GE Lighting Solutions Introduces Tetra Edgestrip and Tetra Ministrip

For businesses intent on keeping up appearances, the two newest members of the GE Tetra® LED Lighting Systems family deliver superior light uniformity in shallow cabinet signs. GE Lighting Solutions introduces Tetra EdgeStrip and Tetra miniStrip, which are designed to replace T8 fluorescent tubes by offering a number of features that provide superior visual performance in any climate while delivering up to 90 percent energy savings compared to T8 lamps. Both Tetra LED Lighting Systems feature GE’s patented OptiLens™ optical lens technology, which captures otherwise wasted light and redirects it toward the illuminated surface to maximize the performance of each LED module and ensure an exceptionally uniform sign. OptiLens eliminates light striping and shadows that can occur with fluorescent tubes. "Cabinet signs are supposed to grab attention and project a professional brand image. T8 fluorescent tubes don’t always provide uniformity, with the space between tubes appearing dark, leaving an unwanted striping effect,” says Matt Tavernelli, product marketing leader, GE Lighting Solutions. “Tetra EdgeStrip and Tetra miniStrip eliminate this problem in shallow cabinet signs by providing even illumination across the sign face to maintain brand image while also greatly reducing energy consumption.” Source: gelightingsolutions.com
