Australian LED designers Brightgreen have reshaped a number of lighting tools and condensed them into one that fits inside your pocket.

Featuring devices that calculate savings and customise plans, the first official Brightgreen iPhone app is designed as a practical tool that helps make lighting easier.

“We created the Brightgreen App in the hopes that it would enable people to make educated lighting decisions,” says Brightgreen chief executive and head product designer David O’Driscoll.

One main draw of the app is its retrofit calculator, which shows cost versus savings per month and projected ROI tailored to your lighting specifications. The calculator also takes into account Government rebates that are available in NSW and Victoria.

Also housed in the Brightgreen App is the lighting planner, presenting lighting designs for you in less than a minute. Simply input your room type, its size and the amount of reflectivity, and the app will determine the amount of lights needed to meet the appropriate brightness, or lumen count, in the room.

In addition to its tools for homeowners, the Brightgreen App also offers lighting suggestions for commercial settings. Facility managers can ensure that their buildings remain OH&S compliant by generating lux levels recommendations that meet Australian standards (AS 1680).

All of Brightgreen’s award-­‐winning products are featured on the app with easy-­‐to-­‐view technical information including lumen output, wattage, beam width and CRI rating.

Finally, a list of all of Brightgreen’s distributors is also included so you can find your nearest stockist and complete your retrofit or new installation easily and hassle-­‐free. The Brightgreen App is free to download for a limited time from brightgreen.com/app or directly on your iPhone from the App Store.
