Plenty of power in a small package

In contrast, LIGHTTOOLS offersplenty of power in a small package. Its compact system width of onlyapprox. 100 mm guarantees thesought-after discreet look in ceil- ings. Sophisticated, specially deve-loped reflector technology enablesthe use of CDM-TC/HIT-CRI G 8.5 lamps. These miniature metal halide lamps can be fitted in a spotlighthousing which has a diameter ofjust 95 mm without any problem. They combine compact size withastonishingly high luminous effi-ciency and a long service life. When it comes to accent lighting, LIGHT-TOOLS sets new standards and theefficiency of LIGHTTOOLS does not depend on conventional light sources. Until now, lighting channel sys-tems have suffered from the disad-vantage that, because of theirdimensions, they were unable to really satisfy all lighting require-ments. They were either too narrow(70–80 mm) to accommodate powerful spotlights (usually QR- CBC 35) offering sufficient luminousflux for effective accent lighting, orlighting channels wide enough (145 mm or more) to accommodatespotlights with effective lamps (QR 111) dominated a room to such an extent that they were unsuitablefor unobtrusive recessing into theceiling.
