Smart system combines natural light with LED

Feb. 21, 2013

Solatube International’s Smart LED system harnesses sunlight during the day and transitions to energy-efficient LED lighting at night. An integral smart sensor activates the LED in low light; an optional occupancy sensor offers additional cost control. Each LED bulb lasts an average 20 years, minimizing the need for maintenance. The manufacturer estimates lighting cost savings of up to 94% compared with conventional illumination.
