USA - The new MR16 3W LED lamp from Acclaim Lighting is billed as "an effective way for commercial lighting users to pull the plug on skyrocketing energy costs". A high-efficiency LED-powered lamp, the MR16 3W was designed as an energy-saving replacement for halogen bulbs in standard, low-voltage MR16 fixtures.

The MR16 3W can fit into most standard MR16 12V fixtures with a GU5.3 base, like those commonly found in buildings, hotels, restaurants, retail stores and displays.

"There are an enormous number of MR16 12V fixtures out there - in everything from elevators to cruise ships. Retrofitting them with our new MR16 3W LED lamp can save building owners and commercial establishments a ton of money on their energy costs," said Eric Loader, director of sales for Acclaim Lighting.

"LED technology has advanced to the point where it's now a viable replacement option for halogen lights," added Loader. "As energy costs continue to rise at an alarming rate, you can predict there will be a big trend toward LED retrofits in the future."
