Customers Tout Superior Benefits of Cyberlux Aeon LED Lighting Product for Kitchens and Baths
RESEARCH TRIANGLE PARK, N.C., Oct. 4 -- Customers and homeowners for Cyberlux Corporation's (BULLETIN BOARD: CYBL) Aeon under-cabinet task lighting in kitchens and baths are delighted with the performance of the LED solid-state lighting product and appreciate an alternative to the drawbacks of conventional lighting.
"I have customers who adamantly dislike using florescent lighting in their kitchens," said Don Gross, owner of Wine Country Kitchens in Sonoma, Ca. He first saw Cyberlux's Aeon product at the Kitchen and Bath Show in Las Vegas last May. "I was immediately thrilled that a company finally brought lighting in the 21st century."
The Aeon products bring solid-state lighting into the residential and commercial market for use in closets, cabinet interiors, under-cabinet lighting and kitchen counters. The Aeon task and accent lighting products are made with solid-state, light-emitting diodes and do not require bulbs. The result is a product that is maintenance-free, cool to the touch with long- lasting energy-efficiency.
Gross said California's Title 24 energy efficiency regulation effectively limited choice to fluorescent lights as the primary lighting source in kitchens and baths. The Aeon Pro E product, with energy efficiency levels of 55 lumens per watt, exceeds the 40 lumen per watt requirement of Title 24 mandate for kitchen and bath lighting. It also comes with a 15-year guarantee that the lighting elements will not need to be replaced.
"I was excited that someone came up with an alternative to fluorescent lighting -- but not simply an alternative," Gross said. "It is a superior lighting solution. The Aeon provided the qualities that I wanted, and that my customers wanted. It can be set on low, medium and high levels of intensity, and because of its sleek, thin fixture, it requires a much less intrusive trim line rather than the thicker trim line that is needed to block a direct view of a fluorescent light. It simply looks better when installed."
Gross described fluorescent lighting as hazy. "Fluorescent isn't a clean, crisp light like halogen or the solid-state LED light. The Cyberlux light quality duplicates the halogen quality without the drawbacks that include very high heat. The Aeon light is cool to the touch, and the 15-year guarantee against replacement of the lighting elements is unheard of with conventional lighting," he said.
Gross said that he sells three lines of cabinetry and is always concerned about providing high quality components. "I want components that please my customers and that I don't have to worry about a couple of years down the road. This fits the bill," he said.
Gross worked with Cyberlux technical experts to find electrical components that enabled him to customize the installation. "The customer service from Cyberlux has been excellent," he said. "Working with Cyberlux has been a very positive experience."
Gross is part of the Aeon sales network of dealers and lighting industry professionals who meet a range of criteria including their market reach, years in business, annual revenue, customer base and their ability to effectively represent Aeon products with Cyberlux solid-state lighting technology.
