So many choices, but why LED ?

So I guess you have heard all the latest hype in the media about energy savings and the advancement of LED Bulbs and LED Downlights?  With so many choices in the market and variations of lighting we though we would offer a few good tip and facts about LED Lighting products available from Prima Luce.

WHAT?

LED stands fro Light Emitting Diode which is a small semiconductor chip which illuminates from the movement of electrons that excite the components within producing a usable light source. A phosphor coating is applied during the manufacturing process that determines the colour temperature of the LED Light.  The colour temperature is also known as the Kelvin, for example a high colour temperature of 5000K - 6000K would produce a slightly sharper blue tinge of light. A 4000K is commonly known as cool white which is close to natural daylight and mainly used in office spaces and commercial applications. 2700K -3000K is commonly known as Warm White which is most commonly used in residential homes and gives a nice warm ambient relaxed feel.

Benefits! 

LED Lighting is super efficient in terms of luminous flux (light output) combined with energy consumption and advancements in this technology of recent years have almost reached the benchmark of lumens produced when replacing traditional halogen light bulbs. 

For example, most homes currently use 35w or 50w MR16 or GU10 (240v) Halogen bulbs that produce between 550 lumens to 850 lumens. These new LED Light bulbs  have the light output to contend with your old traditional halogen lights and can used as a direct retro-fit replacement without the need of an electrician.

The power savings are incredible with a reduction in your lighting costs of over 80% is easily achievable. Running some calculations you can safely say that after purchasing your new LED light bulbs and installing them, the power savings would pay back the price of the bulbs in just over one year making them a sensible investment as they generally last between 3-5 years which means you get the full power savings of 80% + back in your pocket over an average 3 year period making a substantial saving on your power bills!
