| There are many benefits in using LED lighting: & Up to ten times the life expectancy of conventional lighting 9 Hugely energy efficient 3 Small in size 3 Multi-colour options 9 Aesthetically pleasing However, there are also potential problems if the LEDs used are not fit for purpose. Rolec has carried out a number of studies and product trials of LED lighting and has found that many of the 'off-the-shelf' LED lights will simply not produce the desired results or stand up to the elements of a marina environment. Corrosion, heat dissipation and condensation are all highly important factors that need to be considered when choosing an LED lighting system in order to avoid regular light failure and diminishing light output. Over a two year period Rolec has been working closely with a small number of specialist LED designers and manufacturers and has now successfully introduced an LED lighting range designed specifically for the marina industry. |
