COLOR KINETICS INTRODUCES iCOLOR COVE QL
Popular iColor Cove® product line evolves to meet broader application needs
Boston, MA - December 22, 2004 - Color Kinetics Incorporated (NASDAQ: CLRK), a pioneer in the design, marketing and licensing of intelligent solid-state lighting systems and technologies, today introduced iColor® Cove QL- a newly designed replacement for its popular iColor Cove product, featuring the same high standard of quality, a sleek fixture design, and light output rivaling that of iColor Cove at a lower price.
Cove lighting remains one of the most common applications of intelligent solid-state lighting today, and iColor Cove has long been among Color Kinetics' most sought-after offerings. iColor Cove QL is an enhanced, lower-profile, 12" (30.5 cm) unit with the same beam angle (110° x 40°) of its predecessor. Applying Chromasic™ technology, it has the capability for self-addressing, which translates to simplified installation, addressing and programming. Chromasic also lowers the cost of digital LED control, thereby lowering the cost of the overall system.
From large-scale commercial installations to simpler residential applications, Color Kinetics has the optimal cove lighting solution to meet diverse design requirements. Intended applications include accent and alcove lighting, exhibit and display lighting, signage and other confined or concealed spaces that call for saturated color and dynamic effects. The newly evolved product line now includes:
iColor Cove MX Powercore - the highest-intensity member of the product line with Powercore™ technology for ease of installation and operational efficiency. It boasts more than double the intensity of original iColor Cove, and provides uniform color mixing with maximized output to vibrantly fill alcoves and accent spaces. The compact, 12" (30.5 cm) unit has a 100°angle, and its integral mounting bracket allows for simple 180° rotation in 10° increments, directing the output as desired. Alternatively, a snap-in mounting track is available for linear installations.
iColor Cove NXT - casts a wide beam angle of 120° for seamless distribution of vibrant, uniform color with deep saturation. It is designed for projects that require wider beam distribution, or require the fixture to be installed in a set, non-aimed position. It is also well suited for backlighting or other applications that call for uniform color mixing at a closer range. It is available in two options; iColor Cove NXT 12" (30.5 cm) and iColor Cove NXT 6" (15.2 cm).
iColor Cove QL - the new enhanced, Chromasic-based replacement for iColor Cove. It measures 12" (30.5 cm) in length, and produces a 110° x 40° beam angle. It features a mounting clip that allows for 180 rotation and in-line power and data connections that further streamline installation.
iColor Cove EC - the most affordable, lower light intensity member of the product family. It applies Chromasic technology, projects a soft-edge strip of light at a 120° beam angle, and has a sleek, low-profile housing. It offers an easy through-hole mounting feature and in-line power and data connection, reducing installation cost and time. Alternatively, a snap-in mounting track is available for linear installations. It is available in two options; iColor Cove EC 12" (30.5 cm) and iColor Cove EC 7" (18 cm).
iColor Cove QL is now available. Digital images are available upon request.
