Why Should I Switch to LED Lights? ď‚ž Good
old incandescent bulbs kept us company for a long time.
ď‚ž When
it was realised that they consume a lot of energy, cost a lot of money, and also have negative impact on the environment, alternatives were discovered. They include halogens and CFLs.
• While they fared better than incandescent bulbs, a lot of improvement was still required on the lighting front. • And so, LED lights were discovered. • Since then, their application areas have only widened.
Here is where all LED lights are used today: Residential Spaces Office Lighting Industry Lighting Stadium Lighting Garden Lighting Convenience Store Lighting Gas Station Lighting Airport Lighting Exit Signs Traffic Signals Car Lights & Lamps Billboards Lighting Restaurant Lighting Hotel Lighting Warehouse Lighting
Residential Lighting
Commercial Lighting

So, if
you don’t switch to LED lights now, you will be missing out on high-quality lighting that is taking the world by a storm.
Moreover, since
older lighting technology is no longer being manufactured, you will ultimately have to upgrade. Why not today?
Benefits of LED Lights ď‚ž Apart
from being energy-efficient (and thus light on the pocket), LED lights last really long.
ď‚ž That
is, while an incandescent bulb may last you an year or two and the CFL will stay for 8 years at the max, and LED light will stay by your side for 20 years (an estimate for when the bulbs are run 6 hours every day till they burn-out)
P.S.- LED lamps do not burn-out.
Features of LED Lights compact
size makes them ideal for space-constricted
usage. resistance to breakage and vibrations makes them more durable good performance in cold temperatures lifetime unaffected by turning them on and off frequently do not require any warm-up time (instant on) dimmable produce colored light without using filters do not contain mercury or lead have a long lifetime do not produce intense heat, as with an incandescent source, making them safer to the touch
Helpful Tips Always
consider lumens (light produced by the bulb) over watts (power consumed by the bulb) when buying LED lamps & luminaires. Don’t proceed if you have no clue about installation. An installed always helps. Keep the lights turned OFF when not in use. Lighting controls such as motion sensors, timers, and photocell (dusk to dawn) further help bring operational costs down. Buy products certified* for performance & safety.
