RIDGEFIELD PARK, N.J.—Samsung Electronics America, Inc. announced the availability of Samsung’s first LED lighting solutions for the U.S. consumer market. Available through Lowe’s, Samsung’s initial product lineup includes A19, PAR20/30/38 and MR16 bulbs—all designed to easily replace traditional incandescent, halogen and CFL bulbs.
Seven Samsung lighting products are available immediately on Lowes.com and at select Lowe’s home improvement retail stores nationwide. The bulbs include:
• A19 Bulbs: Samsung’s A19 bulb is a directional bulb that is sized to easily replace a conventional incandescent bulb in any fixture where directional light is needed, from certain lamps to vanity lights and wall sconces. Because it is fully dimmable, consumers can recognize even more energy savings by selecting the most appropriate brightness depending on the time of day or the task at hand.
• PAR Bulbs: Samsung’s dimmable PAR replacement bulbs last 20 times longer than their equivalent halogen bulbs and are well suited for track and recessed lighting. With a variable beam angle of 25 to 40 degrees, Samsung’s PAR bulbs allow consumers to choose a more focused or diffused light depending on the mood they want to set in the room.
• MR16 Bulbs: Samsung’s MR16 bulbs are ideal for track, recessed and vanity lighting, and are offered in two different base types and brightness levels to accommodate a wide range of applications.
With Samsung’s clean and ultra-efficient LED chip technology, all of Samsung’s LED lighting products offer greater energy efficiency and longer lifespan than incandescent, halogen and compact fluorescent bulbs (CFLs). In fact, Samsung LED bulbs boast an average lifespan of 30,000 to 40,000 hours, which means they can last 27 to 36 years before needing to be replaced.
“A light bulb is no longer just a light bulb. It’s a digital technology made up of LED chips, drivers and electronics—familiar turf for Samsung,” said Kevin Dexter, Samsung’s senior vice president of Home Appliances. “Using the same digital expertise that brings true-to-life depth and crispness to Samsung’s latest LED TVs, we are now bringing light with true-to-nature tones to any room, any time of the day.”
