852 Bridgelux and 853 Molex have introduced what they claim is the first LED lighting solution designed and priced to drive rapid, mass market adoption of LED lighting technology. At a volume price point at less than US$20 per unit, and a lifespan of more than 10 years, the partners claim the Helieon Sustainable Light Module is one of the industry's highest quality, most cost-effective solid state lighting solutions, and it will change the way LED lighting solutions are used.
