LightTube is ideal for architectural lighting applications. They are festoons of SELV miniature incandescent lamps inside flexible polycarbonate tubes. A choice of 12.8mm diameter or 6.4 x 8.0mm profiles means that they can by incorporated into the smallest details. They can be utilised for a variety of decorative uses including chandeliers, but they are particularly useful for a gentle wash of light above a coving, or for backlighting a panel or mirror etc. Lamp life of over 25,000 hours means this is effectively a no maintenance solution. 12.8mm diameter LED LightTube offers life in excess of 50,000 hours with vibrant colours and even lower heat.
