New Lighting Industry
Powerweb, Inc. has been developing state-of-the-art lighting technology and electronic lighting control gear for over 15 years.   Powerweb's engineering team has an extensive knowledge in lighting ballasts, lighting controls, and solid state lighting drivers. Powerweb has several patents in these lighting controls and lighting control gear fields. Powerweb Technologies is currently working on an advanced LED solid state lighting project that will integrate colored LED controls with new polymers and optics. Powerweb works closely with multiple manufacturers in the lighting and lighting controls market.

Osram Sylvania
Powerweb has worked extensively with Osram Sylvania. Osram Sylvania, the largest electronic ballast manufacturer in North America, has worked together with Powerweb in testing and developing various lighting control solutions in the marketplace. Powerweb has worked with Osram Sylvania specifically with a new line of low power dimmable ballasts called Powersense. The Powersense ballast is a 0-10V dimmable lighting system that utilizes the same power than standard low power non-dimming electronic ballast systems.

Powerweb Technologies has several patent pending designs for a state-of-the-art wireless turnkey intelligence package for the lighting fixture and electrical ballast market. This package is currently being sold to lighting ballast manufacturers and fixture manufacturers. This evolutionary Omni-Link™ design incorporates an intelligence package that enables these manufacturers to derive new value from their existing lighting products.

At the core of all lighting products is the electronic ballast that drives the lamp in most lighting applications. Traditionally, ballasts have been magnetic with less electronic interfaces. According to the Lighting Controls Association, in 2001, the electronic ballast surpassed the magnetic ballast in total unit sales volume, the culmination of a trend that had been years in the making. Electronic ballasts, in fact, had already surpassed magnetic ballast in dollar sales volume in 1995. According to the U.S. Economic Census, in 2002 electronic ballasts represented 57 percent of all ballasts shipped in the United States, and 69 percent of dollar volume. Considering that electronic ballasts comprised only 14 percent of units shipped and 34 percent of dollar volume in 1992, the rapid ascendance of this technology is remarkable. Dating back to 1986, electronic ballasts sales were weak, representing just 0.6 percent of units shipped -- which, is about half of where linear dimmable electronic ballasts are now.

Powerweb Technologies believes that intelligence in the lighting market will define new energy efficiencies as well as provide manufacturers the ability to differentiate their products from their competitors. The lighting business has traditionally been a commodity-based business with low profit margins.

Powerweb Technologies is currently working with several ballast and lighting fixture manufacturers, such as Westinghouse Lighting Corporation in order to integrate Omni-Link™ into their product lines.
