Gravity works . . . Unfortunately.

Proper aiming and adjusting of the accent lighting at a museum or retail store is key to creating an exciting and dynamic environment. Keeping that focus is just as important. With halogen lighting, the lamps need to be replaced several times a year. Very few maintenance personnel take the time and effort to keep the lighting properly focused while changing a lamp. That means your carefully aimed and adjusted lighting won’t last through many lamp replacements.

Along comes what appears to be the solution; LED replacement lamps for halogen. Sources like PAR38 lamps can last 50,000 hours. Therefore, the lamp doesn’t need to be replaced for years, maybe even a decade. Now you don’t have to worry about maintenance inadvertently messing up your carefully aimed and adjusted lighting.

Yet, there is one problem with this solution. Passively cooled LED replacement lamps utilize a lot of metal. A single replacement lamp can weigh 1 ½ lbs or more. Accent lights for halogen lamps were not designed for that type of weight. Over the life of the LED lamp, gravity can have a huge effect. So even without the lamp being changed, your carefully aimed and adjusted lighting can become unfocused.

Not with Solais!

A Solais LR38 actively-cooled LED replacement lamp weighs 9.4oz. That’s barely over half a pound: equivalent to the weight of a standard halogen lamp. So not only do you get the benefit of a long life with Solais, but you don’t have to worry about gravity messing with your carefully aimed and adjusted lighting.

With Solais, that means it’s a win!
