For backlighting information and entertainment displays
Bent
lamps with fewer lamp-ends improve efficiency of liquid crystal
displays. Fluorescent lamp-ends consume valuable power, generate
heat, and cause shadows. They require lamp holders and must be
concealed. One U-lamp can replace two straight lamps, eliminate
two lamp-ends, and provide the same amount of light with less
wattage. There is less wiring as well as fewer dark ends and lamp
connectors to be hidden.
These
benefits increase proportionately with multiple-bend lamps. Ballast
design and dimming circuitry is simplified with fewer lamps and
the display area can be made larger in comparison to the overall
case size.
Sub-miniature
fluorescent lamps are engineered and manufactured with the most
advanced state-of-art technology. In addition to being able to

lamps for all popular laptop computers, LCD Lighting is able to
provide almost all replacement wiring harnesses, connectors, heaters,
and heater assemblies. (See Lamp Sub-Assemblies)
