I would wager most readers are familiar with the Vizio brand. The company has a great line of HDTVs that are the best selling in the US market thanks to the performance and the price of the sets. The company will also soon get into the Android tablet market with a new offering that sounds very nice for the price. Vizio is also now looking to get into a new market to make use of its LED prowess and I hope that it can bring the same low price and quality to this new market.

Vizio has announced that it is stepping in the LED lighting industry. Vizio already makes use of LEDs in the backlighting for its popular HDTVs so it has some experience and access to LED tech. The entry into the LED market by Vizio will come in late Q4 2011. At this point there is no indication of how expensive the bulbs will be.
