Technologies offers you a selection of papers on Magnetic Induction Lighting
technology. Magnetic Induction
lighting, also called Induction Lamps or Induction Lights, is currently
the most energy efficient lighting on the planet! The papers in our
library provide information and education on various aspects of Induction
Lights.

The Science Behind Magnetic Induction
Lighting
This 30 page paper (available as a PDF
file) gives a comprehensive overview of Magnetic Induction Lighting, how it
works, a discussion of human vision, detailed information on S/P ratios and Visually
Effective Lumens (VEL), the psychological effects of light, ballast efficiency
and more. There are numerous citations and quotes from scientific papers
which show that current lighting measurements do not accurately reflect the
needs of human vision and how Induction Lamps can fulfill those needs in an
energy efficient manner.
There is a summary
section listing the advantages of magnetic induction lamp technology and the
paper includes many graphs, charts and photographs to give the reader added insight into
Magnetic Induction Lighting technology.
References are
included for those who wish to follow up on the original papers cited.

How Magnetic Induction Lamps Work
This 8 page paper (available as a PDF
file) provides an introduction to Induction Lamps with a brief overview of a
history of lighting, and a section detailing how some common lamps work.
Extensive information, with diagrams, on how both external inductor and
internal magnetic induction lamps is provided so that the reader will become familiar
with the inner working of induction lights.
There is a section covering LED lamps Vs. Induction lamps and a summary
section providing the advantages of induction lamps. Graphs, charts and photographs
give the reader added insight into the technology. References are
included for those who wish to follow up on the subject.

Environmental
Aspects of Magnetic Induction Lamps
In
an time when there is growing concern about Global Warming and Climate Change,
and a desire to reduce our environmental footprint, individuals and business
are seeking ways to reduce their environmental impact… to “Go Green”.
This 16 page paper, with many illustrations and tables, considers
energy efficient lighting, particularly Magnetic Induction Lamps, as a way to
implement an environmentally friendly technology. Induction Lamps can
reduce environmental impact in several areas such as saving energy, reducing
Co2 emissions, reducing materials consumption, reducing Mercury consumption,
and recycling issues.
Reducing the environmental impact and “carbon footprint” of your
operations may be more feasible when implemented as a series of small
incremental steps rather than as a large project. One of the often
overlooked areas, where it is both simple and financially feasible to make
improvements, is in lighting systems. Magnetic Induction Lighting is one of
the most environmentally friendly options available today for commercial and
industrial applications.

Magnetic Induction Lights
Vs. LED Lights
By
now, it is evident that we are facing an energy problem - while our primary
sources of energy are running out, the demand for energy is continuously
increasing. In the face of this situation, energy-efficient lighting
systems have become a hot topic. Energy for lighting can consume between
60% (in educational settings) and 31% (in retail store applications) of an
organizations electricity budget.
As the cost of energy rises, people are seeking ways in which to reduce
energy consumption. The main reason is financial, but the specter of
Global Warming (climate change) and respect for the environment by reducing CO2
emissions, also plays a role.
The two leading contenders for energy efficient industrial and
commercial lighting applications are Magnetic Induction Lamps (also called
Induction Lights) and Light Emitting Diodes (LED) lighting. This paper
compares the current state of these two lighting technologies and
demonstrates, scientifically, that Induction Lighting is the best, and most
energy efficient choice, for a wide range of applications.
