Littlite LED Introduced at Winter NAMM
 January 23, 2003
21st century LED Technology implemented in a thoughtful manner brings new advantages to the Littlite. Long life,
shock and vibration resistant along with cool operation make the Littlite LED great for many applications.
The Littlite LED provides even illumination over a wide area - it was specifically designed to evenly illuminate consoles and control panels. Some
LED lights produce a very bright "spot" of light, but this is useless for illuminating a broad work space.
Improved color rendering is acheived through the addition of red LEDs to the usual "white" LED light sources. "White" LEDs
are actually blue LEDs with a phosphor added to convert some of the blue light to yellow. This mixture of blue and
yellow light appears white to the eye but appears very cold, or bluish. Red objects appear brown and dull because there
is no red light for them to reflect. The added red light from the Littlite LED warms the character of the light and allows
the eye to see reds as they are, vibrant and not washed out.
Switchable red only output (Lampsets only) the Littlite LED can become a red light for unobtrusive use with no impact
on the user's night vision, or a white source with good color rendering. Littlite LED products employ six white and
four red LEDs to give you the best display of usable white light in a compact package.
- Low power -- less than 100 milliamps at 12 volts drives the Littlite LED to full output.
- Efficient -- most of the power used by the Littlite LED is delivered to the LEDs . . . not a resistor.
- Long life -- Over-driving seriously reduces the life of white LEDs. The LEDs in the Littlite LED are not overdriven and may be expected to remain useful for over 5000 hours of operation.
Lifetime warranty on the mechanicals, two year
warranty on the LED element.
