Illumitex – Product Failures On The Rise

Illumitex – Product Failures On The Rise

LED modules produced by Illumitex are seeing a high failure rate, and with the company letting go all of its senior staff, one must wonder how much longer the company will be around.   The Surexi and other colored Illumitex LED modules have flaws that can only be fixed with another round of large VC funding.  Will investors take another risk on Illumitex after they have blown through 50 million dollars of funding without making a small dent in any of the lighting industries main sales channels?

Some Illumitex customers have been left holding a large amount of financial burden with no potential for reimbursement or warranty replacement.   “If you have experienced large qty failures, they just put the ignore button on and leave you to deal with the mess” stated one Illumitex customer.  “Simply the worst customer service I have ever dealt with in my entire professional career”, states another.

The above photo of failed Illumitex Surexi LED modules were extracted from EPOXY.   This is a $2000 investment lost.  Making any investment into a lighting fixture produced by Illumitex could mean you will lose it.

Much of the propaganda spread around from new LED upstarts such as Illumitex is all hype and not factual information.   There are no less than 5 LED platform providers that far outperform the Surexi LED module.  These platforms are from manufacturers that are financially stable, not from a startup such as Illumitex relying on venture capital funding.

Why buy EnviroLux? – Our Product Advantage:

We pride ourselves on our commitment to quality. You can see it in the way we build our lighting fixtures. What makes our product better than the competition’s? Consider this:

  • We use only top quality materials to manufacture our lighting fixtures, including A360 aluminum ingot.
  • Our fixture housings contain more material than our competition’s. This means the fixture is sturdier, an important consideration when it is hanging, wired, from a ceiling, but even more importantly, this means our fixture will have a lower operating temperature than a thinner fixture, which is key to preventing capacitor failures occurring from internal temperatures reaching or exceeding 90°C.
  • All of our screws, clips, and fasteners (both external and internal) are stainless steel with nickel-plating rather than cadmium plated, making them rust resistant and durable.
  • Our gaskets are silicone, which means they won’t burn like other materials will.
  • Our molded Borosilicate glass lenses are manufactured for superior thermal shock resistance and clarity.
  • We use Lexan 243R or Bayer 2407 for our Polycarbonate lenses, which offers the highest UV and temperature ratings available.
  • Our reflectors are pure aluminum (99.4%) for better photometry and lumen output, and thicker for better shape retention and durability.
  • We use DuPont powder for our powdercoat finishes because of its superior UV resistance and durability.
  • Our fixtures have a chromate conversion coating applied prior to the powdercoat painting process. This nine-stage process increases the corrosion resistance of the housings, which prolongs the life of the fixture, while it also provides an excellent bonding surface for the paint, which in turn prolongs the life of the finish.
  • We own our U.L., files used for domestic and International markets and all of our products comply with these strict standards. We have taken these standards and applied them to all of our   outdoor lighting products.

When choosing a vendor for quality induction lighting products (Induction Wall Pack Fixtures, Induction Flood Fixtures, Induction Canopy Fixtures, Induction High Bay Fixtures), be extremely careful to do your due diligence.  Many of the industries upstart induction lighting companies offer an extended warranty that is double the life of the technology (10 years).  Almost every one of these companies have only been solvent for just a few years and make false claims that the life of their induction fixtures and systems are 100,000 hours.The truth is that the lamp life of an induction lamp is 100,000 hours but the induction generator life is 50,000 hours.  Most of these companies making false claims all purchase from the same popular vendor in China (http://www.jkyaming.com/proservi.html).  Simply compare the induction lighting fixture photos in your potential vendor’s literature against the website photos of the Chinese vendor who offers a 5 year warranty and realize that a 10 year warranty from a barely solvent US based induction vendor is very risky.

You the customer can rest assured that when you purchase an Induction lighting Product (Induction Wall Pack, Induction Flood, Induction Canopy, Induction High Bay), that has the EnviroLux name on it, that you will receive a proper warranty of 5 years from the date of purchase, from an established producer of induction lighting fixtures for over 15 years.

Induction Lighting – EnviroLux Induction Retrofit at The James Center

Induction Lighting products from EnviroLux – a name you can trust – Since 1989

Richmond VA -

The James Center in Richmond Virginia has just completed their parking garage renovation by upgrading their lighting system from 150 watt HPS canopy fixtures to the EnviroLux 80 watt Induction Garage Lighter Series.   The total system wattage for a 150 watt HPS system is 188.   The total system wattage for an 80 watt EnviroLux Induction Garage Lighter is 86.   That is an energy savings of 102 total system watts per fixture.  With a total of 655 fixtures retrofitted, that equates to a total of 66,810 watts saved.  With the fixtures being on 24/7, the payback on investment will be very quick.  The quality of light between the old and new is clearly night and day.

