Luminous lamp having an ultraviolet filtering and explosion proof thin film

A luminous lamp having an ultraviolet filtering and explosion-proof thin film is disclosed. An outside of a lamp is coated by a transparent layer which comprises phosphor powder. Energy generated by the lamp is absorbed by the phosphor powder while the lamp is shining. The phosphor powder would release energy to shot brilliance, so as to provide auxiliary lighting after turning off the lamp. Additionally, the phosphor powder can absorb harmful ultraviolet and other harmful radiations with shorter wavelengths to be one part of the thin film for filtering harmful radiations. The harmful ultraviolet can be transformed by the phosphor powder into visible light to red shift radiations with short wavelengths; hence the harmful radiations with shorter wavelengths can be eliminated. The illumination of visible light can be further increased. The transparent layer can catch broken fragments of the outside of the lamp to decrease accidents when the lamp is broken.

Method of programming a lighting preset from a radio-frequency remote control

The present invention provides a method of programming a preset intensity of a dimmer switch from a radio-frequency (RF) remote control. A user is able to adjust the intensity of the lighting load to a new intensity and subsequently press and hold a preset button on the remote control to program the new intensity as the preset intensity. The remote control transmits a wireless transmission to the dimmer switch, which immediately responds to the actuation of the preset button by controlling the intensity of the lighting load to an old preset intensity. The dimmer switch then blinks a light-emitting diode representative of the new intensity to provide feedback that the dimmer switch is in the process of programming the preset intensity to the new intensity. Eventually, the dimmer switch stores the new intensity as the preset intensity and stops blinking the light-emitting diode.
