Induction Lighting
|
The
basic technology for induction lamps is not particularly new.
The principle of Induction was introduced to the world by the
scientist Nicola TESLA in the 1800’s. TESLA once lit 200 lamps
without wires from 25 miles away. Induction lights are similar
to fluorescent lights in that they use gasses, which once
‘excited’, react with the phosphor that coats the tubes to
produce white light. Unlike fluorescent lamps, induction
systems are rated at 100,000 hours. This is because
fluorescent lamps must use electrodes, which degrade with
time, to ‘excite’ the gasses inside of the tube. Induction
Lamps do not use electrodes but instead uses the principle of
Induction (the transmission of energy by way of magnetic
field). Think of it as wireless lighting.
