Read First before you decide : The Risk of Using LED Lighting if you are not aware
|
1. EU authorities ban dozens of LED products
2. Philips recalls potentially dangerous GU10 LED lamps
This is just the tip of the Iceberg.
In fact, Ai has been helping End Users and Major European branded Manufacturers customers repairing and upgrading China and Major branded LED Lighting due to defective, inexperience design fault, low quality and low performance LED and non-LED lamps.
Need more information on LED Light Safety and reliability, consult Ai first on various important issue before deciding or come to Ai to see the difference in actual comparison.
Ai are the pioneer in LED Lighting design and manufacturing before you even heard of any major brand barely started making LED. Ai is at least 2 to 3 years ahead of major brand start to make LED, less to talk about LED Light made in China. |
Why Ai? (Only for those who choose to look beyond the cycle of traditional boundary)

|
"Appliance Innovation" abbreviated "Ai", pronounced "I" in English and in Chinese '愛' with a heart built on the foundation of the letter "M" which stands for "Manufacturing or Make". In 1994, I started 2 companies, "Appliance Innovation Pte Ltd" and "Appliance Manufacturer". A few years later, while deciding what website name to use, "ai" and "aipl" were quickly taken up by URL brokers the moment they knew you are interested in the URL, so I chose "ai-m" quietly with a taboo in my religious concern as "I am" is a "reserved word" for the "I am who I am". So in revere, I asked for permission from the one who called himself "I am who I am". Within 7 days, a new home user customer contacted me and wanted to come to my house to meet with me to discuss further business. In our discussion, I told him the main aim of all our product design was to show people as a brand name: "This is The Way" things should be done and not in the other way which does not serve any beneficial purpose for the user ultimately. Instead, he told me he got a dream, a night before, seeing me very happy walking towards a banner written, "I Am The Way". This is where "www.ai-m.net" started with the Logo carrying a heart with the word, "Ai M THE WAY" which was finally digitised by another customer who came to me a few years later to start a business from our support to him beyond business norm.
To date, we have 3 official websites
- www.ai-m.net
- www.ai-ledlight.com
- www.ai-control.com
Why "ai" or abbreviated with "ai-" as an identity? Ai is not just our identity but is unique not because we want it but because we were made that way as we continue to grow since 1988 in season beyond our plan.
As you walk with us, you will find many things that we are unique as many of our customers had found and expressed beyond their common belief and some with admiration of the way we can do it. Basically, we are founded thus guided by a culture beyond the traditional boundary and ahead of time. (Eg. in 1979, 20 years well before the Government started talking about R&D and getting people to think out of the box etc.)
3 days ago, I chanced upon a new version of a popular song in the 60's which you may have heard before but is very unique in the way you may not have traditionally thought of, can be found in "www.ai-m.net" may somewhat or best illustrate who we are and how we do things and to what extend we go to help customers to achieve their goals beyond normal business means. We always stand by you not as customer but as friend for a long long time in helping you to achieve life goals and breakthroughs in the way they should be. We do not treat customer as king but we treat customer as close friend with your best interest in mind. The threshold to make it happen is your choice when you understand this culture.

What is LED?
|
|
LED stands for Light Emitting Diode (not to be confused with LCD - Liquid Crystal Display)
We are inspired when we started to encompass this emerging LED business in year 2003 and we coined it as "Light Eliminate Darkness". And Truely it is, much better and brighter than any other light that were made by men.
LED is commonly used for light indicator purpose due to its low power low brightness limitation.
But now, LED teachnology achieve breakthrough in high power and brightness surpassing HID lighting and now has become the most efficient lighting in the 21st century.
LED has entered into the lighting class
|
|
Why LED Lighting?
|
|
Lighting that used LED Technology is the most efficient light so far
It enables us to save energy up to 90% over incandescent and halogen lamp. For fluorescent and HID lamp, LED lamp can achieve the saving up to 80%.
Normal LED life span is known to be about 100,000 hours but for Lighting class LED, the life span is known to be around 50,000 to 75,000 hours.
So compared with incandescent lamp which is less than 500 hours, halogen lamp less than 2000 hours and fluorescent lamp between 5000 to 10,000 hours, LED Lamp lasts 100 times longer than incandescent lamp, 25 times longer than halogen lamp and 5 to 10 times longer than fluorescent lamp. That means, it is something like maintenance free which save maintenance cost on labour and parts.
Finally, it produces less heat thus save air-conditioner energy.
Other benefits include, fast turn-on and can be made easily to be compatible with other energy saving technology without sacrificing the lighting life span especially vulnerable to fluorescent lighting and impossible for HID Lighting.
On safety and environment aspect, LED is still the best.
OK, one last point but not final yet, LED can be dimmed and color changed at will where most old type of lighting (incandescent, halogen, fluorescent, HID etc.) cannot or too expensive to do ...... without sacrificing life span.
Please visit www.ai-m.net or email to inbox@ai-m.net to find out more in detail about its benefits and how to achieve more beyond standard application.
LED Lighting is not just an investment based on ROI as many cost conscious financial professionals look at it just on the $$$ saving aspect but it is a necessity for those who are objective oriented to advance forward and for those who understand its many benefits and application.
LED Lighting is contemporary and is also the Light of the future now with good ROI than any other lighting energy saving solution, such as using electronic ballast on fluorescent or solar energy solution with their ROI typically beyond 4 to 30 years.

Most LED Lightings I have seen is not brighter than the existing Light, so Is LED Lighting bright enough?
|
|
Most LED Lighting in the market are imported from China or Taiwan. Mostly, they compromise brightness because of pricing, technical and after sales support issue.
Ai LED Lightings are developed and manufactured locally in Singapore. We do not compromise proformance, as such Ai LED Lighting are typically 20% to 40% brighter than existing Lighting if not the brightness is the same as the existing lighting. This has been Ai Standard for Ai LED Lightings
|
|
Can LED be dimmed using existing wall dimmer?
|
|
Yes, Ai developed LED Lighting can be dimmed using conventional wall switch dimmer from 1W up to 300W without rewiring.
Ai LED Remote Control Dimmer Wall Switch can also direct replace existing manual type wall dimmer up to 1KW without rewiring. This option can be found in the 'Automation / Lighting Control' section in this website under 'LED Lighting' Page.
