In 2007 CREE announced
that its XLamp® LEDs would light up campsites around the world in
Coleman® lanterns, flashlights and other outdoor lighting products.
The
Coleman Company, Inc., one of the best-known manufacturers of lighting
products and outside gear, is designing Cree’s new XLamp XR-E and XR-C
power LEDs into all of its LED-lighting products.
“Coleman is converting all LED-based products to the Cree XLamp LED due to
Cree’s advanced technology, common package size within the entire XLamp
LED family and excellent support,” said Traci Willing, Coleman product
manager for battery lighting. “As we roll out Cree LED-based lanterns,
headlamps, flashlights, spotlights and specialty Exponent® products, we
believe our customers will be thrilled with the brightness, runtime and
overall performance of these new models.”
“We’re delighted that
Coleman has selected Cree XLamp LEDs for its new LED lighting product
lines,” said Norbert Hiller, Cree vice president and general manager
for lighting LEDs. “Campers and outdoor enthusiasts worldwide can now
join the LED lighting revolution.”
