Carmanah launches Solar-LED streetlights at LIGHTFAIR

VICTORIA, BRITISH COLUMBIA: Carmanah Technologies introduced its next generation of solar-powered LED lights at the LIGHTFAIR International tradeshow and conference in New York City.

As part of a new “General Illumination” (GI) product line, the company will feature a range of solar-powered lights for street and parking lot applications, including the powerful new EverGEN™ 1500, along with a preview of the company’s sleek new EverGEN 1700-series design.

As a stand-alone alternative to traditional hard-wired streetlights, Carmanah solar-powered lights are designed to offer convenience without compromise. Durable, reliable and cost-effective, Carmanah lights deliver bright, uniform illumination wherever it’s needed — without trenching, cabling or grid access.

Featuring custom fixtures by leading LED-lighting designer Beta Lighting, Carmanah solar–powered lights offer superior output and performance in accordance with IESNA (Illuminating Engineering Society of North America) guidelines.

A full-cutoff “Dark Sky”-friendly design directs light only where needed (preventing glare or spillover of light onto neighboring properties or into the night sky), while integrated energy management and motion-sensing capabilities ensure optimal lighting performance year round. As a dependable, long-lasting lighting solution, Carmanah EverGEN lights are covered by a five-year limited system warranty.

According to Ted Lattimore, Carmanah CEO, solar-LED lighting technology is approaching the tipping point between industry innovation and widespread acceptance.

“These are exciting times for solar lighting,” said Lattimore. “It’s a proven technology: reliable, convenient and affordable with a low total cost of ownership. On new construction you can now save money by choosing solar over grid power — that just makes sense; if you can save money by switching to a clean renewable resource, it’s time to think solar,” said Lattimore.

Visit Carmanah (booth #403) at the LIGHTFAIR International Tradeshow and Conference, May 5-7, at the Javits Convention Center in New York City.
