Get A Grip On Lighting: Unplanned Obsolescence

LED lighting installed in 2015 or earlier is now burning out. And customers are learning there are no retrofit options, so they are looking at expensive upgrades.

Get A Grip On Lighting host Michael Colligan calls the situation “unplanned obsolescence.” As a result, there are few rebates or options to replace the failing lighting. As a result, many distributors are re-thinking work on high-end or complicated lighting projects.

Greg Ehrich, LC is the former President of the National Association of Innovative Lighting Distributors (NAILD) and owner of Premier Lighting, a progressive lighting distributorship.

Michael Colligan is an entrepreneur and inventor. He’s a subject matter expert in commercial and industrial lighting supply, lighting retrofits, and finding recycling streams for hard-to-recycle waste.

The Get A Grip On Lighting podcast on lightED is sponsored by Keystone Technologies.
