This document summarizes LED backlight panels for illuminating stained glass artwork. The panels are custom-made in various sizes and shapes, with low heat and power consumption. They provide soft, even lighting at different brightness levels and color temperatures. ImagiLux engineers work with customers to design panels that properly display stained glass artwork, as shown through examples of restored historic church windows that now feature clear, even lighting with LED panels.

21. ● Save Time: LED Panels have greater than a 50,000 hour lifespan. Forget
the hassle of changing fluorescent tubes.
● Save Money: Environmentally-friendly LEDs provide more even light, for a
longer time—and use much less energy than other options.
● Save Room: Thin panels—with no bright light guide grid patterns—can
often be placed directly against artwork. No diffusion material or extra
distance or ventilation space needed.
