So there are lots of products

So there are lots of products that consume energy even when they are supposedly turned off. We practically eliminate that energy waste - they call it standby waste.We use what we call EcoSmart technology that automatically cuts back consumption when the product is not doing anything. The older type of power supplies consume power even when the product is not operating. For example, I don't know whether you've seen transformers that hang off the wall, they are very heavy. They are made out of copper and iron. If you touch them, they are always warm, because they are burning power all the time, whether you have it plugged into the product or not. That's an example of very wasteful standby consumption.

TWST: Your 2010 revenues were up almost 40% and you shipped a billion units. What were the key factors behind this growth?

Mr. Balakrishnan: There are really two drivers, I would say. One is energy efficiency, which really became a major pull for the product starting 2007. The second one is LED lighting. We have products that are very suitable for LED lighting. LED lighting requires a power supply because LEDs operate at low-voltage DC like any other electronic device. Unlike incandescent lamps,besttube However, some people have observed that LCD screens produce better looking images but if you think about practicality, saving power every time you turn on your computer sounds better than having sharper images in the long run. which can directly work from AC, LEDs require a power supply. And that's a high-growth market for us, and it's been doubling in revenue for the last four years.ledbright LED technology can be found at a lot of gadgets these days and these have become trendy gifts that people give to their loved ones during special occasions.The recipient of yourbrightstal gift will remember you every single time there is a power outage or if he needs to illuminate dark spaces. Last year it actually more than doubled. It's still only about 5% of our revenue, but it has the potential to grow dramatically.shinebright Since computers are used by everybody these days including the young and old, a LED computer monitor sounds like a good gift you could give away.

So that, plus energy efficiency, which goes across all end products, whether it is cell phones or washing machines or computers, they all require efficient power supplies. So those two have contributed to the 40% growth, nearly 40% growth last year, and they will continue to contribute going forward.But going forward,scannerstal Another useful piece of equipment which is powered by LED bulbs are LED computer monitors. It is said that these new types of monitors consume significantly less power than their LCD or liquid crystal display counterparts. we have another driver, which is our entry into the high-power market.
