TM-21 Adjust Results (X-Times Rule)
?Some indications from limited 6,000 hr data are not believable –limits on predictions are needed
?Analysis was completed on 40 sets of data to determine model fit uncertainty and relationship to prediction limits
–A 0.40% relative combined uncertainty of the measurement system was assumed–Prediction confidence of 90% applied
–Multiplier (i.e., 6 times) is tested to see if it falls within confidence band of projections at a given sample size

?For sample size of 20, max projection = 6 times test duration
?For sample size of 10 -19, max projection = 5.5 times test duration

TM-21 Interpolation of Results
?The format of LM-80 testing (and followed by TM-21) is that testing LED modules at multiple temperatures provides data for matching in-situ performance (i.e., when installed in a luminaire)
?In-situ temperature must be within the LM-80 test temperatures (55°C, 85°C, and user chosen)?Use Arrhenius equation to interpolate between test temperatures
–Arrhenius accounts for the temperature effect on decay rate constants –important for temperature dependant LEDs!–Multi-step process
?Extrapolation outside of LM-80 test temperatures is not recommended or supported

TM-21 Result Reporting Notation
?Apply consistent “life” notation to results.
General form: Lp(Dk)
p= the percentage of initial lumen output that is maintainedD= the total duration of the test in hours divided by 1000 and rounded to a nearest integer
?Examples:
L70(6k) = 34000 hoursL70(10k) = 51000 hoursL70(6k) > 36000 hoursL70(4k) = 4400 hours
