PHILIPS PHI TrueForce Core LED HPL 30-18W E27 840 mate

The PHILIPS PHI TrueForce Core LED HPL 30-18W E27 840 matt is a direct retrofit solution for conventional 30W high-pressure mercury (HPL) lamps, offering substantial energy savings without compromising on light output. Unlike traditional HPL bulbs that waste energy as heat and contain mercury, this LED replacement delivers 2500 lumens of cool white light at just 18W, reducing energy consumption by 40% while eliminating hazardous materials. Its frosted finish ensures uniform, glare-free illumination, making it ideal for industrial, retail, and outdoor applications where reliability and low maintenance are paramount.

Highlights

• Energy-efficient: 18W LED replaces 30W HPL, cutting energy costs by up to 40%.
• Long lifespan: 25,000 hours L70/B50, reducing replacement frequency and maintenance.
• Mercury-free: Environmentally friendly with 0mg mercury content.
• Instant start: Reaches full brightness in less than 0.5 seconds.
• Wide beam angle: 300° for broad, even light distribution.
• High switching durability: 50,000 switching cycles for frequent on/off operations.

In daily use

Designed for hassle-free operation, this lamp works directly with existing E27 sockets and 220-240V mains, requiring no rewiring or external drivers. It performs reliably in temperatures from -20°C to +45°C, making it suitable for both indoor and sheltered outdoor fixtures. The cool white 4000K color temperature enhances visibility in workspaces, while the >80 CRI ensures accurate color rendering for tasks that demand precision. With a power factor above 0.5, it maintains stable performance even in large installations.
