What Are LEDs And Why Should I Switch To Them?
LED stands for “Light Emitting Diode”. Originally designed and intended for use in commercial electronic equipment with a limited low-intensity light emission, as LED technology has advanced, so too have its practical applications.
Modern LEDs are capable of encompassing the entire visible light spectrum and, as such, they have moved to the progressive forefront of lighting technology. This means that the technology is continuously developing; moving ahead, and we’re here to ensure that you have as much information about it as possible, as well as the great benefits you can enjoy from its use.
In order to illustrate the advantages of switching to LED lighting for your home or business, let’s take one of our LED light bulbs as an example.
The Dimmable GU10 6W LED Bulb 27 SMD is one of our best selling products and, for very good reason, as you’ll see:
Lower Energy Consumption
LED bulbs such as this GU10 replacement are far more energy-efficient than other forms of lighting.
All of our LED bulbs have an A⁺ Energy Rating and are guaranteed to save you up to 90% on your electricity bills.
Therefore, if you chose to replace just one of your traditional 60W incandescent light bulbs with this 6W GU10 LED, you’d be using ten times less electricity, yet you’d still have the equivalent 450 lumens of light.
In real terms, using a calculation based on the current price of electricity @ 10.16 pence per kW/h and a usage of 8 hours a day for 365 days, you can expect to achieve the following savings:
- The 60W Incandescent Light Bulb uses 175.20 kW/h and costs £17.80 to run.
- The 6W GU10 LED Bulb uses 17.52 kW/h and costs £1.78 to run.
Therefore, simply by replacing one old school bulb with an up-to-date LED you’ll save a whopping £16.02 over the course of a year. Imagine how much you’d save by switching all your bulbs!
Longer Life Span
Our LED bulbs have an average life-expectancy of 50,000 hours. This represents a significant improvement over conventional incandescent bulbs, which can only ever expect to achieve 1,200 to 2,000 hours.
Therefore, when you switch to LED lighting, you’ll simply plug in your bulbs and then forget about replacing them for more than 17 years!
Greater Reliability
LEDs are generally more durable than standard filament bulbs. Our LED bulbs are manufactured using the best quality materials, and exhibit no ill-effects as a result of external temperature fluctuations or humidity.
Unlike incandescent and CFLs (Compact Fluorescent Lamps), both of which are made from fragile glass, LEDs are particularly robust, being equipped to deal with bumping and jarring quite comfortably without breaking.
More User-Friendly
Our LED bulbs are fully compatible with traditional lighting fixtures. This means that you won’t need to make any modifications at all to your existing lighting setup in order to enjoy their benefits.
Our bulbs are available in a wide variety of fixtures, all of which will retrofit into your current light fittings. These include those with the aforementioned GU10 caps and also:
We always encourage you to check the dimensions and the fittings of our bulbs before you purchase, as you don’t want to get home and find you’ve bought the wrong ones!
For all these reasons you’ll find that LED lighting is already becoming a prominent feature of high street shops, pubs and clubs as well as in people’s homes.
So don't be left in the dark, and remember that we’re always here to help you find exactly the right LED lighting product to suit your needs. In fact, it’s our mission!
We’d really love to hear you say that making the transition to LED lighting was as simple as changing a light bulb!
