What are the Benefits of LED Lighting?

• LEDs operate at a much higher efficiency than conventional lighting, and also higher than energy saver bulbs! This means that LED lighting will save power and will therefore save you more money than any other bulb.

• Unlike incandescent or halogen lighting, LED lighting runs cool, so there is no risk of burning or fire hazards.

• LEDs have a much longer lifetime, where a typical LED bulb lasts up to 50,000 hours compared to typically 30,000 for fluorescent and only 2000 for halogen or incandescent bulbs.

• LED bulbs turn on instantly unlike the energy saver bulbs which take a while to "warm up".

• There is no glass to break in most LED bulbs, which makes them safer.

• LEDs are ideal for use in applications that are subject to frequent on-off cycling, unlike fluorescent lamps that burn out more quickly when cycled frequently.

• The manufacturer has full control over the colour of light output from LEDs.

• LEDs do not contain mercury, unlike fluorescent lamps.
