Mimicking the form of a BR bulb in a downlight, the Glimpse LED maintains the same unrivaled lumen (light) output and top-tier performance that has come to differentiate the company’s LED products, the company said.

Lighting Science Group CEO Jim Haworth said Glimpse LED is fully recyclable and free of toxic hazards, including mercury, and it generates virtually no waste.

The Glimpse’s low profile form adopts to most 5′ and 6′ recessed downlight cans, and transforms it into a high performance LED fixture enabling a reduction of energy usage of about 80% and a life up to 25 times longer than traditional incandescent sources.

Glimpse has the ability to be surface mounted as a light fixture making it ideal for commercial retrofit or new construction applications.
