Anomax Invents a Super Energy Efficient 100-watt LED Light Bulb That Uses Only 12 Watts of Power

PENANG, Malaysia, Jan. 11, 2012 /PRNewswire-Asia/ -- Anomax invents a revolutionary 100-watt LED bulb that uses only 12W of energy. Compared to today's most energy efficient 100-watt bulb (CFL Compact Florescent Light at 23 watts) Anomax's bulb is 48% more efficient!

Anomax's super energy efficient lights pair their patent pending IPCHS™* substrate technology (a low cost metal-core board with circuits directly plated on alumina) with off-the-shelf LED diodes. Anomax names this break-through technology LMR™ for Light Made Right.

H.A. Chan, Director of Anomax, states, "Today's LED bulbs' bottleneck is their extremely low heat transfer (3W/mK) board that overheats the LED diodes and greatly lowers the light output. That's why brighter than 60-watt LED bulbs exist only in R&D labs and are very expensive to produce. The very high thermal transfer (30 W/mK) of IPCHS™ enables efficient power-to-light conversion, improving energy use by almost 50%."

An independent R&D lab report reads, "LMR™ 100-watt bulb's total power consumption is only 11.9W with a total light output of an incandescent 100-watt bulb. IPCHS™ has good thermal performance and is very good." The LMR™ bulb performance is also verified and confirmed by an external ANSI/TUV/UL accredited lab.

In comparison, 90W of a 100-watt incandescent bulb is wasted producing heat. A 100-watt CFL uses 23W but contains harmful mercury in fragile glass-tubes that breaks and inevitably introduces mercury into our food chain. A 100-watt LMR™ bulb uses only 12W, HALF that of a CFL and as an LED-based light, LMR™ is totally Green. At other light-output levels, LMR™ bulbs consistently use only half the energy of CFLs.

Energy savings pay for the LMR™ bulbs in about 2 years. More importantly, each 1% reduction in the world's electrical usage is the equivalent of the energy output of 23 nuclear plants. With LMR™, everyone can conveniently contribute in a big way toward a greener world.

Anomax has completed production runs of LMR™ 100-watt 12W bulbs and seeks a partner to produce these lights in high volume for the consumer market.
