13. Scotopic vs Photopic light – color rendition can be more important than measured light level Scotopic vs Photopic light – color rendition can be more important than measured light level Raise your color temperature, but dont mix Raise your color temperature, but dont mix Be careful in application of LEDs – exposed sources are extremely bright and can be harsh Be careful in application of LEDs – exposed sources are extremely bright and can be harsh LEDs claim very long lamp life, but it is the driver that fails first – design of heat sink is critical LEDs claim very long lamp life, but it is the driver that fails first – design of heat sink is critical Smart bi-level technologies dont gain full benefit in high traffic areas Smart bi-level technologies dont gain full benefit in high traffic areas Outreach and education is critical before you change users environment Outreach and education is critical before you change users environment Lessons Learned LED 141 watts 8400 lumens CRI 75 HPS 300 watts 21000 lumens CRI 22 Lighting Retrofits
