Linmore Expands Revolutionary, Patented LED Lighting Technology To Outdoor Street and Area Applications

LifeTime LED^® reduces the time required to renew an outdoor light from 30 minutes to 30 seconds using exclusive “plug-and-play” modules.

FRESNO, Calif. — Linmore, an American lighting and controls innovator, is advancing the state of lighting technology to LED 2.0 with its LifeTime LED series of commercial and industrial lighting fixtures. It’s newest outdoor products – EverWay Roadway Streetlights and EverSite Area Lights – deliver exceptional outdoor lighting performance in dramatically new fixtures featuring exclusive “plug-and-play” modules that enable 30 second light swaps.

Using patented plug-and-play ReLuma^® Modules, LifeTime LED outdoor street and area lights reduce the material, labor and landfill costs associated with replacing whole fixtures. The technology simplifies routine renewal, reduces maintenance complexity and minimizes downtime. Depending on application and maintenance assumptions, some projects realize lifecycle savings up to 70 percent. LifeTime further reduces landfill waste by repurposing or recycling used ReLuma Modules.

“Since the mass adoption of LED lighting more than a decade ago, the industry has followed a replacement model in which integrated fixtures are removed and replaced at end of life,” explained Paul Chamberlain, Linmore President and CEO. “However, while LED technology improved energy efficiency, it never addressed what happens when systems reach end of life, including not just the time and labor to replace the fixtures, but also the waste involved.

“LifeTime LED introduces a game-changing approach, employing patented ReLuma Modules that allow lighting to be quickly and easily renewed while extending the life of the outdoor fixture.”

Wes Fannin, Linmore Director of Strategic Sales & Innovation and inventor of the ReLuma Module, described the new technology as a “do-over” and an unprecedented opportunity to advance LED lighting to the next level. “In its excitement to realize the many benefits of LED lighting, the industry made the oversight of not treating LED lighting fixtures as infrastructure. As a result, most LED lighting fixtures have become landfill waste. Our patented technology changes that model and offers a practical path toward a more affordable and sustainable future.”

Changing the Lifecycle Economics of the Lighting Industry.

The modular LifeTime LED design integrates LED diodes and the driver into a single removable unit. When renewal is required, the module can be replaced while the fixture remains in place. In most outdoor applications, modules can be replaced in under half a minute through a simplified plug-and-play approach that reduces disruption and service time.

John Gilmore, Linmore Chief Revenue Officer explained, “As first-generation LED systems begin to reach end of life, government and private-sector organizations face increasing costs tied to labor, downtime and material disposal. In fact, some industry projections estimate that 800,000 to 1 million tons of LED waste could enter landfills annually in the coming years.

“As an example, Los Angeles’ 230,000+ streetlights are 98% LED, and nearly 10% of them – 25,000 lights – are reported as non-functioning on a typical night, according to the Bureau of Street Lighting. With LifeTime LED, the city needs to only replace the light engine at a dramatic time, cost and land waste savings,” says Gilmore. “Imagine that potential on a national scale.”

The new LifeTime LED technology is already being applied across multiple indoor lighting configurations, including troffers, door kits and strip lighting, and is now bringing the same critical benefits to outdoor applications, including streetlights and area lights.
