Thorn’s Quattro LED has recently been updated to benefit from the latest LED
light sources, which are fitted behind a low-glare optic. The lamp achieves
over 76 lm/W, and is over 80% more efficient than the fluorescent technology
it replaces.
Compared with conventional gear, Thorn’s high-frequency (HF) electronic
control gear, with an energy-efficiency index (EEI) classification of A2, can
cut electrical energy use by as much as 30% and also reduce parasitic power
when the Quattro T5 luminaire is off.

The innovative optical design in Thorn’s Champion floodlight includes a zero cut-off light guillotine
and an efficient elevated glass. This optical design improves output by as much as 10% while achieving
industry-leading light nuisance control.
The small, modern Thorn Oracle S takes advantage
of the latest white light sources and efficient sealed
optics to maintain optimum performance.
