Satellite heat control technology helps keep a new design of Light Emitting Diode (LED) desk lamp extra cool, extending its life to 37 years, says its inventor, Jake Dyson. Son of the cyclone vacuum producer James Dyson, Jake Dyson says LED lights should last for life.
The CSYS light sets a new standard in environmental performance according its developer, Jake Dyson.
The secret is heat pipe technology, borrowed from the electronics industry, where tiny copper pipes with a vacuum inside are used to remove heat from computer components.
The lamp, which gets its name from the CSYS coordinates on a designers electronic drawing board, moves smoothly through three axes, staying where it's put.
[Jake Dyson, Designer of CSYS light]:
"A lot of effort is being put into the optics of LED products and a lot of effort is being put into the electronic drivers and unfortunately there hasn't been the same amount of impetus into the thermal management of the chips, which happens to be the most critical thing about LEDs."
Heat pipes are able to remove heat at the same speed at which it is generated.
Dyson's design incorporates a heat pipe into the structure of his lamp, keeping the LED bulbs at a temperature of 131 to 140 degrees Fahrenheit.
Often LED light manufacturers are content with products running at more than 194 degrees.
[...]
Dyson expects more than 160,000 hours of continual use, or 37 years at 12 hours use a day.
[...]
His CSYS light on the other hand requires no replacement bulbs and contains no mercury, reducing its environmental impact.
And at only 8.8W, it is five times more energy efficient than a comparable halogen bulb.
[...]
The CSYS LED light will sell for around $850.00
Dyson says his bulb will save consumers a substantial amount on replacement CFLs over a 37-year period.
