Be Aware Of The Source Of Light Hitting Your Screen

LCD Lighting produces specialty fluorescent lamps for PoS (POP) displays. We provide an extensive

variety of colours and color-correction so that signal and POP screen makers can remain true to the

brand.

There were two fundamental challenges, and I can not really pinpoint which was larger. The first

challenge was determining a method of constructing a display with dead lights in an immaterial

way,so that they might look like they were floating. During the install, several light bulbs were

broken, a whole cord would come crashing down onto the ground, everyone would cease functioning

and look at me, it was rather spectacular. Eventually I figured out just how to do this and there were

no further issues.

Kevin Kelly noticedoneweekend that half the backlighting on his 1998 Variety Rover's dash wherethe

mileage and other info is displayed ceased working. Hecouldstill see the amounts, but just barely.

RonBeckett reports he lately had a similar problem and had solved itby replacing the lightbulbs that

furnish the back-lighting for the display. Rontells us this is an an effortless occupation; the display is

LCD and is illuminatedfrom the back by 1.2 watt wedge base balls (bulbs). They costaboutA$1 each

(US 60 cents). The globes are in twist lock holders andcan be a little tough to pull from the holder but

they are going to come out(gripthe glass bulb in your teeth and pull - oh, do not bite too hard!).

Light disribution - A typical incandescent lightbulb (or lamp as it's understood in the lighting market)

gives off light in all directions. LED lamps are more constrained, delivering out mild in one direction.

A superb general purpose LED emits light at about 230 degrees. That would do best-in a fixture with

a backing. A good omnidirectional lamp expands the light beam to 270 degrees - which would do

best-in a table lamp or fixture without a backing.

Another new option you'll see is color-temperature. Because few people are caring of the harshness

of fluorescent lamps, most CFLs now come in colours designed to mimic the warmth of an

incandescent lightbulb. Color is measured in Kelvins, ranging from 2,700 K (the warm light of

common incadescents) up to around 5,500 K (proving a sunlight or normal tone). Though all of these

bulbs create white light, warmer lights will have a more yellowish tint--better for bedrooms and

other soft lighting states--while cooler lights will have a blue tint--better for studying. Are new

lightbulbs safe?
