Current models of T5 fluorescent lighting has outputs very similar in quantity and quality of light to that of Induction lighting. Both lighting technologies are very energy efficient Trayvon Mullen Camo Jersey , very much cheaper than LED lighting and present very high readings for both key light quality measures of CRI (Colour rendering Index) and VEL (Visually Effective Lumens).
The following is a point by point comparison between Induction lighting and T5 fluorescent lighting.
Induction lighting is the longest proven lamp life technology with our Lightingretrofit lamps having an average lamp life of 80,000+ hours long life expectancy. Compare this to an average lamp life for normal T5 fluorescent lamps of around 20,000 hours. There are new high tech versions of T5 with much longer lamp life which is great news, but still not nearly as long as Induction lighting and available at very premium prices.
T5 fluorescent lamps like to stay on as much as possible and are not ideal for use with energy saving options such as timers and motion sensors because the constant switching on and off will deplete the electrodes at a faster rate and thus reduce the lamp life of the fitting. This will markedly increase the maintenance costs of the fittings over time and thus increase the overall lifetime cost per fitting. Induction lighting is very complementary when used in conjunction with these extra energy saving measures because it has no wearing parts in the lamp and is capable of switching on and off many times a day for many Johnathan Abram Camo Jersey , many years. When all the energy saving and extra-long lamp life is combined with the low upfront cost, Induction lighting technology stands out as the lowest lifetime lighting cost of any area lighting technology.
In areas of low ceiling height T5 fluorescent lighting is a very cost effective form of lighting which our Induction lighting cannot really compete with. It is when the ceiling height is higher as with warehouse lighting and other area lighting applications that Induction lighting comes into its own when compared to T5 fluorescent lighting. In these applications there are 2 ways to go with T5 fluorescent, either you can put in many units of twin 28W or 35W fittings and wear the extra maintenance costs of the more frequent lamp and ballast changes, or install the newer multi lamp T5 fittings which may have up to 6 long life lamps with quality reflectors Josh Jacobs Camo Jersey , but good quality fittings of this variety are generally much more expensive when compared to the 150-300W output of a single Induction highbay light fixture.
End of life replacement and control of the mercury within a standard fluorescent tube is an issue which needs to be factored into lighting choices. Induction lighting contains a small pellet of amalgam mercury which is fully contained in a glass bubble and is easily removed when the lamp eventually comes to the end of its life, some 3-4 lamp changes latter than a T5 fluorescent lamp fitting. For area lighting applications in Victoria and NSW we offer obligation free basic lighting design plans from the supply of simple building dimensions and lighting requirement information.

When developing new strategies or products Antonio Brown Camo Jersey , coming up with unique ideas is often a struggle. It is one of the reasons why, in any industry, there is so much repetition. One way to generate new ideas and "get the creative juices flowing" is by brainstorming using props. There are several ways to incorporate props into a session. Two of my favorites are the Wall Street Journal (WSJ) and goodie bags.
~~~~~~~~ What is Brainstorming? ~~~~~~~~
According to dictionary, brainstorming is: 1) A method of shared problem solving in which all members of a group spontaneously contribute ideas or 2) A similar process undertaken by a person to solve a problem by rapidly generating a variety of possible solutions.
In action Derek Carr Camo Jersey , brainstorming should be uncensored - no idea is dumb or impossible. In an organization, throw titles out the window. The janitor's ideas have the same validity as the CEO's. When brainstorming, try to pretend you know nothing about what can and cannot be done. Write down ideas as they come up, no matter how outlandish. The task at hand is to free-associate Bo Jackson Camo Jersey , generating as many ideas as possible.
~~~~~~~~ Brainstorming with "Goodie Bags" ~~~~~~~~
There's nothing more boring than a sterile conference room. Yet, this is where many group sessions take place. To liven the atmosphere, you need a springboard...stimuli to get the ideas flowing.
One way to provide stimuli is to gather miscellaneous items into "goodie bags" and have group members sort through them, writing down ideas as they come up. When I worked as the seasonal Marketing Manager for Nestlé's Sunmark Division Hunter Renfrow Rush Jersey , I used this technique to hold a very productive Easter brainstorm session. I filled the bags with small items I thought may stimulate ideas because of their texture, taste, appearance, ingredients Foster Moreau Rush Jersey , sound, or smell.
