Lunasea zero EMI LED lights eliminate VHF, AIS interference

(HOMOSASA, Fla.) — Lunasea has introduced a new line of zero electro-magnetic interference (EMI) LED marine lights that produce no radio interference, while offering high output, reliability, durability, and advanced features like dimming, high CRI and thermal control.

In a recently published alert, the U.S. Coast Guard warned boaters that EMI caused by some LED products can negatively affect marine VHF-FM radio and AIS reception, posing serious safety risks. The best way to avoid these types of dangerous situations is to purchase products specially designed to eliminate EMI. In addition to providing exceptional illumination, Lunasea’s new zero EMI LED recessed, navigation and mini flood lights will not interfere with crucial onboard communication systems.

Lunasea’s new generation of LED lighting incorporates features most requested by boating enthusiasts. The fact that these lights do not cause interference further differentiates Lunasea’s offerings. Lunasea’s latest zero EMI drivers don’t just pass FCC testing “noise level EMI” – they have no EMI.

Because many LED light fixtures incorporate switch-mode converters to control current, they generate both conducted and radiated radio frequency (RF) emissions that can interfere with onboard VHF, AIS, FM, SSB and GPS radios. The unique LED driver and board design of Lunasea’s new zero EMI LED lights addresses both of these important issues.
