Light Emitting Diodes, commonly called LEDs, are illuminated by the movement
ofelectrons in a semiconductor material. Unlike ordinary incandescent bulbs, LEDs are
extremely efficient, don't have a filament that will burn out, and virtually last forever.
LEDs are small, lightweight, and encased in ahard epoxy, making them virtually
indestructible. LED technology isadvancing rapidly to produce longer-throwing, bright–
er, whiter and more efficient light sources. All of the LEDs used in Princeton Tec's
products are the highest quality available

ly bright and efficient. This single LED emits asmooth, powerful, white light

useful for awide range of tasks. Princeton Tec uses collimators or reflectors
with the Maxbright LED depending upon the application.
ULTRABRIGHT LED

The Ultrabright LED is bright and efficient. The smooth, white, wide-beam light

emitted byUltrabright LEDs is ideal for close to mid-range tasks. Ultrabright
LEDs are usually grouped together to offer a more powerful light source.
Advances currently underway will continue to improve the efficiency and
brightness of Ultrabright LEDs.
LED OPTIC COLLIMATOR
A collimator gathers all available light from an LED in the form of scattered
(jSj)
rays and re-emits the light as parallel rays, making itmore optically efficient
LED OPTIC
than a standard reflector. Princeton Tec calibrates each collimator to the type
of LED and application of each light. With proprietary optimized collimator/lens
systems, Princeton Tec continues to advance LED technology.
REGULATED LED/CONSTANT BRIGHTNESS
A
Princeton Tec lights that feature regulated LEDs have a sophisticated regulating
M:1W
circuit that maintains initial brightness as long as the batteries have sufficient
r
voltage. Traditional lights are very bright initially, but immediately begin to dim''
and continue to dim until the batteries are drained. Constant Brightness is a
term used to describe products that have regulated LEDs.
The light output of Princeton Tec lights ismeasured in lumens. A lumen is
unit derived by the International System ofUnits (SI) for measuring light
output.
DIMMABLELEDS
Dimmable LEDs provide the precise output needed for agiven task, and help
conserve battery power for maximum efficiency.
HEATSINK TECHNOLOGY

Princeton Tec's proprietary ultralight heatsinks protect LEDs from

overheating. Even though LEDs operate at much lower temperatures than
^ ™
traditional incandescent bulbs, they still generate heat. If this heat is not
dissipated, the LED will suffer irreversible damage. By using heatsinks,
Princeton Tec lights can burn at extreme brightness levels for long
periods of time. The heatsink may be incorporated internally or externally
depending on the product and its application.
WATERPROOF RATING SYSTEM
Princeton Tec has been designing lights that are compatible with thewater for over40
years. Our lights are rated according to the International Electrotechnical Commission
(IEC) standard.
rated lights are designed for water resistance to splashing and quick dunkings.
If a light with a IPX4 rating isaccidentally submerged for a longer period of
time, the batteries should be removed and the cabinets should be carefully
inspected for signs ofbattery leakage. Ifwater has entered the housing, the
light should be dried and batteries replaced.
rated lights provide waterproof integrity down to 1 meter for up to 30 minutes.
IPX8
rated lights provide waterproof integrity for conl
depths down to 100 meters. Lights that conforr
100m
referred to as diveable.
