PowerSecure International, launched its new SuperTube, a LED-based energy-efficient light, designed to replace and develop traditional overhead T8 and T12 fluorescent lighting.
With the installation of SuperTubes and power drivers and UL certification, this new technology is all set to be launched into the market. The first SuperTube installation at a customer facility, considerably improved its light quality and energy efficiency.
Sidney Hinton, CEO of PowerSecure, says that the company had been developing this technology for the past 12 months to present and promote a cost-effective product that maximizes lighting quality. The market for energy efficient overhead LED lights to replace fluorescent T8 and T12’s increases rapidly. Improving the quality of light in the workplace, and delivering a strong energy efficient return on investment for the customers are the significant features of SuperTube.
The SuperTube is particularly constructed for indoor T8 and T12 retrofit applications, offering stable returns on investment for its customers, drafted to conserve 75% of energy compared to traditional fluorescent lighting, thereby improving the quality of light in the workplace with reduction in maintenance cost, due to the light’s prolonged life span over ten years which would require the deployment of four fluorescents over the same period. However, the lights are easy to retrofit, with reduced installation costs.
