Should immensely help. TCPI sells only LED light bulbs, so it will drive consumers away from competitors towards TCPI's products.

Although, back in March 2015, Asia only accounted for 4,684 of the 98,775 net sales done by TCPI. Obviously that number will be growing now with this news, but not as big of a difference as if the prohibition had happened in another geographical area.
