Isn't it a good job our Prime Minister is so well informed. Low emission
diodes; who'd a
thunk it.
Presumably Nigerians all have eyes like cats.
It's Low Energy Designs of Blandford Forum,
http://www.lowenergydesigns.com/news/light-up-oyo-state/.
It is noted that the project designer never mentions 'low emission' in their
PR. The nearest
they get is that the range 'lowers carbon emissions', As I said, isn't it a
good job the PM is
so well informed....
Once upon a time I had a few dark mode LED's that didn't draw any
current, but I binned them in a clearout.
They could have been worth something one day.
I had to check that you weren't being serious... It was late last night when I
read this.
And when you get down to the nitty-gritty they use Philips Luxeon LED’s or
Sanan dies (DLC). [imported?]
