LED General questions
Outdated incandescent and halogen bulbs waste 95% of their electricity input by turning it into heat. An extremely efficient electricity conversion system means LED bulbs use up to 90% less energy than these inefficient bulbs
Efficient energy conversion technology enables LEDs to easily achieve the same light output of an incandescent or halogen bulb with a much higher wattage (a 5W LED bulb can emit a greater brightness than a 50W halogen bulb)
LEDs are direct replacements for older, inefficient bulbs so there is no need to change fittings which is a cheap and quick installation, but in some case like 12v Dichroic light fitting you will need to covert the fitting so it has a 230v supply or change the fitting completly,
Incandescent and halogen bulbs for domestic properties are being phased out under EU regulations, ensuring old bulbs are replaced with energy efficient alternatives like LEDs. This one simple step is set to reduce our CO₂ emissions by up to 15 million tons a year!
The advanced thermal management of LEDs, such as their thermoplastic heat sinks, drastically reduce lumen depreciation, prolonging the life of the bulb – some LEDs have an expected lifespan of 50,000 hours.
LEDs do not contain toxic materials like mercury and lead, which were common in old incandescent and halogen bulbs and therefore better for the enviroment.
Choose the ‘Colour Temperature’ emitted by LED bulbs – warm, yellow light makes living areas seem more cosy, but cool, white light can improve employee concentration by 37%. Light colour can affect everything from mood to typing errors and even the amount of sleep you get.
Turn off lights or replace with LED lighting allow you to make significant savings on your electricity bill. Lighting controls - These allow lights to be operated or programmed from a console. This helps to reduce energy by using lighting only when it is needed. Wireless lighting control systems are a relatively cheap and flexible means of controlling lighting.
Switching to LED lighting is a quick and hassle-free way to drastically reduce your home lighting bill. Too often lights are left on after rooms are vacated, but the environmental - and financial - impact of these mistakes can be greatly reduced by installing advanced LED bulbs, which use 90% less energy than the old, outdated incandescent and halogen bulbs that are common in most households.
Commercial properties usually have hundreds of bulbs lighting the premises, resulting in huge energy bills. Since LED light bulbs are designed as a direct replacement for older, inefficient lighting systems such as halogen or incandescent bulbs, huge lighting bills are one simple step away from being reduced by up to 90%: replace old bulbs with LEDs in a easy, quick and cheap installation.
