ENERGY EFFICIENT LIGHTING
A typical halogen downlight requires 50 Watts of power and the transformer used to convert the 240 volts to 12 volts uses another 10 Watts, hence each halogen downlight uses as much energy as an old fashion 60W globe.
The CP1 downlight utilises controlled plasma lighting technology which uses 10% of the energy, producing 10% of the CO2 emissions and lasting 10 times longer.
The CP1 has manual individual dimming adjustment as well as group dimming.
