Brightest on the Market (Highest lumens per watt ratio)
The Limelight 3W LED Downlight (280 lumens) is probably the brightest 3W LED Downlight on the market. This is attributed to the fact that they are developed using the highest grade of Epistar-brand LED's. Epistar is a company that is listed on the Taiwanese stock exchange whose LED's are among the most commonly used on the market today. It is important to note that each LED is assigned a grade by its manufacturer. LED products made with high grade LED's will not only be brighter, but have a longer lifespan as well.

Wider Beam Angle
A big advantage to this downlight is that it provides a beam angle of 120 degrees - giving you greater coverage, a more evenly distributed light (no spots as with smaller beams), and additional light where other light beams overlap.
Zero Comebacks
The comebacks on this item is virtually zero. Our resellers claim that in terms of comebacks and quality, we surpass even the biggest companies on the market such as Osram and Philips.
4 Year Guarantee
We have over the past few years become so confident in our product, that we have decided to provide the longest guarantee in the country. This means that if this item is defective at any time within 4 years, we will provide you with a free replacement.
Highest Lumens Per Watt
Generally, people erroneously compare LED pricing based on wattage. This is a very unwise thing to do. You will often find that our lights are even brighter than others with a higher wattage. The fact that we always strive to give you the highest lumens per watt often results in us providing you with the lowest price per lumen as well. However, this is not always easy to achieve because the quality of a lightbulb is not only determined by the light output (lumens), but on various other factors such as housing, driver and other materials.
SMD LED's
- There is a whole range of benefits of SMD LED's (as opposed to DIP or high-power LED's):
- They give off very little heat
- High Brightness - high lumens achieved from such small sizes (sizes: 3014, 3528, 2835, 5630, 5730, 5050, etc)
- Longer lifespan - attributed to the fact that they give off very little heat
- Low light decay - light output of LED's decreases with time (called light decay). SMD LED's are known to reduce this substantially to around less than 5% in 1000 hours of use
- Take up less space
- Have low voltage and current requirements
- Limelight LED Downlights contain 2835 SMD chips which are not only smaller, but are brighter as well. Each LED produces 23-25lm. They also have their own built in heatsink which promotes dissipation of heat
Why LED?
- Saves You Money - LED lighting can save you in excess of 90% on your lighting bill
- Very long lifespan - LED's and their drivers can last for many years. For example, the above LED downlight has a 40000 hour lifespan - at an average use of 4 hours per day, this downlight can last you up to 27 years.
- Various light colours - they are available in warm white (3000K), pure white (6000K) and natural white (4500K) unlike some other technologies
- Higher Lumen Output - they are sometimes brighter (depending on wattage, LED brand, LED grade and LED driver)
- LED's generally operate at lower temperatures compared to other types of lighting
- Ideal to use with batteries and solar panels due to their low current draw
- No hazardous substances - Unlike fluorescent lighting or CFL's (compact fluorescent lights), they do not contain any mercury or lead
- Not susceptible to breakage - even if they fall, the light source or LED does not easily break. Dropping an incandescent bulb will almost definitely cause it to stop working
