Author: SSLDesign News Staff

August 31, 2010... Burger King opened its first energy efficient restaurant in early June in Waghäusel, Germany, with LED lighting technology from Everlight Electronics Co., Ltd. According to Everlight and Burger King, the parking area is illuminated by six 60 W SL-Dolphin street lights in neutral white with Phoenix lighting pattern. The SL-Dolphin street lights feature a luminous flux of about 6,000 lm and a color temperature of 5,000 K. The asymmetric wide view angle ensures high uniformity at pole heights of 6-8 m. Everlight points out that this uniformity makes the SL-Dolphin ideally suited for parking and roadway applications.

Everlight says that existing SL-Dolphin lights are now being shipped with a patented electronic ballast developed and produced in Germany. Everlight boasts that the ballast excels with various dimming options and has a life span up to eight times longer than other LED street light solutions or conventional street lights. Everlight also touts the ballast's a high temperature protection mechanism and outstanding efficiency of 93 percent.
