TCP, Inc. Debuts New Line of Eight-Watt Cold Cathode Lamps for Signage and Decorative Lighting
Lamps perform for 25,000 hours
NEW YORK (May 8-10,2007) – TCP, Inc. expands the energy efficient benefits of its cold cathode product line with the addition of the eight-watt cold cathode A-lamp, Flat PAR 30, Flat PAR 38 and R30 lamp. Also available in three and five watts, the cold cathode lamps last an average 25,000 hours and are recommended for rapid cycle applications such as signage, amusement parks, rooflines, and theaters. All of TCP’s cold cathode lamps are available in clear, white, frost, and colors, including yellow, blue, green and red.
The eight-watt cold cathode lamps are dimmable to 20 percent, making for an excellent accent lighting solution in restaurants and other applications where low light levels are desired. They are also resistant to damage caused by vibration, which makes them ideal for use as signal lights, such as at railroad crossings.
A special phosphor coating provides excellent color consistency and is resistant to fading and the effects of ultraviolet radiation. Non-leaded glass provides better lumen maintenance over the life of the bulb, and all of the cold cathode lamps are UL listed for indoor and outdoor use.
