the advantages of LED lighting

LED (light emitting diode) lamps are quickly becoming the preferred choice for various lighting applications due to the following:

longer life
energy efficiency, reduces energy consumption up to 80%
environmentally friendly, no Mercury, no Lead or other hazardous materials
low maintenance requirements
no warm up time like compact fluorescents (CFL)
no infrared or ultraviolet emissions
use existing socket configurations
dimmable from 10 to 100%
reduced heat output

Although LED lamps are more expensive than incandescent lamps the savings are achieved through longer life and energy conservation.
