GE Lighting now has a light-emitting diode replacement for the 100-watt incandescent light bulb. The new bulb packages 27 watts of input power in a standard "A-19" bulb shape.
The GE Energy Smart® 27-watt LED bulb incorporates proprietary synthetic jet technology that was enabled by GE's collaboration with ecomagination Challenge winner Nuventix, creator of LED cooling technologies for energy-efficient lighting, Ge said in announcing the new product.
GE plans to have the 27-watt bulb on store shelves in the U.S. and Canada in the first half of 2013.
GE's existing portfolio of LED bulbs includes a 13-watt LED (60-watt incandescent replacement) and a 9-watt LED (40-watt incandescent replacement).
