Are you sick of your electricity bill being too expensive? Then switch to LED downlights!
Not only are LED’s now more affordable than ever, but they look great and can save you up to 85% less energy than normal halogen downlights.
Halogen downlights were great in their day, however, with the vast improvement and uptake of LED technology, it’s difficult to justify regularly maintaining what can only be described as a very inefficient, environmentally unfriendly fire. In fact, it’s cheaper to replace them with quality IC4 rated, maintenance-free LED downlights which provide improved lighting and consume up to 5x less energy.

Light emitting diodes (LEDs) have been turning up all over the place, which leads one to wonder why. What’s so great about these little lights? Why are we seeing more and more LED light bulbs cropping up on everything from cars to traffic lights?
Without a filament to break or burn out, LED light bulbs can last for over 100,000 hours without showing their age (that’s over eleven years at full brightness). This lifespan is twice that of typical fluorescent bulbs and twenty times longer than incandescent light bulbs.
An incandescent light bulb loses 80 percent of its energy to heat, leaving only the last 20 percent for light. LED light bulbs turn this around, giving up a scant 20 percent of their energy to heat loss. Not only that, but they operate at 10 to 20 percent of the power required for incandescent bulbs of similar brightness.
LED light bulbs can be made in a vast array of colors without the use of extra filters, which brings down production costs. They also provide a truer, brighter color than a filtered bulb.
The days of humming bulbs came to an end with the creation of LEDs, so there’s no need to lose sanity listening to the thrum, tick, or ping of other light bulbs.
With so little energy lost to heat and so little energy used overall, LED light bulbs to run cool, which means no burnt fingers or burnt-down houses. They are extremely durable thanks to their solid-state construction, so there’s no broken glass to deal with, either.
LEDs can be made to focus without the use of extra reflectors or lenses, which means less bulk and lower cost for the same beam of light.
Incandescent bulbs turn yellow when dimmed, while LED light bulbs retain their true colors.
Thanks to the wide array of colors and shapes LEDs be made to replace almost any light bulb. Because of their diminutive size and power-sipping nature, they can be used in different electrical devices from infrared remote control lights to ultra-light headlamps.
Lighting up to their full brightness in microseconds, LEDs are a safer choice when reaction time is a factor, like when that car in the fast lane slams on the brakes.
LED light bulbs don’t contain mercury, like compact fluorescent bulbs do. Combining that with the fact that they outlast their energy efficient cousins, makes the choice to go LED clear as day.
LED light bulbs have a staggering number of uses, and somehow they keep excelling at all of them.
