Lighting Science Group to provide LED lamps for Home Depot
Lighting Science Group, Satellite Beach, Fla., will manufacture a broad line of LED lamps for Home Depot, Atlanta. The company will provide A19, PAR38, PAR30, PAR20, MR16, and G25 LED lamps that will be marketed by Home Depot under the Ecosmart label.
To ensure performance and reliability, the Ecosmart LED line was tested under the rigorous LM-79 process by an independent laboratory approved by the U.S. Department of Energy’s CALiPER program. The lamps are said to have an estimated payback period of one to two years, and range in retail price from $18.97 for an A19 and MR16 to $44.97 for a PAR38. All of the bulbs are available on Home Depot’s web site and in stores nationwide.
