  Introduction Caravan Woods is redefining van conversions by offering high-quality, modular van conversion kits that maximize efficiency, aesthetics, and comfort. One of the biggest challenges in van life is creating a space that feels both functional and inviting, without compromising energy efficiency. To enhance the ambiance and sustainability of our van conversion kits, we partnered with Ellumiglow , a leader in advanced lighting technologies. This collaboration has allowed us to integrate innovative lighting solutions that not only elevate the interior design but also lower power consumption and overall costs. The Challenge Van life demands smart, sustainable solutions. Traditional lighting options in van conversions often result in high power draw, excess heat generation, and a design that feels rigid rather than inviting. Our goal was to create a lighting system that: Provides a warm, natural ambiance Consumes minimal power to preserve battery life Integrates seamlessly in...

We’re all spending more time at home these days. That means computers, TVs, A/C units, and appliances are running almost constantly – and our electricity bills are reflecting that. We’re opening the fridge door more often, lights are being turned on and off throughout the day, and our outlets are working overtime. To help you manage your household’s energy use and keep those power bills low, we asked energy conservation experts  living in Denver  all the way to those living in Hawaii  to share their favorite energy-saving tips and tricks. Here are 13 easy ways you can start conserving energy at home today. Prevent energy waste by unplugging electronics  1. Even if you turn them off, electronics in your home can still be using electricity if they’re left plugged in. To save energy, do a quick audit of what you have plugged into each outlet in your home. Then, unplug what you can or consolidate items using a power strip so you can easily turn everything...

There are certain products that we get pretty excited about, and there's other products we get pee-your-pants excited about. Today's product announcement is the latter, so if you want to see one of the coolest products of 2020, keep reading. Pixel-Free LED 360 is a brand new product for a new decade, but that replaces decades old technology; NEON. Over the past decade, LEDs have replaced so many lighting sources like incandescent bulbs, halogen, florescent bulbs, and even old-school Edison Bulbs. But what LEDs have struggled to find the perfect replacement for is Neon. Neon's unique 360 degree characteristics have made it a very sought after replacement, but also extremely difficult to master. Until now, the best anyone has been able to achieve is a 270 degree glow, but no light has achieved a full 360 degree perfectly diffused glow.  Pixel-Free LED 360 LED Tube Light achieves all the sought after effects, providing a perfectly diffused (no hot spots), light throug...

Ellumiglow offers many different types of lighting technologies for all things signage - from video walls, to custom LED-based faux-neon lighting, RGB mixable lighting tubes, all the way to the cutting edge of Laser Wire side-emitting laser cabling technology that’s easy to integrate into the most challenging of substrates, textiles, and surfaces. With the new Pixel Free LED Trim profile strip, a neon-like illumination element that measures a thin 4mm by 10mm (4mm illumination area, side emitting), custom illuminated displays can be created like never before. The copper tape is cuttable ever 25mm, allowing for less design constraint when creating custom channeling and planning cable routing. The special diffusion layer within the LED Trim strip completely eliminates any hot spotting or visible points of light (one of the most common complaints with LED strips, especially with design specific applications). The shallow depth of the lighting element allows it to be installed into s...

Lighting, since we have been introduced to the incandescent light bulb over 100 years ago, has been known as a fragile, fixed bulb that emits a bright light to its surroundings. When you think about it, not much is different from today’s LEDs, only the size has become much smaller. The “bulb” in an LED is still rigid, and still relatively fragile. As great as LEDs have become, we see a different future of light, the future where light can be applied to anything and everything. The future where lighting doesn’t have to make you squint or turn away, but to be taken in by its beauty. We are excited to introduce the new generation of lighting technologies; the generation of integrated light. The VynEL™ lighting generation. VynEL™ lighting system takes the traditional light bulb and squashes everything we know about it. Rather than a rigid surface that is meant to be in a fixed position, VynEL™ lights are flexible, and encouraged to be moved. Rather than a single bright pinpoint of ligh...

So…you’re looking for a way to add some snazzy, flashy bling to your next costume (and bicycle if you’re in Portland) and you’ve decided that plain old glitter and streamers isn’t going to cut it anymore. Perhaps you’ve even tried using readily available EL Wire or LED lights, and found them to be too dim, too fragile, or not flexible enough for costuming and custom garments.  Maybe you’re not a typical consumer - but a designer in architectural safety wear, or a textile designer for sports and activewear - and need a way to introduce night-time visibility solutions into your latest product line beyond using reflective fabrics and materials. Enter VynEL™. VynEL™ is the world’s most flexible, customizable, and brightest stretchable, washable and bondable light source available today. Made from NASA grade materials, it’s two to three times brighter than other products in its class, more flexible, and even water resistant! This makes it great for use in applications that need a ...
