More Choice with Dynamic White Options

Kirlin’s newest release opens up a world of possibilities with our Choice series! We’re thrilled to have expanded of our product lineup, which now features tunable white and warm dimming options across a wide range of Choice series fixtures, including both downlights and cylinders.

With five different versions to choose from, you’re sure to find the perfect match for your space. Whether it’s illuminating a restaurant’s ambiance or creating the ideal lighting environment for behavioral health spaces, these fixtures are tailored to meet your unique needs.

And the Award Goes to…

The Progress Report Awards were announced at the IES Annual Conference in Chicagoland last week.  We’re over the moon to say that we’ve kept our (now 4-year) streak alive!  This award is given to products that showcase significant advancements in lighting and helps shape the future of the industry. 

So what product received the award this year? Surprise! We’ve DOUBLED our awards from the IES this year! Both Hitsville Task Light and the MCL Cove won the Progress Report.

Hitsville

Hitsville has made a marked difference in the behavioral health world. It is the first behavioral health task light on the market to offer an adjustable LED module for precise hot aiming and a flexible mounting position. As the only task light on the market in behavioral health to offer continuous touch dimming on the faceplate, it gives patients a small piece of control over their environment. With 3 field-changeable optics, the fixture is adaptable to different layouts and gives designers flexibility to choose what is needed.

MCL Cove

The MCL Cove light is the only MRI-safe RGBW cove light on the market, providing vivid, saturated colors that can change even during the scan. The fixture, like the rest of the SmartLED MRI family of products, provides all the components to make the fixture function, including a DMX controller with pre-configured color scenes. Both the MCL Cove and the MRL-2 linear slot offer plug-and-play RJ-45 connections for easy installation for the color-changing version.

Previous Winners

INFRALED PRO

In 2020, our INFRALED PRO series won a Progress Report award for several features, including the various sizes that cater to the different needs of the hospital, the ability to change the dimming levels on the remote as well as move the fixture to where it’s needed, and it’s ultra-high CRI of 95+ to ensure quality lighting.

Behavioral Panels

2021 came along, and so did the IES award for our behavioral health scenic panels and white panels. With a robust frame and thick polycarbonate lens, these fixtures are up to the challenge for this demanding environment. Available in surface or recessed mounting, the surface version is the shallowest on the market.

MRL-2 Slots

Not to be outdone, in 2022 our MRL-2 linear slot fixture took home the prize! At 2.5″ wide, you have the option of static white or RGBW color changing. The RGBW version gives the patient a distracting and soothing element in the room. It is also unique in that it has plug-and-play wiring and is the only solution on the market that can change color during the MRI scan!

MRI Undercabinet is Here

LSC-12RSD has DLC Listing

We’re proud to say that our LSC-12RSD surface mounted fixture has made it through DLC certification.  ALA brought us onto a job in the Dallas/Fort Worth area for our super shallow surface fixtures (or the “hockey puck”) but it had one caveat – it needed to be DLC listed.  We worked with the rep and the specifier to figure out exactly what they needed, and got the 3000L version approved. 


Moral of the story: if you need something that you don’t see on our website, please reach out and let us know!

More Power for Symphony

In case you didn’t see it on World Theater Day, the Symphony lineup now includes a 75W 0-10V dimming driver for the SYM-CABNT.  Our 75W driver can power (2) 2500L fixtures or a 5000L fixture from one power supply.  This means you can run more fixtures from the same size cabinet for your next theater, auditorium or worship project.
