Revolution Lighting Technologies, Inc., Stamford, CT, said the U.S. Navy has certified its 2-ft T8 LED tube for the military standard for use in the U.S. Navy fleet. The certification gets Revolution an official part number that can be used throughout the fleet to order its LED tube.
Certification by the U.S. Navy is the culmination of a rigorous testing and review process by naval engineers per U.S. Navy guidelines. U.S. Navy ships will now be able to purchase Revolution Lighting’s certified LED tube through the standard U.S. Navy supply chain.
The certification opens the door for Revolution to provide this LED tube to the international maritime market, including foreign navies and the cruise line industry, where energy efficiency and sustainable practices are an increasing focus for cruise ship patrons and operators.
