Direct AC LED Engines

As the lighting industry continues to mature, vendors continue to pursue inexpensive lighting solutions that offer universal compatibility and are easy to install. For OEMs and manufacturers, LEDs have proven to be a game-changer for lighting, offering better quality illumination with greater control and lower power requirements. The LEDs themselves, however, are only one part of the luminaire. The other pieces of the lighting fixture — the connectors, housing, optics, printed circuit board (PCB), and the power supply are all contributing factors to lighting energy consumption and performance. That's why more vendors are looking to use direct AC Engines to reduce manufacturing costs and improve performance.