Illumitex – Great Technology But Will The Company Stay Solvent?

Illumitex Surexi

Illumitex Surexi

Illumitex, the Austin, Texas company, founded in 2005, raised $3.4 million in debt and options in December of 2007, publicized a $10.5 million B round in 2008, and in October 2009, Illumitex obtained $4.3 million in equity, according to an SEC filing.  Recently in April of 2012 Illumitex received an additional 9.5 million of financing.  Overall, Illumitex claims it has raised over $50 million dollars in venture capital.   Investors listed on Illumitex’s filing include Dan Watkins at DFJ Mercury, and Forest Baskett and Jimmy Treybig at New Enterprise Associates. New Enterprise Associates and DFJ previously invested in Illumitex.

Illumitex has been able to shrink the number of components in its LEDs by forgoing the use of secondary optics that lead to the dome shape devices commonly found in other LEDs.  In addition, the company has been able to develop LED chips that can still emit bright and precisely aimed beams in smaller packages, while the smaller package saves space and allows lighting system makers to squeeze more of them into an installation.  In 2011, the initial IESNA testing for the Illumitex white light Aduro product failed to meet IESNA testing requirements.  The company had a monumental setback, causing key management people to leave the company after top management decided not to reveal the negative results to its investors.  A redesign of the Aduro ARRAY from a 600×600 micron die to a 1 mil die has improved the performance.  The Surexi and colored AD44 ARRAY products are still produced on the 600×600 micron die and unfortunately see many failures in OEM fixture production.   All ARRAY production is sub contracted out to two factories in Asia (NAKUS in Korea and ETO in Malaysia).

Illumitex sought out OEM fixture manufacturing in late 2010 from EnviroLux, an industry leader of OEM fixture manufacturing based in Washington State.  Initial designs from Illumitex including the Eclipse horticulture rail failed to meet proper thermal requirements.  EnviroLux developed the Pro Rail design to properly manage the high junction temperatures of the Illumitex ARRAYs.  In late July of 2012, Illumitex could not meet delivery requirements for new orders or replace failed product, causing EnviroLux to seek out more reliable producers of quality LED modules such as CREE, Bridgelux and LG Innotek.

Illumitex has failed in its attempt to claim market share from OEM manufacturers to engineer lighting fixtures produced around their technology, so Illumitex has recently announced several new fixture products of their own, but it remains to be seen whether Illumitex will be able to win large customer orders and continue in a market where competition has intensified, particularly from Asian manufacturers.   Although the price for LED lights have declined, it hasn’t fallen quick enough for mass adoption.  Investors are becoming impatient, and money invested into Illumitex from venture capital firms are evaporating.   Too date, all of the original management team at Illumitex have been replaced by new staff that are struggling to keep the company solvent.

The LED lighting market hasn’t grown as quickly as some investors and tech developers have hoped.   This coupled with the new technology being introduced rapidly from more well known and established names in the industry such as Cree, Bridgelux and LG Innotek, have really dampened the initial high expectations Illumitex projected for their technology.

The teamwork of QSSI-EnviroLux-Illumitex will be introducing the world’s greatest LED Grow Lights at this year’s Indoor Garden Expo (October 21-23). We are making available to the retail industry, the technology that has become so popular with the world’s largest horticulture companies.

We are pleased to include in this email a press release issued yesterday by Syngenta, one of the world’s leading horticulture companies with more than 26,000 employees in 90 countries.  Syngenta’s financial commitment to this LED grow technology is an un-parraled endorsement of any artificial grow light available today and speaks volumes of just how effective this LED technology is, for accelerated and healthy plant growth.

LED Grow Lights by EnviroLux.  The best LED grow light on the market, no comparison!

Built in RGB optics allow our EnviroLux LED Grow lights to control 80 percent of their LED photons for maximum PPF (Photosynthetic Photon Flux).  Standard LED modules require secondary optics and can only control up to 28 percent of their photons.  Standard LED modules are not RGB and cannot produce uniform wavelengths of light optimum for plants.  Our LED modules are IP66 weatherproof and EnviroLux LED grow lights are IP67 weatherproof and can used in and around environments with heavy moisture (complete rainstorms!).  Led Grow lights by EnviroLux are available at authorized distributors (http://www.globalhardwarestore.com/).

One tomato plant with 700 tomatoes underneath one of the many EnviroLux LED Grow Lights now available.  EnviroLux is the leader in the horticulture industry for LED Grow Lights.  We are an OEM lighting manufacturer established in 1985.  We are the largest OEM lighting contractor supplying worldwide companies with OEM fixtures and components.   We operate 6 US based manufacturing facilities and 3 worldwide based manufacturing facilities across the globe.  We produce the most innovative lighting products in the world, including LED grow Lights.
