Curved LED Illuminated Monorail with Blue LED Generator and LED Illuminated Monorail Jelly Pendants in Blue, Cable suspended
LBL LED Illuminated Monorail System
LED Illuminated Monorail
Hand-bendable Monorail with a fiber-optic band of colored LED light.
State-of-the-art LEDs (Light Emitting Diodes) brilliantly illuminate through fiber optic cabling that runs through the center of LBL’s Monorail. Simply plug in a single-ended LED generator at the ends of the Monorail and you have a brilliant, glowing Monorail. Each LED only uses 3 watts of energy. 32′ of Monorail glows brightly with just two generators. The system is fully dimmable and easily expandable. Compatible with all LBL 2-circuit elements. (This system is not a 2-circuit system.)

Any organic curve or straight run can be created in one of 5 colors, or mix in new colors each time you add a generator to deliver a full spectrum of possibilities.
LBL LED Illuminated Monorail
Design your rail.
Determine what you want to light.
Decide where track heads, pendants or both will be placed to direct light where you want it.
Design the Monorail run, connecting the lights.
Monorail can be shaped to follow room architecture or create an organic shape. You can sketch out your room on paper. Draw in your lights, then decide how you want to design the track to suspend them.
You could use string to lay out your design on the floor to determine your length, especially if you have an especially curvy run.
Rail is available in connectable four or eight foot sections to be bent in the field horizontally to a radius as small as 6″ and vertically to a radius as small as 24″ as needed or used as a straight section.
Precurved pieces, prebent spirals and circles are available in a variety of sizes.
All rail pieces are field-cuttable and bendable.
Dead-End connectors allow you to switch and dim sections of rail separately.
Finish your rail with end caps.
Choose a finish; Satin Nickel or Dark Bronze.
LBL LED Illuminated Wall Monorail Wall Mounted Lighted Monorail
Determine your mounting.
Determine how far from the ceiling you would you like your rail to run.
LBL Monorail can be installed nearly flush to the ceiling. Rigid standoffs suspend track up to 96″. Adjustable cable standoffs hang up to 25′.
Rail can be curved horizontally or vertically, to run up and down.
Rigid or cable suspensions mount to flat ceiling, T-Grid ceiling using a clip or sloped ceilings using a Standoff Ball Joint Assembly.
Unique Telescoping Rigid Standoffs make height adjustment easier.
Use a support every 3 feet.
The total number of supports depends on the shape of the track layout.
A rigid power feed may count as a support.
Systems with very unique shapes or many pendants may require additional supports.
When mounting on concrete ceiling or wall, use a masonry adapter.
Curved LED Illuminated Monorail with Blue LED Generator and Mini-Dome I Swivel I Low Voltage Heads
Choose your lights.
Decide where the fixtures should be installed to put light where you want it.
Select from an array of low voltage track heads and pendants.
Add optional colorful and decorative accessories and functional optical controls.

Select your transformer.
Add up the wattage from the lights you have chosen.
Choose 12 or 24 volt. LBL Monorail has a maximum capacity of 600 watts at 12 volts.
Select a visible surface mount transformer or a hidden remote transformer with power feed canopy.
Surface mount transformers install directly to a standard junction box.
Smaller electronic surface mount transformers are well suited for small runs.
Magnetic surface mount tranformers have a higher wattage capacity.
Remote mount magnetic transformers can be installed further away, in an attic or closet.
Magnetic transformers minimize any voltage drop potential.
Select your power feed if you are going to use a remote transformer.
Add LED generators.
Each end of the run needs a single-ended generator.
An additional dual-ended generator would be used to expand your rail runs past 16′.
LBL LED Illuminated Monorail System has an open center channel for fiber optic cable illuminated by an LED generator.
LED Illuminated Monorail, with open center channel for fiber optic cable (fiber optic cable sold separately), is rated for 300 watts at 12 volts. Each piece of rail is shipped with straight conductive connectors to join rail pieces end to end. Order additional connectors if cutting and rejoining rails. All pieces are field-cuttable and hand-bendable to a horizontal radius as small as 12 inches.

About LBL Lighting and Tech Lighting
LBL began as a family business in 1971, founded by Ronald Stone. They used to be called Lightning Bug, so if you are looking for old stock, search Lightning Bug. Then the name changed to LBL Lighting. At some point they became part of Encompass Lighting Group.
Now if you go to the LBL website, it forwards to the Tech Lighting website. The website mergr.com says LBL Lighting, Inc. was acquired by Tech Lighting LLC on 2005-08-08. The website pitchbook.com says that it was to be operated as a subsidiary of Tech Lighting.
April 3, 2017
The Harbour Group acquired Tech Lighting in 2004 and LBL Lighting in 2005 — both makers of architectural, specification-oriented indoor lighting products, mostly with a point source and decorative focus.
Both Tech Lighting and LBL Lighting have been part of Generation Brands for many years.
Cables can suspend light fixtures or pendants. Tech Lighting Systems Kable Lites are completely customizable. Low-voltage heads or pendants are suspended from two parallel cables that virtually disappear while the fixtures appear to almost float in the space. Kable Lite is a flexible solution particularly suited for high ceilings making the fixtures themselves take center…
There are three ways to make the most of any water feature you have; reflecting, highlighting or underwater lighting. Reflecting with Landscape Lighting If you have still water, a pool or a pond, use lighting to create a reflection on the water. Reflecting or mirroring can be really dramatic. Use the accent spots and spreads…
Bruck Lighting’s New GalaxZ Simplifies Daylight Harvesting Daylight Harvesting means using as much natural sunlight as possible instead of electric lighting. Of course this uses less energy and costs less money. Win-Win! Daylight Harvesting lighting control systems dim or switch off electric lighting when there is more natural sunlight.

Whether you remove an existing ceiling to expose the beams, or add the look, revealed wood ceilings add wonderful architectural interest. This open floor plan home shows that the exposed ceiling doesn’t have to look rustic or industrial. The room has a high exposed ceiling painted a little darker than the walls. Cable runs between…
Repurposed old glass insulators are all over Etsy. People turn them into candle holders and book ends. I have about a dozen of them that I put over inexpensive solar lights. They mostly block both the light and the solar panel, but I don’t care. A number of lighting manufacturers make lighting collections that use…
I was trying to find an octopus chandelier. I saw one, but I could not find it for sale anywhere. But, I found many octopus wall sconces and octopus table lamps in two styles and four variations. There are a lot of octopus wall sconces available, but they all seem to be these three variations….
