LED Basics Webcast Today

July 8, 2009

Bulbrite, a Moonachie, N.J.-based manufacturer and supplier of energy-efficient light source solutions, will host a webcast on “LED Basics” today, from noon to 1 p.m. EST.

The webcast will review the benefits of energy-efficient LEDs (light-emitting diodes) and their usage in today’s portable lamps and lighting fixtures. LEDs are semiconductors that convert electrical energy directly into light, using a solid crystal chip. In recent years, high-powered white LEDs have been developed with an output ranging from 40 to 150 lumens each, so they can be used for a variety of retail lighting applications.

According to Bulbrite, LED lighting solutions provide long-lasting, energy-efficient lamping performance, and have a potential lifespan of up to 50,000 hours.

Additional LED Basics Webcasts will be held Aug. 13, Sept. 10, Oct. 8, Nov. 12 and Dec. 10, 2009.

To attend, contact Bulbrite by e-mail at info@Bulbrite.com.

Against a trying backdrop of persistently weak economic conditions, fierce competition and financially wary shoppers, supermarket produce departments faced much harsher headwinds during the past 12- month period than they have in recent years, as evidenced by marginal comparable-sales gains and a tentative outlook for the balance of the year, according to results of Progressive Grocer's 2009 Annual Produce Operations Review.
