Genlyte’s New Lumec Ancestra Color Changing Post Top

David Shiller April 30, 2026

 

Another innovative find at LEDucation, earlier this month, was Genlyte Solutions’ new Lumec Ancestra Color Changing Post Top luminaire. The product incorporates Color Kinetics sources to provide a splash of changeable color to streetscapes, campuses, and other post top applications.

Adding color changing capabilities to Lumec post tops creates a visually distinctive and inviting atmosphere that can be attractive to visitors, residents, and businesses. The fixtures can also support city colors, sports teams, parades, and other occasions, fostering a sense of community.

More information can be found here.
