Eneref Institute Hosts LIGHTFAIR Discussion: Shielding LEDs With Reflectors

Online, May 9, 2011 (Newswire.com) - PHILADELPHIA, PA - Eneref Institute will sponsor an LED luminaire discussion during LIGHTFAIR 2011 examining the use of reflectors in luminaire design to shield the LED light source. The 45-minute discussion, entitled "Let's Bounce: LEDs + Reflectors", is a continuation of a report published in the January issue of LD+A magazine (Lighting Design and Application) by the Eneref Institute examining the use of reflectors in luminaires in commercial retrofit applications.
