Why an LED?
Long Lifespan
An LED light bulb lasts 50 to 100 times longer than an incandescent light bulb and 5 to 10 times longer than a fluorescent light bulb. The operational life expectancy of an LED is between 30,000 and 100,000 hours (or 11 years of continuous operation!), depending on the power supply used. Even the lowest life expectancy of an LED bulb is significantly higher than that of traditional light bulbs, reducing time spent on maintenance and cost of replacing the unit. Furthermore, LEDs don’t burn out in the same way a standard light does. Instead of suddenly burning out, the lighting diodes begin to be emitted at lower levels, reducing brightness over a long period of time.
Low Heat and Energy-Efficient
The main difference between standard bulbs and LED bulbs is the energy consumption. LED lighting units emit little to no heat which saves energy because it is not being lost as heat instead of light (incandescent lights lose about 80% of energy to heat). Therefore, these lights require much less energy—up to 92% less! This low energy consumption will save on energy bills and the low heat emission makes them a safer lighting option.
Toxin and UV Free
LED lights are free of toxic materials and chemicals. Most conventional fluorescent lighting bulbs contain pollutants such as mercury, which are harmful to the environment.
They also produce little infrared light and close to no UV emissions, so this light can be used to illuminate objects sensible to UV radiation such a documents or paintings.
Durable
LEDs are not designed with filament or glass but with hard, durable components. Because of this, they are less vulnerable to damage by heat, cold, vibrations, or external impacts. Many LEDs can be exposed to weather, external vandalism, and construction or manufacturing sites.
Instant and Dimmable Lighting
You don´t have to wait! When an LED Light is powered on, it brightens immediately. Traditional lighting may take several seconds or even minutes to reach full brightness. Furthermore, LEDs can be designed to have a dimming switch, making the brightness level adjustable.
Comfortable on the Eyes
White and soft white LED lights produce a full-spectrum light closely resembling daylight, illuminating tasks and enhancing work, school, and retail environments. LEDs can provide exceptional directional lighting to brighten a work area or create a bright but comfortable light for showcasing retail products.
Versatile
LEDs can come in a large variety of shapes, sizes, and colors, broadening the possibilities of uses. They aren’t only for lighting professionals either—they can be enjoyed by anyone and everyone!
