Cree Showcases New Residential LED Downlight

Author: SSLighting Design News Staff

January 21, 2010... Cree's new 6-inch LED downlight, the CR6, for the residential market was showcased this week at the 2010 International Builder’s Show in Las Vegas. Cree says that CR6 LED downlight takes the technology at the heart of the LR6 family and redesigns it to deliver maximum value for residential lighting. The CR6 downlight, planned for availability in mid-2010, is being designed to meet Energy Star criteria and for an end user price of approximately $60.

“By delivering the beautiful warm light created by Cree TrueWhite™ technology in an affordable, energy-efficient LED residential fixture, we’re providing consumers with an alternative to energy wasting incandescents and the poor color-rendering of compact fluorescent bulbs,” said Neal Hunter, President of Cree LED Lighting. “There is no residential LED downlight on the market today that can come close to matching the value and performance of the CR6. This product builds on the success of the award-winning LR6, which has shipped more than 350,000 units to date.” Company News Release
