Both products feature the world’s highest-level color rendering (CRI>90) and high luminance with long life time (10,000 hours, LT70). This excellent balance of specifications is well suited for lighting applications. In addition, due to Panasonic’s sightnangular dependence technology, the panels keep their color uniformity regardless of the viewing angle. The panels have an efficiency of 26~30 lm/W and the modules approximately 17 lm/W.

The OLED lighting devices are available in three colors, including daylight white which is in high demand in the Japanese market, to meet the needs of the lighting applications.
