Whenever the term LED comes into picture, we tend to go crazy. Many a times, people have an assumption in mind that with LED lights, the room is lit up and it gets a blue tinge. However, there have been lots of changes in technology and game has changed immensely.
LED ceiling lights have become way too stylish and huge spaces can be lit up with ease. However, the best thing is that with these LEDs only some amount of energy is used. In traditional lights, more energy is consumed. Even if the lights are kept on full night, the electricity bill won’t rise up considerably.
There are immense benefits of using LED ceiling lights. Given below are few of them;
Efficient
These LED lights are known for energy efficiency. The home is illuminated completely. With regards to traditional lights, the energy consumption is 80 to 90 percent higher. Out of 100 percent, there is 80 percent conversion into light while 20 percent conversion into heat. The numbers are totally opposite in terms of fluorescent lights or regular lights. Even if a 34 watt LED light is used, the light generated would be same like 84 watt normal light. There is huge reduction in energy which is consumed and this in turn reduces greenhouse gas emission.
So, if you calculate, the electricity bills are much higher in terms of traditional lights.
Product lasts long
The lifespan of these LEDs is pretty long in comparison with traditional counterparts. The emission of carbon is also very less. The lasting is 6 times more as compared to regular one. Hence, frequent replacements are not needed.
There is a huge difference in the life of an LED and life of a traditional bulb. The average life of LED is 70 percent more than that of normal ones. After that they fade out.
Usually, the efficacy of normal bulb is 2000 hours. The efficacy is around 30000 hours for a fluorescent bulb. However, the life of an LED bulb is around 50000 hours.
Mostly, they last around 11 years. However, there are a variety of factors that decide this. The operating current and the temperature also matters. Over a period of time, these LEDs also degrade.
In many fields like transportation, packing processes or industrial manufacturing, these LEDs are very helpful and pressure on lights is reduced considerably.
The temperature is low
Usually, the regular bulbs waste around 90 percent energy. As compared to other bulbs, these LEDs remain very cool and the reason is that they don’t have any glass components. Hence, there is no fluctuation of temperature or vibration.
These lights can be installed easily in the room or the kitchen. The temperature is low and hence, there is no heat. You can also install these lights at outdoor facilities.
Moreover, there is no heat production which is the case with UV rays or fluorescent lighting.
This way, lights can be installed at those places wherein regular lights create a problem. For example, spaces can be lit up which have textile and food.
Weight and size
The weight and size of LEDs is pretty less. You can assemble them and use or can use them singularly too. They are available in miniature size as well and they can be used in constricted places too.
Moreover, due to the directional facility, there is high efficiency that LEDs show in distributing the lights evenly.
The weight of these lights is pretty light. You can easily fix them and install these lights and there is no need of heavy fixtures for holding them. Timeless chandeliers or orb pendants can also be hung in the space.
Overall finish is good
The overall finish and aesthetics of the LED lights is pretty good. It goes well with every interior or room décor. You can maneuver the LEDs successfully.
The best thing is that an illusion is created of more space being there. The room boundaries are blurred because the glow is subtle. Whenever you install them in the ceiling, the ceiling looks higher and spacious look is given to the room.
These days, for matching the décor of the room, soft chandeliers or LED pendants are found; extra depth is added to the same. Ambient or subtle lighting can be done depending on the needs. This won’t be possible in regular bulbs.
Moreover, there is a huge variety of designs, sizes and shapes in LEDs. You can go for orbs or metal pendants for the room.
