LED on Advertisement

This is no ordinary LED Display, not that the LED is not stuck on the glasses, they were embedded into the glass with almost transparent connecting wires.

There are roughly three hundred White mid power LEDs with approximately 0.3W each. That is a 90W powder rating and if that is driven by a 5V supply, the current is 18A.

How could a hidden conductor inside a glass to do that? Well, I will take a close look into it...

What I am trying to say that there is a lot of applications for LED on Advertisement. And there will be thousand ways to display the techniology in front of you!

That is the HKIA Rolex AD boutique, the Asian largest with 500 Sq metres shop at the main departure concourse in HK International Airport.

Overused of LED as for Decorative Light

This is a ceiling lighting of a Large Department store in Tsuen Wan District,
They have been using over three thousand cold white K2 LED modules. Its is a new traction for the entrance of the store. It is gorgeous!
However, I am thinking are we going to wrong direction? The main purpose using LED is to cut off extra power consumption and reduce CO2 emission, but this kind of decorative light would easier eat up 3000W of Electricity… and that is a lot of light contamination it may product tons of CO2 to our world.. Well, I think the architect should also think of the right amount of LED lighting, or the intention of Power harvest of LED would become Power Wastage!
Simple way is to apply some Light guides which could then reduce the number of LED modules as much as 60% or more and retaining the same Lighting Effect! Besides, if they use RGB LED , there could be more fun as they can create a lot of gimmick such as mood lighting, light shows...

The LED Man

This Coat consists of LEDs mounted on flex boards joining with control switches, wires and battery cells. Designed by Daves Forbes as he called The LED TV Coat.
There is some gimmicks for this to be used for mobile Advertisement in the street at night.
May be fashion clothing at Disco! I think the power source is an issue.
If 160x120 LED means 19,200 LED, that each consume say each 50 mill watts power. That is a lot of power for lighting up 19K pieces of LEDs, he might need to change battery every 40 minutes. Unless he carry a big storage power, but his idea is niche and eye catching.

LED Globe of Grand Lisboa Casino Macao

This is my 2nd time to visit Macao in the past 5 years, I fond that the Grand Lisboa hotel is so beautiful and Sure that billions of dollars was spent on this building.,
The new Grand Lisboa Hotel was connected with a foot bridge to the old Lisboa Hotel
Which Stanley Ho opened in 1971. The New Grand Lisboa was a design of International architects and interior designers leaded by Khuan Chew who also was the designer for Buri Al Arabs and Four Seasons hotel of Hong Kong.
The property is shaped like a giant lotus flower and opened in 2007 just before Chinese New Year; with 240 gaming tables, 480 slots, and six restaurants.
We could see this new Landmark of Macao with a breathtaking light show from the world’s largest integrated LED screen installed on the Grand Lisboa’s exterior, Ho has clearly upped the ante on his competitors. The LED globe consists of 1.2 millions LED. And 580,000 Swarovski Crystals, and 5,400 pieces of 24-Kt gold plated glasses.
The RGB LED flashed and becoming the local most favourite and glorious Light show from 1800 to next morning, The Lotus shaped like leaves acts as a Knife on top of the entrances would capture everyone including the gamblers entering into the Entrance…
There you can enter and can not come out with the money from the gambler table.. A traditional Fung Shui… On each of the major concourse, you can see water spring that would like to Wash you clean, no one should be able to come out with the money form the Casino. this is only my personal Observations…
As I do no gambles, that mean I am the only Winner in Lisboa casino…

HK Government is Retarding the use of new LED technology!

HK Government is slow in adapting new LED technology. Our Traffic Light is still using incandescent light bulbs... China, Singapore, Japan, Malaysia, Korea, Thailand and Even Manila is using LED on their Traffic Lights.


Hey! Mr. Yau, we are falling behind with other Asian Countries...


This is a new Lantern display in Tsim Sha Tsui, they are beautiful but on the other hand, they are lighted up by Incandescent Light bulbs... Every minutes, they are emission CO2. Of course, they are only about ten thousand Watts I estimate. But this is a show case of the Government to lead us going into the new Green LED energy.

Bulova Computron LED watch

This is a Bulova Computron Diver’s watch built in the early of 1977 I believe, original LED watch from USA. It is a wedge shape as to tell a better light up LED display under the Sun under Bulova Dura crystal. It comes with accurate Compuchron Quartz Mechanism which vibrates at 32,768 cycle per second.

I think this watch was made and assembled in USA by some Semiconductor assembly house for the main board. The challenge was the LED display that was made with precision and using tiny gold wire of 1 mil diameter. Connecting the Cathode of the LED onto the gold plated PCB board, I believe that was done semi automatically.

