Following on the phenomenal success of the Warp9 LED and PGL7 LED luminaires utilizing
patent-pending MicroEmitter technology, Kim lighting is proud to announce significant improvements
and expansions to their LED offerings. Beginning immediately, through enhanced optical designs and
improved LED and driver efficiencies, the Warp9 LED and PGL7 LED luminaires are now up to 50%
more efficient than when first launched. Nearly all models boast an overall efficiency of more
than 50 lumens per watt, and the driver now features standard 0-10V dimming interface for
advanced control schemes. All of these added features, and no added cost.Not only are the existing products being improved, but the MicroEmitter technology is moving into some of Kim's most popular products including the Archetype, Structural and Wall Director. Now the newest LED technology is available in the classic shapes that have become the most recognizable site ligthing industry standards. In addition to new products available with MicroEmitter sources, Kim is also now offering HID-to-LED upgrade kits for all existing Archetype, Structural, Wall Director and Warp9 products. So rather than scrapping existing HID site lighting, you can take your existing Kim products and retrofit them with the most advanced LED optical systems available in just a few minutes and at a significant cost savings compared to a purchasing a complete new luminaire.

KENALL WEBSITE UPDATE
Kenall is excited to announce the release of their completely redesigned website. It has been thoroughly researched and designed from the ground up to be among the very best in the lighting industry. Kenall's goal was to create a simple to use site as appealing and inviting to the first time visitor as it is functional for specifiers already familiar with the Kenall line. Kenall kept the best attributes of the existing site while adding features that address the various ways specifiers approach product selection. After investing considerable time and effort researching the best business-to-business website practices Kenall developed a comprehensive site incorporating state of the art graphics and navigation, access to useful information, and even training capability. One of the site's most progressive features is the ability to navigate by both product and project type. Not only can specifiers find information through logical product hierarchies, but also by navigating by the type of project, such as healthcare, education, or transportation, then easily navigate to specific applications within that project type, such as surgical suites, dormitories, or platforms. These project type and application pages contain useful information while also providing easy access to other required and valuable information.
