LED hot cold thinking: small power market chaos who?

As we all know, the biggest advantage of LED is energy saving and long life. For small power lighting, including lamp lamp, track lights or even 30 watt basic heat dissipation problem can be solved, that is to say LED products have no what big problem in small power.

However, due to market competition, the chaos of the small power market chaos, not only uneven quality, the price is a mess, the most direct example is the price war LED T8 tube.

Figure: LED T8 tube price war

The first is not the initiator of evil now these two protagonists, but those who seize the market price in order to survive and then wilderness lakes, attract some cheap packaging factory to follow the trend of intervention, bigwigs did not mind, think of these low quality products will not survive long, however, the moth fought final sales finally let bosses uneasy in front of sales and sales over the bottom line of the bottom line, there is now a price war!

PHILPS (Jinsha River is not holding after the sharp sharp business?) Said to be 20 dollars or less, or even lower than a mountain lighting lamp lighting, a mountain is not weakness, immediately put the price down to 10 below the lamp; PHILPS, you don't like? LED industry has always been to show people a cheap Sen more than I immediately said not resigned to playing second fiddle, a mountain lighting is also low 1, or even a general always claimed the stick to quality also bear the loneliness to lose money and said some mountain lighting shopping, it is for IPO? Cheap killer to help even directly to the price set to 6.8!

These prices are market prices, dealers have a profit, right? Manufacturers can not always lose it? Such a tear force war will not have an end? CREE recalled about 700000 lamps in the United States, OSRAM recalled 55 thousand, because there are fire hazards and safety problems, they are big international names, and it is 20, 30 dollars a lamp, the lamp China is selling a piece of more than $! I really hope that these manufacturers do better than CREE, OSRAM, no fire, safety issues.

Figure: in August 26th, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) and CREE (Cree) jointly announced the recall of LED high China shed light produced in 2 models, the reason is the glass lens LED lamp may be broken and fall, leading to injury risk.

Figure: in August 25th, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) announced that due to the risk of overheating, melting or possible burns, about 55 thousand OSRAM LED fluorescent tube is being recalled.

If the price is because of technological progress, improve the efficiency and cost reduction made, we certainly welcome the hands in the air, but you look at the way some manufacturers, small size chip with small plant, instead of gold wire, copper aluminum bracket bracket, fluorescent powder glue, all use the cheapest! Power supply with the cheapest device, program, the substrate with the cheapest fiberglass board, plastic shell, with glass! Power supply stability? Regardless! How to do the substrate heat conduction? Disregard! Shell heat how to do? That's all The thermal conductivity of the glass is 1.1W/m.k, the plastic is 0.3 W/m.k, while the extruded aluminum is about 237 W/m.k!

In such a price, the power supply uses only the cheapest solution, the worst components, let alone what power efficiency, power factor, harmonic content! These power must not be certified! In this price, is definitely not a high efficiency lamp bulb, so the heat generated by the electric energy of about 70%--80% how to escape? The heat scattered out, beads, capacitors and other devices quality itself is not good, even the most basic life are difficult to protect, and the lamp light will soon! Really worried about their life, really worried about their manufacturers!

Figure: news from late August: not a bomb will explode, LED lamp can also be. Customer feedback is a cheap source of spontaneous combustion.

Some manufacturers may secretly laugh: too young too simple! We do not cheap lamp to make a product, we are going to cash flow, pressure on suppliers, distributors, and even received full payment in advance, we just have tens of millions, hundreds of millions of cash flow, the cash flow, we can make money in the stock market and real estate!

That we are more worried about the upstream and downstream, in case of loss? What if the money runs out? Kodak, Motorola, NOKIA will collapse, China's lighting companies will not collapse? LED industry collapse of the enterprise is still less? Running things less? We are too lazy to say such a thing, we are very clear!

This product warranty? No problem, just a year! However, LED's life will be one year, in addition to the waste of social resources, what is the point? High quality LED can be 3 to 5 years or even longer, can realize energy saving and emission reduction, but the production of inferior beads, glass, plastics, electronic components are needed for energy consumption, environmental pollution, the production of these products is inconsistent and energy-saving emission reduction, production of these products is real energy saving and emission reduction!

In contrast with the domestic manufacturers is reckless CREE, has always been known for its high quality and they have to recall in the United States 700 thousand tubes, said fire hazards exist, these manufacturers do not know China is better than the level of CREE was higher than the industry, not only the price
