Humanscale’s Horizon LED Flat Light

Humanscale’s Horizon LED task light, a visually striking fusion of form and function, is the first utilization of Thin Wave Technology in a task light. Using a series of high-intensity LEDs surrounding several layers of polycarbonate and optical films, Thin Wave Technology produces an ultra-wide footprint of warm, glare-free 3000K light—excellent for ergonomic illumination and beautiful light in any environment. In addition, Horizon’s built-in dimmer control provides both energy savings and adjustable levels of illumination.
Three new task lights made by the company Humanscale debuted at the NeoCon trade show this week in Chicago, each of them highly-efficient, LED-powered machines made from supersustainable recycled aluminum. Element 790 (above), for example, uses just seven watts of power while outputting the equivalent of 90 watts of incandenscent light. Although one LED bulb in the Element 790 will get you 60,000 hours of light, if that's not enough, Humanscale's LEDs can be easily replaced, unlike other LED lights on the market. The Element Vision, designed by Humanscale's design director Mark McKenna, actually knows when you're not around--a passive infrared sensor automatically turns of when it no longer senses human body heat in the immediate area.
