LED lights are the latest technology in energy efficient lighting. LED stands for ‘‘Light Emitting Diode’’, a semiconductor device that converts electricity into light.

They are super energy efficient, using less energy than halogen or incandescent lighting meaning significant savings on your electricity bills.

The lights are super energy efficient, using less energy meaning significant savings on your electricity bill.

Switching to LED lighting has the following benefits

1.Long life: LED bulbs and diodes have an outstanding operational life time that can be up to 50 000 burning hours.

This translates to almost 20 years of continuous operation if the lamp is subjected to an average 8 hours of illumination every day.

2.Energy efficiency: They have an estimated energy efficiency of up to 90 percent when compared to conventional light bulbs.

3.Ecologically friendly: LED is an eco-friendly form of lighting as they do not contain mercury or other harmful gasses or emit any harmful UV rays thus reducing your carbon foot print.

4.Durable quality: LEDs are extremely durable and built with sturdy components that are highly rugged and can withstand even the roughest conditions.

5.Design flexibility: LEDs can be combined in any shape to produce highly efficient illumination.

6.Operational in extremely cold or hot temperatures: LED lights are ideal for operation under cold and low outdoor temperature settings.

In the case of fluorescent lamps, low temperatures may affect their operation and present a challenge, but LED illumination operates well in cold conditions such as outdoor winter settings.

7.Instant lighting & frequent switching: LED lights brighten up immediately and when powered on, which is a great advantage for infrastructure projects such as traffic and signal lights.

They can also be switched off and on frequently and without affecting their life span or light emission.

In contrast, traditional lighting may take several seconds to reach full brightness, and frequent on and off switching does drastically reduce operational life expectancy.

8.Safety: Most LED lights operate at low voltage making them cool to touch and much safer to handle during installation and maintenance and can also be exposed to rain and snow.

LED Lights are now available in a wide variety of home and industrial products.

It is therefore advisable to purchase the one which is ideal for you.
