Phillips Industries now offers an LED version of the Permalite fluorescent dome lamp. It provides up to 100,000 hours of light in the most extreme temperature conditions (from -50° to +180° F). The lamp incorporates a 6-diode in-line pattern, which provides whiter, longer lasting and more consistently diffused light than that of incandescent alternatives, Phillips says.

The new lamp is identical in dimension to the original Permalite and incorporates universal mounting holes for easy installation and/or retrofits. Phillips uses a polycarbonate material for the LED housing, making it light and highly impact-resistant. The lightly frosted polycarbonate lens specific to Phillips dome lamps is said to disperse a softer ‘glow’ that is easier on the eyes.
