What is LED Lighting?
LED stands for Light Emitting Diode.
They are small semiconductors and are incredibly efficient, which is why they are much cooler during operation compared to traditional lamps.
LED lighting has seen a huge increase in popularity lately, due to the cost and environmental saving factors.
Why LED Lighting?
There are numerous benefits to LED lighting, from the environment to being more cash your pocket – an article from The Telegraph showed an average saving of £240 a year for a household from switching to LED lamps!
Some of the main benefits include:
-
Efficiency – compared to standard incandescent light bulbs which lose 80% of their energy to heat, LEDs use 80% of their energy as light and only lose 20% to heat
-
Lifespan – LED lights have been shown to last up to 10 times as long as traditional light bulbs
-
Less Heat – They operate and a far reduced heat when in use, which in turn prevents heat damage to fittings used and surrounding appliances
-
Environmental – They don’t contain the harmful gases and chemicals that fluorescent and incandesent lamps require to be produced

Due to the very low heat signature the lights have, it also prevents overheating and is much safer in preventing fire risks.
