We’ve embraced LED’s for coolness, energy saving and manageable, clean white light For night exteriors covering large blocks this is outstanding… I think.

Sounds good. Amazing data if verified in real terms.

“95% efficiency improvement”

Beam width is below:

Technical data

Nominal luminous intensity 20,000 cd at day mode ––and 2,000 cd at night mode

Light colour white––

Beam width 3 deg vertically and 360 deg ––horizontally

Operating voltages 230 V––ac

350 W day mode, 100 W in night mode

So, this whole article is meaningless fluff as far as energy efficiency is concerned.
