Shine Brighter, Comply Smarter – LM-79 & LM-80 Testing with EVTL India

In today’s competitive lighting industry, simply manufacturing LED products is not enough. With energy efficiency, product durability, and compliance taking center stage, businesses must ensure their lighting solutions meet international standards. That’s where LM-79 and LM-80 testing comes in — and EVTL India stands as your trusted partner in navigating this critical step.

What Are LM-79 and LM-80 Standards?

Before diving into the importance of testing, it’s vital to understand what LM-79 and LM-80 standards entail.

LM-79 is a testing standard established by the Illuminating Engineering Society (IES) that defines how to measure the performance of solid-state lighting (SSL) products. It evaluates factors like luminous flux, electrical power, efficacy (lumens per watt), and chromaticity (color characteristics).

LM-80, on the other hand, is used to measure the lumen maintenance of LED light sources over time. It assesses how much light the product retains after extended use — a critical factor for product lifespan and reliability.

Together, these two standards ensure that LED products are not just energy-efficient but also reliable, consistent, and safe for end users.

Why LM-79 and LM-80 Testing Is Crucial

In a market flooded with LED products, these tests serve as a mark of trust, quality, and regulatory compliance. Here's why they matter:

Regulatory Requirement

 Whether for BIS certification, ENERGY STAR ratings, or other international approvals, LM-79 and LM-80 are often mandatory testing standards. Meeting them ensures your product can be sold legally and confidently in both Indian and global markets.

Market Credibility

 Products that pass LM testing standards are seen as superior in design and performance. Distributors, retailers, and end consumers look for these certifications as an assurance of long-term reliability.

Reduced Return Rates

 LED products with certified performance metrics are less likely to fail prematurely, reducing warranty claims and customer dissatisfaction.

Enhanced Brand Value

 A brand that offers tested and compliant products earns more respect and loyalty. Over time, this translates to higher market share and customer retention.
