Portable lighting market development and stability, the LED light source into a new hot industry development

Portable lighting is refers to the small volume, light weight, have a certain mobility of lighting products, generally for a hand-held electronic lighting, belongs to a branch of lighting industry, occupying the indispensable status in modern life. From the point of development, portable mobile lighting product development can be traced back to the early stages of the development of human society - — The primitive society. Since human society simulated flight mobile lighting has experienced from the fire, oil, the development course of candles to light. Mobile lighting experienced countless change, appeared the torches, oil lamp, candle, kerosene lamps to the incandescent light bulb flashlight, hid xenon light bulb flashlight, development to the present range of LED flashlight, emergency lights, miner's lamp, headlights, etc. Both daily life and work, and industrial production, engineering construction, road traffic, etc. , portable lighting has a very wide range of applications. Its development mainly driven by the following two factors: disasters caused social problems, power of threats in recent years, natural disasters and society all over the world. For example, the Indian Ocean tsunami in 2004, 150000 people were killed and hundreds of thousands of people homeless. 2005 south Asian earthquake, leading to more than 300 ten thousand people are homeless; The 2010 Haiti earthquake, 110000 people were killed and more than 300 ten thousand people became refugees; The Japanese tsunami in 2011. Natural disasters also poses a great damage to the disaster area electric power facilities and other public facilities, power facilities is paralyzed, to the disaster areas poses a great obstacle of emergency relief work, the shortage of electricity to the disaster area People's Daily life has brought great inconvenience, portable lighting lamps and lanterns is used to supplement the power supply after disasters measures for the quick work of disaster relief and maintain the basic daily life lighting plays an irreplaceable role, portable lighting lamps and lanterns has gained wide application. Outdoor sports in the developed countries has developed rapidly, run a small portable lamps and lanterns USES the European and American countries developed economy, with good natural environment and people yearn for a healthy lifestyle, outdoor sports has a broad mass base, the development of outdoor industry provides the fundamental motivation. According to research released OIF report 'The Active is suing Recreation pa', according to The Outdoor products in retail sales in 2006 reached $46 billion. According to the journal of the wild, the European outdoor industry from 2001 to 2006, the average growth rate of 7%, its growth rate higher than the same period Europe's overall economic growth rate. Along with the widespread dissemination of outdoor lifestyle, public spending habits to outdoor products is also gradually changing, outdoor products have many styles, good quality and performance and appearance fashion and so on characteristics, more and more cognitive and loved by consumers. As a result, people in daily life will also choose outdoor products. Portable as part of the outdoor lamps and lanterns, show the chaoyang industry rapid development momentum. At present, as the global shift production base, our country has become the international important production base of portable lighting products. In 2010, China has reached 20 portable lighting products production. 1 billion dollars, exports more than 800 million dollars. The following table shows the output change trend of portable mobile lighting products in China.

can be seen from the chart, since 2007, the portable lighting industry in China has always remained stable development situation, stable output increases. After 2011, with the speeding up of the global economic recovery, the humanistic ideas of further attention, whether for daily use and store emergency relief or personal outdoor sports, portable lighting products will further expand the market, to 2015, the output is expected to reach 32 portable lighting products in China. 3. 2 billion dollars. It is important to note that as the phasing out of traditional light source products, new LED light source product price down, application of LED light source of the portable lighting products will significantly increase the proportion of total product, become a new hot spot of the development of the industry. LED light source compared with the traditional light source, energy saving, environmental protection, high efficiency, stability and other characteristics, in the use of mobile power, portable lighting application can effectively increase the working hours of lighting equipment, to reduce the product weight, to make it more mobility. But subject to the LED chip prices in the past, the LED light source in the application of portable mobile lighting equipment remains to be improved, the following table shows the 2006 to 2010, the permeability of LED light source products in portable lighting equipment in our country:

especially with the mature gradually since 2008, the LED industry, LED light source price gradually reduced, greatly improving the portable lighting equipment manufacturer of LED light source products. At the same time, the LED light source product performance stable gradually, and to a certain extent, to stimulate the portable lighting equipment manufacturers choose LED light source as a light source device. According to the statistical analysis of China lighting association, LED light source products in China in 2010 in the portable lighting penetration reached 35%, to 2013 will reach 65%. The following figure shows - 2007 LED light source portable lighting industry output value of 2013, China's demand and application of the LED light source.

in conclusion, as the overall recovery of the global economy is accelerated, portable lighting products industry in China will continue to maintain a stable development momentum. At the same time, with China's LED industry matures, the LED light source performance is stable, the price gradually return to rational, LED light source in the application of portable lighting products will become the new direction of the development of the industry.
