Dim-to-Warm is COB LED which works like halogen lamp when dimmed. Its specialty is that when you dim it the color temperature gets warmer. Usually dimming does not affect the color temperature of the LED. Dim-to-Warm LED imitates the effect of the halogen lamp which gets warmer by dimming. With full power you can get color temperature 3100K and at lowest 1850K.
Dim-to-Warm LED suits especially highly for decorative luminaries, for example used in restaurants, hotels, cruise cabins and home interiors. It’s perfect for space where you want to have dimmed and warm toned atmospheric lighting.
LED has great advantage compared to an incandescent lamp. Its power consumption is less than 10% of the incandescent lamp’s power consumption.
The color temperature of candlelight, incandescent and halogen lamp.
There are seven different packages from 900 to 3000 lumens. You can download more information about the product here.
Where and how to use?
Dim-to-Warm LED is great for places where you want the light that dims like halogen or incandescent lamp. You can use it for example for restaurants, hotels, cruise cabins and decorative luminaires where you have been using halogens before.
It’s easy to use. You can use Dim-to-Warm LED for all the luminaires where you have been using COB LED or you can use it to replace led modules. All optics, lenses and reflectors that are compatible with COB LED, suit also for Dim-to-Warm LED. LES area is CLC20-series for 9,8 mm and at CLC30-series for 15,2 mm.
How Dim-to-Warm works?
As we know, usually LEDs don’t change the color when you dim them. They always retain approximately the same color temperature when the brightness is reduced. LED’s brightness depends on the current; reducing the current the brightness reduces.
Dim-to-Warm LED is made from cold and warm LED areas. It has an internal control circuit which dims the cooler area first and later starts to control current of the warm one. The color temperature gets warmer when dimmed. This way the dimming works similarly in incandescent or halogen lamp.
The diagram below shows how the color temperature gets warmer when led is dimmed down and the current and brightness reduces (black color). You can also compare it to halogen lamp (grey color).
Dim-to-Warm is a COB LED, so you don’t need any complicated special features from the driver, like two-channeling or programming features. Ordinary triac dimmable driver is enough. We have tested ELT’s DLC-drivers with it, and they have good compatibility.
