  • Introducing LED Outdoor Lighting Fixtures
    Nightscaping® is pleased to announce the arrival of our LEDs, Light Emitting Diodes.  These new lighting tools are small electronic 'wafers' that, when stimulated by electricity, emit light using much less wattage.

    Our design includes both the driver and emitter into a single body, which allows easy retrofit of LED into all of our current outdoor lighting fixtures.  There is no need to change sockets or modify fixtures.  With our LEDs, you may retrofit existing Nightscaping® outdoor lighting systems for tremendous energy savings and less service calls, or you may design complete new systems using a smaller PowerCenter™ and smaller gauge lighting cable for even more savings.

    This is the lighting technology your clients are asking for!  You may purchase our new LEDs from your local Nightscaping® distributor. Contact Us!

    Tech Info

    MR16 LED

    LED0335 - 3watt mr-16, warm white color, 35-degree beam pattern, operates at 8-15v AC current and -15C to 65C temperature range. And it carries a 2-YEAR conditional warranty. We will soon offer other beam spreads and several different colors.  This unit creates light similar to the BAB lamp which is an industry standard, but it uses 86% less energy. Available in 3 sizes: LED0315, LED0335, and LED0360 (see lamp charts below.
    Single Contact Bayonet LED

    LED015 - 1.5watt, single contact bayonet base, warm white color, operates at 8-15v AC current, and -15C to 65C temperature range. And it carries a 4-YEAR conditional warranty. This unit creates light similar to the GE93 lamp which is an industry standard.  The light is a bit softer and may require shorter spacing of pathlight applications. And it uses 90% less energy.



      The only thing consistent between the Standard Material List and the LED Material List is the total number of fixtures.

      The wattage of each lamp is considerably smaller in the LED installation which requires a smaller PowerCenter™. Total energy consumption is much less, but light output is similar.

      For new systems, you may use smaller-gauge cable and save even more money. For existing systems, the LEDs will easily retrofit into our fixtures, thus avoiding a big upgrade bill for your client.

    FAQ

    Q:    What are LEDs?
    A:    Light Emitting Diodes are small semiconductors that emit light when electrons are “excited” by electricity. Learn more about LEDs at wikipedia.


    Q:    What are the advantages of LED? 
    A:    There are very small light bulbs that do not need to heat up a filament to white hot temperatures to generate light.  Filament heating is a large part of the energy used in incandescent and halogen lamps.  The actual diode does not generate any real heat and uses considerable less energy to produce light.


    Q:    Will LED lamps work in snow and cold climates?
    A:    Our LEDs are unaffected by cold temperatures.  They will work well in hot or cold environments.  However, when placed in ground-mount uplighting situations, LEDs will not produce enough heat to melt snow layers that are usually dissolved by the heat of conventional low-voltage systems.


    Q:    Do LED light sources give the same quality of light as incandescent or halogen lamps? 
    A:    Ours Do!  You will be pleased to see the warm light of our LEDs.  Your clients will love the look!


    Q:    Are LEDs a DC (direct current) device?  And what is the operating range? 
    A:    Our LEDs will work with either DC voltage (battery source), or AC (alternating current) from a Nightscaping® PowerCenter™.  The voltage operating range of our LEDs is 8-15 volts AC.  When used in a Nightscaping® lighting system, there is no need to reconfigure cable runs or transformer connections. 


    Q:    Will LEDs give my client the same light pattern and look that I get from standard lamps? 
    A:    LEDs do not use the ‘pinpoint’ light source created by the filaments found in standard low-voltage lamps.  Consequently, the light output is a bit softer.  We are working to expand our line to include several directional LEDs in beam patterns similar to the standard low-voltage lamps currently in use.


    Q:    How will this affect my lighting designs and installations? 
    A:    LEDs are definitely small-space lighting tools.  Currently they will not replace the more powerful standard lamps, but they have their place in lighting design.  The most obvious requirement would be to locate LED pathlights a bit closer together for better illumination.  And plan for multiple light sources for larger trees or objects.   


    Q:    How will using LEDs for existing Nightscaping® systems benefit my clients? 
    A:    The cost of  LED units is initially higher than conventional low-voltage lamps, however, the longer life of LEDs means few if any service calls, and the energy usage is much lower.  In most cases 80-90% lower! 


    Q:    What about new Nightscaping®  systems?  How do I sell LED to my prospective clients? 

    A:    Remember the basics: very low energy usage, warm light output, long-life expectancy and Nightscaping® warranty, smaller PowerCenter™, and if desired smaller gauge cable.  This adds up to significant savings. And best of all, American-made LEDs from Nightscaping®, The Premier Low-Voltage Outdoor Lighting Manufacturer!
