December 16, 2013
Revolution Lighting Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:RVLT) (“Revolution Lighting”), a leader in advanced LED lighting technology, today announced that its Seesmart brand has been selected by the U.S. Navy’s Military Sealift Command to supply Lewis and Clark class T-AKE dry cargo/ammunition ships with 17,000 Seesmart two and four foot LED tube lamps. Seesmart’s DLC-listed LED tube lamps are manufactured in Simi Valley, California and designed to be a direct replacement for fluorescent tube lights, offering maximum light output and energy savings. QuaLED Lighting, a woman-owned small business based in Scottsdale, Arizona, is the Revolution Lighting distributor on the project.
Military Sealift Command is the leading provider of ocean transportation for the Navy and the rest of the Department of Defense, operating approximately 110 ships daily around the globe.
“We are honored to support the U.S. Navy on this project to implement our high-quality LED tube lamps and drive significant long term savings,” said Robert V. LaPenta, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Revolution Lighting Technologies. “This project is one more example in a growing list of large-scale installations across a variety of public and private organizations and institutions. We look forward to additional projects with the Navy, as well as other military branches and government entities.”
In line with the U.S. Navy’s requirements, Seesmart’s LED tube lamps are light weight and extremely durable, require virtually no maintenance, and have a long life expectancy.