The Quality was so good that after 30 years, this watch still works perfectly, I think that there are not so many good working samples left behind nowadays, the battery cells are still available, when you push the button, it will display the time and one more time for Date. The case is heavily gold plated to the thickness of more than 20 microns. It Tells time very accurately. I am sure it was very expensive by time they were introduced in the market in the 80’s.
It works perfectly at night. This watch may not be good to ask for time many times day as it will drain the battery fast, it may use up the battery power in just two weeks if you press the Button 5-10 times day!

LEDs in Philippines

Manila Night View

We have not seen much LEDs in Philippines and in fact we do not see many Street lights in Metro Manila too. The Reason may be due to the country’s economic that could support the installation of the enonmous amount of the street lamps.
People has not much concern on converting incandescent lamp into CFL to LED. In the hotel we stay I can hardly see any LED 50% are still using Incandescant lamps and 50% CFL.

In the Hotel that I Stay, the Christmas tree decorative LED is the only LED in the Hotel.

As for LED company, there is almost zero, there is a couple of Japanese OEMs for LED manufacturing in Philippines. So the potential is huge if you want to build LED factory here in Philippines.

The Beautiful Manila is in need more LED lightings!

LED Light up Umbrella and Cooling Fan Umbrella

This Day Shade Night Light serves as a regular patio umbrella during the day, but during that time it also absorbs the sun's rays via some flexible solar panels. A series of flexible light emitting diodes provides light so that you can still hang around on the patio in the dark. The lights are controlled with a switch and the intensity of light can be adjusted depending on your preference.

There is another Umbrella tht has an electric cooling fan top of of it. This would provide a comfortable draft of cold air from top when you walk on the Golf court and or conjested street in Summer!

2010 Asian Games Promotes the Green LED in Guang Zhou

According to the Asian Games Organizing Committee of Guangzhou, in order to further reflect the Asian Games idea of Green Energy Harvest, they will launch LED green lamps at unveiling ceremony scene, boat parade and the City. We believe more then 30% of the 100B RMB has been used in the street renovations, City Infrastructure upgrade, highway maintenance, widening of Narrow Street and building more connecting highways. Some of the 30% goes to the renovation of the 73 stadiums and 15% goes to these 9,000 Street Lamps, and other Decorative lightings. We believe the 2010 Asian Games has been using up 9,500,000 units of LEDs…20% of it goes to the Street Lamps.

Osram Zelion LED for Airfield Illuminations

Osram adds to its product portfolio of LED solutions for the airfield market on 21 Oct 2010.  OSRAM is the first brand manufacturer to offer a robust and flexibly deployable solution for long-lasting and resource-saving airfield lighting of the next generations.
Ever increasing volumes in passengers and freight in global air traffic also raises safety requirements. Efficient and durable LED modules such as Zelion H increasingly gain acceptance in these areas as sustainable and future-proof lighting solutions.

OSRAM called on its years of experience in the field of airport lighting for the evaluation assessments during the development of Zelion H: the standard test programme included operation life tests at maximum temperatures, and ultra low temperature and Humid environment as well as power-temperature cycle tests. In addition to these tests, the Zelion LED modules were also able to prove in the FAA Sinus Test (AC 150/5345-46C) their ability to withstand the severe shocks and vibrations of everyday airport use.

Many applications with just one module, Zelion H covers a wide range of different airfield applications with a single flexibly deployable four LED modules. The availability of two reflector models (6° and 10°) expands the suitability of these LED modules to almost all kinds of airfield lighting. They can be integrated into existing lighting systems by all reputable OEMs and are available in white, red, blue and green light colours.

With a light intensity of 2000cd per Watt, which equals a 75 per cent energy reduction in comparison to a halogen solution (500 cd/W).

Additionally one 48W halogen lamp (24 kcd) can be replaced by only four LEDs with a total of 19W (38 kcd) which results in further saving potentials. Beside energy Harvest, but also has a significant contribution on the airport’s CO2. These systems make another contribution toward lower operating costs: Zelion H modules can be used continuously for up to three years. In terms of durability, this makes them far superior to other lamps, too, because the average service life of a halogen lamp runs to approx. 3000 hours, that of an LED solution to at least 25,000 hours. Imagine the busy airport does not allow the replacement of Failed halogen lamps, under an international airport runway, there might have thousands of such installation, that means that they will have to replace halogen lamp every week one of two!

ABOUT OSRAM

OSRAM (Munich, Germany) is part of the Industry Sector of Siemens and one of the five leading lighting manufacturers in the world. Largest in Europe. World Ranking in terms or Revenue is 2nd in 2009 and 2010. They have manufacturing Plants in Penang.

Cyglo Tyre

Switched using a motion sensor within the tyre, high powered, tough and durable LED bulbs are built into the tread or wall of the tyre and can either flash or be permanently on, When the wheel turns at any speed, a perfect ring of light is formed whilst continually and perpetually creating it's own power.


Manufacturing bicycle tyres with LED lights already built in has significant benefits, not least that pedal cycles become aligned with all road vehicles by having permanent running lights on day and night to maximise visibility regardless of lighting conditions.
