The advantages of LED lighting

return to engineering & janitorial

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.
