible, right-angled 9mm (T3¼) AUT194 WedgeLED
Lamps that are designed to replace incandescent 194 and 168 bulbs in side
marker indicators of trailers, campers and trucks. AUT-194 LED lamps feature
either four Super Red (630nm) or Super Yellow (590nm) LEDtronics discrete
SML1209-OER-TR or SML1209OPY-TR SMT LEDs, respectively. The discrete LEDs
are mounted on a printed circuit board that is integrated into a 9mm-wedge
base. AUT194 LEDs illuminate the entire surface of the fixture and pass
standard J592 of the Society of Automotive Engineers. Red AUT194 LED lamps
output 5000mcd. Yellow lamps emit 6000mcd.
Integrating solid-state electronics with advanced LED technology, LEDtronics’ AUT-194
LED lamps offer automotive applications years of reliable performance, which
represents potentially millions of dollars in reduced repairs and ancillary
costs. The AUT-194 LED lamps advantages over equivalent incandescents are
not limited to automotive repairs and accidents, but extend to collateral
issues such as property damage claims, productivity losses, medical expenses,
legal and court costs, etc. . . . AUT-194 LEDs offer economic savings far
greater than offered by the price of the incandescent bulb. LEDtronics’ AUT-194
automotive LED bulbs feature industry-standard 9mm wedge bases that are
plug-compatible with most major automotive manufacturers’ 12/14-Volt
DC systems.
LED lamps’ low-current, high-efficiency operation uses on 10% - 20%
of the power consumed by incandescents. Not only are AUT-194 LED lamps energy
friendly, but the reduced power consumption presents both the manufacturer
and vehicle owner with a number of potential cost savings and design options
such as reducing the size of the alternator, using light gauge wire for
the electrical system and improving fuel consumption due to less weight
and engine load. Additionally, LED lamps produce little or no heat resulting
in lighted panels that are cool-to-the-touch unlike those lit by incandescent
lamps. A typical LED lamp provides an intense beam of colored light. The
intensity and wavelength remain stable over the lamp’s lifetime of
100,000-plus hours. (That’s 30-50 times longer than incandescent bulbs)
Founded in 1983, LEDtronics leads where others only follow when it comes
to designing, manufacturing and packaging state-of-the-art LEDs to meet
the world’s constantly changing lighting needs. Our inventive product
line encompasses an array of direct incandescent lamp replacement Based
LED Lamps, low-cost snap-in and relampable Panel Mount LED Lamps and holders,
high intensity sunlight-visible Discrete LEDs, PCB LEDs circuit board status
indicators, surface mount diodes SMT LEDs, full-spectrum rainbow RGB LEDs
and Infra-Red (IR) LEDs.
Prices for AUT-194 LED lamps are $12.50 each. Samples are available for
qualified customers. For more information on AUT-194 LED lamps, contact
