Hydrel Flame Lighting

 Acuity Brands Lighting has announced that the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office has granted U.S. patent number 12,215,854, which covers luminaires that can implement Hydrel’s Flame Lighting Technique. Hydrel® is an established innovator and provider of outdoor architectural, aquatics and landscape lighting products. The patent was issued on February 4, 2025.

Flame is a new play on RGBW light.

This unique optical engineering design is currently available with SAF7, SAF14, and SAF28 floodlights in RGBW Quad Tech.

Designers can also select 4000K color temperature for a play on white with a pop of color, creating a sophisticated lighting design while enhancing various architectural elements.

Three Flame lighting techniques may be selected: Narrow Flame, Wide Flame, and Lotus Flame.
