This modular lighting is very UNIQUE. We are interested on the modular lighting, do you have the local contact (in Singapore) to follow up.

The white plastic you see is just an outer shell, hiding the two bent tubes and electronics. The shell opens for tube replacement. At the end of each “leg” is a solid plastic connector, and different shaped covers are available for covering the joints. At the center of the X is a fitting with a steel wire for hanging.

(I was given 9 units by a friend from a lighting company – they will be installed once our conference room has been redecorated…)

re LEDs:

Actually, some of the highest-end LEDs can now match the best linear fluorescents for lumens/watt, the only problem is that it would be extremely expensive to buy enough of them to match the overall output of even a single cheap fluorescent tube. It’s a waste of money to use high-end LEDs behind a diffuser, it makes more sense to use them for spot-lighting and accent lighting where fluorescent lamps cannot be used.

This is an interesting system though, I’m glad to see someone producing creative/artistic fluorescent fixtures. The newest fluorescent lamps have come a long way in terms of efficiency, and color/quality of light, but are not likely to succeed because most people still have the image of the crappy old-school flickery cool white bulbs in their head.
