[Greenbuilding] Philips L-Prize Lamp

[Paul Eldridge]

Well, after a four month wait I finally received my L-Prize lamps, and I 
have to say that I'm completely blown away by the quality of the light 
(2700K colour temperature and a 92 CRI).

On the left, we have one of the new 9.7-watt L-Prize lamps, and to its 
right, an earlier generation 12.5-watt EnduraLED:

Two of the L-Prize lamps replace 42-watt Philips Twister CFLs that I had 
used for flood lighting:

This is the front of our house, post retrofit; with the change-out, this 
portion of the load drops from 84-watts to 19.4:

In addition to these two up-lighters, there are seven coach and one post 
light fitted with 2-watt Philips EnduraLED BA11s:

Altogether, our exterior lighting load is now just 35.4-watts, or less 
than that of a standard 40-watt incandescent.

Paul
