The produced some lighting for reef aquariums which is a high margin market. But they lost a distribution deal with the largest retailer in the game so they're almost impossible to buy these days.
Which is a real shame, because they're damn good lights. One of the few high output lights with no moving parts, entirely passively cooled. Given that people tend to drop $500-$1200 per light and most aquariums require 2-3 lights, and they tend to fail in a few years due to salt corrosion destroying their fans, they were a godsend.
But yeah, dropped the ball on trying to sell it and can't really find it anymore.

- Beldin 4y agoThe lighting department split off from Philips about 2 years ago. They now go by the name "Signify", if memory serves (check... it does, signify.com). Unfortunately, that coincided with a refocus on B2B. So I don't know if they sell aquarium lights.
