Specifications Glare and brightness control has been a lighting market issue from the dawn of artificial illumination. LEDs and SSL products are not immune to this. In fact many produce more glare and brilliance than conventional products. This is caused by an over zeolous pursuit of efficacy numbers over lighting qualities, resulting in very bright apertures and less control over distribution of light. In some applications, this can be offensive to the eye. Since SSL products rarely fit standard accessories, adding glare control to them can not be accomplished with off-the-shelf parts.
