LED Technology - Why Should I Care?

In a nutshell LED lamps and luminaires are more efficient, greener, and safer than traditional technologies (such as incandescent, fluorescent, and halogen).

You will use typically between 50%-80% less power for a comparable amount of usable light, change your lights 5 – 17 times less often, and reduce the lighting associated heat load (BTU) in your residence or business by at least half.

On the green side of things less power means less carbon, so pat yourself on the back and since LED lamps do not contain mercury you are preventing this toxic substance from ending up in our landfills.

If these two reasons aren’t enough to make the change, consider not having to get on your dodgy step ladder twice a year to change the spotlights in your 3 meter high ceilings.  With lifespans of 30,000 hours you can avoid risking life and limb for 8 years or so (even if you run your lights 12 hours per day)!! 
  • More efficient – CHECK. 
  • Better for the environment – CHECK. 
  • And less likely to see you fall off a ladder… DOUBLE CHECK!!   
Now if we could only get the lamps to make your breakfast it would be the PERFECT product!
