Transcript of Four options to be considered by local councils
Four options to be considered by local councils, seeking to switch to
LED Street, Road and Highway Lighting
The following has taken me 4 years and 4 months to share this with you
and your organisation
OPTION ONE Converting existing HPS Lantern Head lamps to a LED Corn lamp with separate ballast
The four LED Corn bulbs with a separate
Meanwell (Taiwan brand) Driver to
replace existing 70, 150, 250 and 400 watt
HPS lamps with separate Ballast.
Specifications
Code Ref: WH-YM-B3-28W, 38W, 80W and 120W 50,000 hr life, Five year warranty on the Meanwell Driver Power factor: 0.95. CRI 80. IP rate IP63. AC 85-265 Volts Lumens: 2,800, 3,800, 8,000 and 12,000 Colour, from 2,700K to 6,000K
Ex works prices + shipping from China
1. 28 watt $48.75. 2. 38 watt $59.00 3. 80 watt $127.00 4. 120 watt $161.00
OPTION ONE
continued Driving around Dorset, which includes Bournemouth and Poole during the day,
looking upwards towards the street and road light lantern heads, shows that many are
not very old, while some are very old, or already replaced with a complete new LED
lantern head fixture as seen across Bournemouth (Bmth) you cannot service.
Option one, has to be the lowest cost when replacing a HP sodium lamp and ballast,
subject to the space inside being suitable for a larger size CORN lamp.
The driver of these LED lamps, replaces the Ballast of the HPS lamp, separate to the
lamp its self.
The LED CORN design incorporates the same high powered SMD chips, as embedded
into the all in one LED street light fixture as seen across Bmth
The existing reflector behind the diffuser cover will add to the overall light supplied by
the CORN lamp, not just from the SMD chips directing downwards as seen in Bmth.
Unlike the all in one LED street lights being promoted by manufactures/importers to
councils, the existing street/road lanterns we have come to live with for over 50 years,
the CORN LED lamp replacement provides a similar overall light quality.
OPTION TWO Option two, is to disconnect an existing
street/road light lantern and transfer to
a workshop to be serviced if not past its
sell by date.
If there is a 20 year life left in these
Lantern heads , employ a person to
dismantle all the HPS parts and clean up
the unit.
Its already been proven that an LED
Corn bulb can be installed with the
separate driver replaced the HPS ballast
These refurbished LED lanterns can be
re instated in one road or street, so they
all look the same.
A another option is to offer these
refurbished street/road light
lanterns to other councils or export
to African governments who are
desperate to reduce its lighting
energy costs.
OPTION THREE- A Replacing the old Lanterns to a NEW one, but with a LED CORN lamp
Model: HGG-SLO20 Model: HGG-SLO18
Die Cast Aluminium with a separate Gear department. The optical reflector enclosed behind the Diffuser cover is designed to increase the overall light quality and beam angle.
The two Lantern sizes we have selected to except the 4 sizes of LED CORN lamps are:
70 x 31 x 23 CM for HGG-SLO 20 model and 60 x 28 x 22 CM for HGG-SLO18 model
Ex Works prices ( for those looking to assemble the LED Corn bulbs in the country)
1. HGG-SLO20 model $48.00 2. HGG-SLO18 $34.00
OPTION THREE-B
Continued
Option two B, is the delivery of the completely NEW traditional HPS Lantern Head
with the pre-installed LED Corn lamp and Driver to current UK electrical standards.
The following prices covers all the assembly costs to what ever the requirements are by
the buyer. Test samples are also available from $220.00 including FED EX delivery.
Eric Hawkins, will personally oversee the assembly and re-wiring up of the electrical
parts to British standards and packing, prior to shipping.
Model WH-YM-B3-28W/SL018 $94.28 (£65.00 complete Ex works + shipping)
Model WH-YM-B3-38W/SL018 $106.00 (£73.00 complete, Ex works + shipping)
Model WH-YM-B3-80W/SL020 $200.00 (£137.00 complete, Ex works + shipping)
Model WH-YM-B3-120W/SL020 $238.00 (£164.00 complete, Ex works + shipping)
The light colours available are from 2,700k to 6000k
OPTION FOUR • The current revolution happening
across the world, is the change over to LED street/road lighting started by China.
• Prices have now fallen to a level, where pay back is just a couple of years.
• Prices can be as low as $90.00 + shipping, always with a 50,000 hr life expectancy (12 years)
• The only thing to remember, when looking to specify these types of LED lamps, is YOU cannot service them.
• The day these stop working, be prepared to have a budget in place, to replace them, what ever the cost may be at that time.
• In order to get the scrap value back, all the electrical parts have to be separated from the aluminium heat sink casing.

lantern from $220.00
DECISION TIME To all the councils of the United Kingdom looking to cut street/road lighting
electricity costs, look beyond your traditional preferred manufactures, to
smaller innovation businesses as mine, to gain a full understanding about
today's LED lighting choices, beyond just street/road lighting.
After 15 years being involved in all aspects of energy saving technologies
from 12 volt LED lights to what is available today (with the past 4 years
visiting many manufactures in China and exhibitions) I am now 100%
convinced that the most cost effective lighting solution for every country in
the world. My advice is to stay with the traditional lantern head, but
installed with a LED screw in replacement BULB.
If I had not been asked by the Lagos State Electricity company in Nigeria to
source a replacement LED bulb for a HPS bulb, while keeping the lantern
heads, I would have followed what the LED industry in China is mass
producing as the only answer to replacing millions of HPS outdated
street/road and highway lantern heads.
If you decide to go for the all in one, throw away LED Lamp, add into the cost, the cost to separate the electrical parts from the metal parts to meet the WEE directives
