When adding additional lamps to a fixture, what is the additional lumen increase per lamp?

25 Feb

WIth a fluorescent fixture, when you have one lamp, you have the lumen output of that lamp, as you add additional lamps, is there a one-for-one lumen increase in lumen output?

You can not guarantee that the number of lumens will double by the addition of another bulb due to the design of the lamp holder, the wall textures and colors, the distance of the object being illuminated from the light source, and the position of the new bulb with respect to the other bulb.

Lumens are the perceived power of light by the human eye and lamps are designed to provide the desired illumination effect.

For instance, if you place a 40W bulb in a lamp with an opaque square lamp shade on your desk and also place a lamp with a 40W bulb in a metal parabolic lamp with a reflective surface, the appearance of light on your desk will be much greater for the parabolic lamp as opposed to the opaque lamp.

The same is true for the fixtures installed in ceilings. If you put the same number of the exact same fixtures in two different rooms that are exactly the same size with ceiling exactly the same height from the floor but have different textured walls, the appearance of the brightness of the room will differ. If the walls are the same and one floor is tile as opposed to carpet, the same is true.

So in your case, the additional bulb may be positioned such that it can block some of the illumination of the original bulb whose light was previously being reflected to your work surface The end result is that the measurable light at your work surface will not truly double.

Try it with a light meter sometime.

How can I make lamps, clocks, and fountains from scratch?

22 Feb

I am interested in making my own clocks, lamps and fountains from recycled materials, but want to know how to wire lamps, manipulate clock gears and hook up fountains. I know that you usually have to buy some of the gear, but how can you customize it (for instance, a clock face)? Where can I find more information and how-to guides on how to do this?

If you google lamp plans or how to wire lamps there are plenty of creditable sources that will guide you through how to do pretty much all of this

Is it okay to transport kerosene lamps carefully packed and secured in a car with a bit of kersone remaining?

19 Feb

Don’t have much time before moving and pouring out kerosene would mean toxic waste disposal, which will be hard to do. There isn’t that much fuel left in bottom of lamps; what harm is there in driving these in air-conditioned car, if safely wrapped in plastic and secured against breakage or spillage? Thanks for any advice!

I doubt that you’d have any problem with the conditions you’ve described. But to be perfectly safe pour that small amount of kerosene out into a small bowl and burn it. Only takes a couple of minutes and then there’s absolutely no danger of a fire enroute.

MR16 GU10 LED Lamps

18 Feb

TORRANCE, CA — August 15, 2008 — LEDtronics® introduces an addition to its line of drop-in replacement MR16-styled /GU10-based LED bulbs: High-powered 3.3-Watt LED lamps. Two major advantages distinguish this new bulb over other GMR16 LED lamps. First, it is engineered to handle the variations in voltages that may accompany noisy or dirty AC (but not DC) power supplies, eliminating potential burnout from incoming voltage that is higher than the lamps capacity. Second, the new 3.3-Watt MR16/GU10 bulb eliminates the need to stock a variety of LED MR16/GU10 bulbs to coordinate with different voltages that power sources of 80-260 volts AC may present, simplifying procurement and inventory procedures.

High-powered 3.3-watt LED MR16/GU10 bulbs (Series Number GMR16-5W) have the following characteristics: Bi-pin bases just like standard incandescent MR16/GU10-based bulbs, and light outputs of 123 lumens using only 3.3 watts with input voltage range of 80-260VAC. The bulb features three High-Power LEDs and is offered in Warm White (3000 Kelvin) color temperature and in 20° spotlight beam angle. With factory approval, MR16/GU10 3.3W bulbs may be ordered in other LED colors, voltages and beam angles. They carry a three-year limited warranty. Unlike halogen MR16 lamps that create potentially damaging heat and have caused fires when accidentally coming in contact with other objects, LED-sourced MR16/GU10 bulbs generate less heat while operating, and pose no threat to the objects they are illuminating or to their surroundings.

Varied, Maintenance-Free Applications
Lighting professionals, architects, industrial designers and maintenance departments will find these MR16/GU10 3.3W lamps to be excellent solutions for their maintenance-free applications. These lamps are commonly used for accent, task and display-case lighting, track lighting in museums, elevators, jewelry stores and hotels. They are excellent for both residential lighting situations and entertainment venues like theaters, restaurants and theme parks. They are also ideal for use with alternative and renewable-energy resources like solar and wind power.

With an average White LED lifespan of up to 50,000-hours (five years), LEDs operate reliably year after year. Solid-state design renders LEDs impervious to electrical and mechanical shock, vibration, frequent switching and environmental fluctuation. Integrated current-limited resistors prevent short-circuiting. LED lamps use only 10%-20% of the energy consumed by equivalent incandescent lamps. When combined with their maintenance-free operation, this results in substantial cost savings.

Founded in 1983, LEDtronics® leads where others only follow when it comes to designing, manufacturing and packaging state-of-the-art LED bulbs to meet the worlds constantly changing lighting needs. Our inventive product line encompasses an array of direct incandescent-lamp-replacement Based LEDs bulbs, low-cost snap-in and relampable Panel Mount LED lamps, high intensity sunlight-visible Discrete LEDs, PCB LEDs circuit board status indicators, surface-mount diodes SMT LEDs, full-spectrum rainbow RGB LEDs and Infra-Red (IR) LEDs.

The price of an MR16/GU10-3.3W LED bulb is $59.95 each. Discounts are available for large-quantity orders. Availability is stock to 4-6weeks for special requirements. For additional information, contact LEDtronics toll-free at 1-800-579-4875, telephone 310-534-1505, fax at 310-534-1424, click here to email us or mail at LEDtronics Inc., 23105 Kashiwa Court, Torrance, CA 90505.
