Promulgation and New Changes of ES Lamp V2.0 (Final Version)
On Dec 31, 2015 (BJT: Jan 1, 2016 ), EPA formally released the ENERGY STAR Program Requirements -- Product Specification for Lamps (Light Bulbs) V2.0. The ENERGY STAR application of light bulbs can be submitted in accordance with Lamp V2.0 from now on and all the ENERGY STAR certificate issued based on the old standard will become invalid on Jan 2, 2017.

Reminder from Standard-Tech to clients: pay attention to the execution time of new standard and the expiry date of old standard so as to maintain the effectiveness of accredited products.  

Changes and Updates of Product Specification Lamps V2.0 : 
1) Requirements for the luminous efficiency of all kinds of light bulbs become much higher. 
2) EPA and California Energy Commission (CEC) unify the requirements for the luminous intensity distribution of A-series light bulbs (including all kinds of omnidirectional light bulbs): the variation in the measurement of luminous intensity within the zone of 0-130° shall not exceed 60%.
3) Additions: the lumen requirement for omnidirectional light bulbs with three-way light adjustments
4) Section 14.1 of ANSI C78.23:1995 (R2003), the standard for the definition of the size and shapes of S-shaped and T-shaped light bulbs 
5) Requirements for the testing and report of standby power (11.7) and power consumption of light bulbs' external equipment (12.6)  

6) The nominal color temperature of 2200K and 2500K, but only applying to the simulated tungsten filament light bulbs until the final formal certificate is issued. These two values of color temperature can be only applied upon the completion of 6,000-hour life testing 
7) Deletions: testing requirements for Rf and Rg, the color indexes measured based on IESNA TM-30
8) Testing requirements for testing 4 light bulbs with a dimmer in a dimming test 
9) Permits: application for the LED lamp with G4 lamp holder used to replace low-voltage halogen lamp

10) Application for color tunable light bulb, related testing guidelines on which are specified in V2.0
