LOS ANGELES, Nov. 25, 2011 /PRNewswire/ --
WHAT: | First Philips Lighting brought LED light bulbs to your home, and now they are bringing it to Los Angeles with the Philips LED Light Experience, a fun, educational and free interactive mobile exhibit. The Philips LED Light Experience will provide hands-on exhibits for visitors to explore what LED light can do for their homes and see firsthand where science meets style- with light bulbs. |
Consumers can learn how LED bulbs are made, what makes them so different, as well as getting great tips on how to make their house brighter and "greener," with energy-saving, long-lasting white-light AmbientLED bulbs from Philips. They can also learn designer tips on how to use long-lasting AmbientLEDs to give the home a "lightover". One lucky fan could win the Philips Home Lightover Sweepstakes- a one-day consultation from a professional home designer plus $5,000 in cash towards the purchase of Philips AmbientLEDs for their own home 'lightover' by registering at www.ledlightover.com! | |
Also, people who visit the tour stop can log-in to SCVNGR, a mobile game platform to take part in quick, fun challenges to win rewards, such as a SCVNGR badge, Philips LED keychain flashlight or a t-shirt. | |
WHY: | Consumers are eager to learn for themselves the benefits of LED lighting technology and the Philips LED Light Experience shows them firsthand the comparison - side-by-side - of the quality of the new, energy-efficient LEDs vs. standard incandescent bulbs. The interactive mobile exhibit provides an inside glimpse into the inner workings of the industry-changing Philips AmbientLED A19 bulb, which consumes just 12.5 watts - or 80 percent less energy - than the standard 60-watt incandescent bulbs they were designed to replace. The new Philips AmbientLED A19 will also last 25,000 hours, or 25 times longer than the standard incandescent. |
This fall, the interactive mobile exhibit will make 44 tour stops in 16 U.S. cities at retailers, trade shows, festivals and other events. For a complete listing of dates and locations, visit http://apps.facebook.com/LEDRoadshow. | |
