As the days get shorter and we spend more time indoors, we increasingly rely on heating, lighting and other electrical appliances. This also increases the energy bill, and that is not really something we look forward to. To keep the bill lower, it is wise to use LED lamps. That saves quite a bit in costs and it is also sustainable. Here are the advantages that LED lights bring.
Long life LED lamps have a long lifespan, so you don't have to replace them so quickly. LED lamps can last up to 50,000 hours, which equates to 5.7 years if the light is on 24 hours a day, and 11.4 years if the light is on 12 hours a day. With LED lighting you therefore have to replace the lamps less often, which saves considerably in costs. They can also withstand switching the lamp on and off.
They are extremely energy efficient LED lamps are the most economical lamps. After all, they consume much less power. In comparison, according to experts, LED lamps consume 75 percent less power than halogen lamps and 85 percent less than incandescent lamps. It is not without reason that after the previous ban on incandescent lamps, a ban on halogen lamps also applies from 1 September 2018.
LED lighting is much more environmentally friendly LED lamps have a much lower impact on the environment, because they use up to 85% less electricity. And electricity production produces polluting substances. LED lamps are also free of toxic chemicals and are in many cases recyclable. With the help of LED lighting you can reduce your CO2 emissions by a third. Waste production is also reduced if the lamp does not have to be replaced every once in a while.
You earn your money back in a short time
At first glance, LED bulbs seem expensive, and you might want to leave them alone, but they are a good long-term investment. After all, they last longer and use less power, so you can easily earn your money back.
You have light immediately
A CFL or halogen lamp usually needs some time to emit light at full power. With an LED lamp, this is a thing of the past. LED lamps do not require a warm-up time. As soon as you turn on the lamp, you immediately get full and bright light.
LED lamps are also dimmable
There are now also LED lamps on the market that are dimmable. This is specifically indicated on the packaging. In addition, LED lighting is available in various colors and the necessary atmosphere can still be created with a dimmer.
