7 Advantages of LED Lighting

You might be familiar with the term ‘LED lighting’. It’s the latest fad in town when it comes to lighting. Nope, this article isn’t about those kind of lights ;)

This fits the bill perfectly! 

Most people aren’t aware of the many benefits one can avail by switching over to LED lighting from the traditional ones. While some might have their doubts about purchasing it, considering the high price, but don’t let that be a deterrent.

There are many advantages of LED lighting that you might not know, that’s why we’ve compiled a list of them to help you out. You can check them below:

1. It is energy efficient

One of the common reason that attracts people to switch over to LED bulbs is that it is energy efficient. It consumes less electricity than a traditional light source (incandescent bulb, CFL & FTL), thus saving costs.

2. Works in low voltage supply

As we mentioned before, it requires less electricity to operate. Here’s another point to support it - The LED lights can operate at a low voltage. It’s what makes LED a popular option in rural areas where high voltage supply is limited or restricted.

3. It is eco-friendly

If you thought the LED couldn’t get any better, you should know that it’s eco-friendly too! It can be recycled and it isn’t made from any toxic elements like Mercury in CFLs or Phosphor powder in traditional tube lights. That’s reasonable enough to switch to LED.

4. It is durable

If you think breaking an LED bulb is easy, think again. Unlike the traditional bulbs which are made of glass and filaments, LEDs does not contain filaments. 

These filaments can damage the product in case of voltage surge/fluctuations. The LED lights come with a chip with inbuilt voltage surge/fluctuation protection, this protect the products and makes it durable.

5. It lasts long

Unlike the conventional lighting sources, LED light bulbs have a longer lifespan of about 25,000 hours or more. Well, try to beat that number traditional light bulbs!  

6. Ergonomically designed

LEDs can be designed into any shape and also can be dimmed for full control of light, colour and distribution. Something that won’t be possible with the traditional bulbs.   

7. It is safer

Usually what happens with traditional bulbs is that they get hot within 20-25 minutes of use. They can be harmful. This is not an issue with LEDs as they don’t get that hot even after hours of operation.

Given, how nowadays people are always looking for alternative energy sources that help them conserve more energy. It’s no wonder LEDs have become so popular and would slowly replace traditional lighting in the near future.
