At the upcoming CEDIA Expo 2024 show in Denver on Sept. 5-7, AiSPIRE will highlight its Dim-to-Warm technologies in its Astro Experience of Light, joining the company’s new VENTRIX system and DMX to ELV controller on display at booth #4112.

The latest addition to the AiSPIRE/WAC Astro Micro family hones in on the popular Dim-To-Warm features that allows LEDs to express ranges from 3000K to 1800K as they dim, mimicking the dimming effect of incandescent for added atmosphere. WAC/AiSPIRE explains that by mimicking an incandescent lamp’s dimming appearance, the fixture can shift color temperatures and create a visually comfortable and innately familiar experience while still benefitting from the energy savings and long life of LEDs while delivering up to 900 lumens at full brightness.

The Port Washington, N.Y.-based company asserts that its Dim-to-Warm technology lets homeowners dim to a more intimate, calming glow at 1800K candlelight ambiance, providing a warm mood with gentle illumination, which is great for master baths, dining rooms, home theaters, and more. All Dim-to-Warm options utilize TRIAC or Electronic Low Voltage Universal intuitive dimming protocol.

AiSPIRE/WAC points out that its Astro Micro offers sizes that include 1/2-inch, 1-inch, and 1 1/4-inch aperture options with low-glare, dimmable, robust light output for stealth-like illumination and a quiet ceiling. The company stresses the engineering of the Dim-to-Warm solutions creates a clean, discreet look with four static CCTs, Dim-to-Warm color options, and IC-rated shallow housings that fit tight ceiling plenums. Astro Micro Trimless and Trimmed Housings are available for the downlight and pinhole styles, as well as the new wall wash and adjustable models with an articulating heatsink and light engine.

The company also says that it offers more than 50 architectural finish combinations that are available for the trimless and trimmed downlight, pinhole, wall wash, and adjustable models for installation in drywall, wood, grid/acoustic ceilings.
