Soraa Inc of Fremont, CA, USA, which develops solid-state lighting technology built on 'GaN on GaN' (gallium nitride on gallium nitride) substrates, has added both lower- and higher-wattage 120V MR16 GU10 LED lamps to its product portfolio.
The 5W lamps are replacements for 35W-equivalent halogen lamps, and the 9W LED lamps replace 65-75W halogen lamps. These two new lines join the firm's existing line of 7.5W lamps (50W halogen equivalent).
"Like all of our lamps, they feature Soraa's signature elements of light quality — Point Source Optics and Violet-Emission 3-Phosphor technology," says George Stringer, senior VP of global sales & marketing. Soraa's Point Source Optics technology features full-visible-spectrum GaN-on-GaN LED with a unique folded optic with precision-cut prismatic lenses, resulting in crisp, high-intensity and uniform beams.
Soraa's Violet-Emission 3-Phosphor (VP) LED technology enables the rendering of colors and whiteness. Utilizing every color in the rainbow, especially deep red emission, VP Vivid Color renders warm tones accurately, and achieves a CRI of 95 and deep red (R9) rendering of 95. Also, unlike blue-based white LEDs without any violet emission, the VP Natural White is achieved by engineering the violet emission to properly excite fluorescing brightening agents including natural objects like human eyes and teeth, as well as manufactured white materials such as clothing, paper and cosmetics.
The new 5W and 9W GU10 lamps are compatible with a wide variety of dimmers and are available in three different beam angles as well as 2700K and 3000K color temperatures.
