Source Policy

Data Hierarchy

Every specification on this site follows a strict source hierarchy: 1) official TMT LEDs USA datasheets are the primary source and are cited wherever specs appear; 2) the manufacturer's website is used only where a datasheet is not yet available, and such values are labeled (e.g., the Slim+ module); 3) calculated fallbacks (such as the 80% derating rule for unpublished load limits) are used last and always flagged as estimates.

Pending-Data Flagging

Values awaiting confirmation are marked in place — for example, Midi 4 lumen figures carry a RevA note pending manufacturer confirmation, and 24V module load limits are labeled as derating fallbacks until official limits publish. When confirmation arrives, flags are removed and the change is recorded.

Relationship Disclosure

This site's LED product coverage centers on TMT LEDs USA products, and workflow equipment coverage includes products available through AMCAD Graphics. The full relationship disclosure statement appears here.

Third-Party Data Attribution

Market analytics use public government data: FRED (Federal Reserve Economic Data), EIA electricity rates, U.S. Census Bureau permits, BLS employment data, and World Bank energy indicators. Each analytics panel attributes its series and retrieval date. Use of FRED data does not imply endorsement by the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis.
