Whois & Analysis for lightingandsupplies.com

A light fixture (US English), light fitting (UK English), or luminaire is an electrical device containing an electric lamp that provides illumination.

All light fixtures have a fixture body and one or more lamps.

The lamps may be in sockets for easy replacement—or, in the case of some LED fixtures, hard-wired in place.

An electric light, lamp, or light bulb is an electrical component that produces light.

It is the most common form of artificial lighting.

Lamps usually have a base made of ceramic, metal, glass, or plastic, which secures the lamp in the socket of a light fixture, which is often called a "lamp" as well.

The electrical connection to the socket may be made with a screw-thread base, two metal pins, two metal caps or a bayonet mount.

An LED lamp or LED light is an electric light that produces light using light-emitting diodes (LEDs).

LED lamps are significantly more energy-efficient than equivalent incandescent lamps and can be significantly more than most fluorescent lamps.

The most efficient commercially available LED lamps have efficiencies exceeding 200 lumens per watt (lm/W) and convert more than half the input power into light.

Commercial LED lamps have a lifespan several times longer than both incandescent and fluorescent lamps.

Wholesaling or distributing is the sale of goods or merchandise to retailers; to industrial, commercial, institutional or other professional business users; or to other wholesalers (wholesale businesses) and related subordinated services.

In general, it is the sale of goods in bulk to anyone, either a person or an organization, other than the end consumer of that merchandise.

Wholesaling is buying goods in bulk quantity, usually directly from the manufacturer or source, at a discounted rate.

The retailer then sells the goods to the end consumer at a higher price making a profit.

Distribution is the process of making a product or service available for the consumer or business user who needs it, and a distributor is a business involved in the distribution stage of the value chain.

Distribution can be done directly by the producer or service provider, or using indirect channels with distributors or intermediaries.

Distribution (or place) is one of the four elements of the marketing mix: the other three elements being product, pricing, and promotion.
