 • 80% of the fixture, lamp and retrofit kit entries included dimming features
• the first scalable lighting fixture, bi-pin replacement light engine, and three-way LED replacement lamp entries were seen this year.
• a greater number of products that considered the specific needs of seniors
• more products with connected features, and a number of high CRI product entries.
