What are LEDs?

LEDs are Light Emitting Diodes – a solid-state electronic component that allows electricity to travel in only one direction, generating visible light in the process. The latest generation of High Definition TVS use this technology. LEDs have been around for decades but have only recently become cost-effective to produce. A typical LED replacement light bulb will have a dozen or more individual emitters.

Why are LEDs better than incandescent bulbs?
  • LED bulbs last up to 25 times as long as regular incandescent bulbs, significantly reducing replacement costs.
  • LED bulbs use 1/30th the energy of regular incandescent bulbs, lowering your electric bill and your carbon footprint.
  • LEDs are far more durable since they are solid-state and have no fragile filament to break. So, they hold up well to jarring and bumping, making them ideal for trouble lights and other portable uses.
  • LEDs generate virtually no heat, reducing air-conditioning costs in the summer.
Are they better than Compact Fluorescents?
  • LEDs are as superior to CFLs as CFLs are to incandescent bulbs.
  • LED bulbs last up to 10 times longer than compact fluorescent bulbs, reducing replacement costs.
  • LED bulbs use as little as 1/3rd the energy of CFLs, lowering your electric bill and your carbon footprint.
  • Since LEDs use no mercury, manufacturing and disposal are far more ecologically friendly.
  • Many LED light bulbs can be dimmed with a standard rheostat or dimmer switch.
  • Existing fixtures for “tube style” fluorescent bulbs can be retained with minor rewiring.
  • LEDs generate better quality light without the annoying flickering of tube fluorescents.
Energy Savings

LED lighting is currently available for a wide variety of home and industrial applications, and the list is growing every year. The rapid development of LED technology leads to more products and improved manufacturing efficiency, which also results in lower prices. Whether you are converting mercury-vapor lamps in your parking lot or area lighting in your kitchen, LED lights will reduce your carbon footprint and save you significant money in less time than you can imagine.
