Why LED Lights Are the Better Choice

Undoubtedly, LED light bulbs are the future of household as well as industrial lighting due to the many advantages they have over the infamous incandescent light bulbs.The lifespan of LED light bulbs is estimated to be about 100,000 hours, which is around 11 years of continuous operation! Now, compare this with an incandescent light bulb that has no more than 5000 hours of life.

The increased lifespan of LED light bulbs also translate into savings worth thousands of dollars on a single light point during the next couple of decades.Savings in terms of power consumption is a major highlight of LED light bulbs. An incandescent light bulb operates at a mere 20% efficiency while an LED light bulb operates at around 80% efficiency, i.e., an LED light bulb converts close to 80% of electrical energy into light energy compared to just 20% in case of incandescent light bulb.

LED light bulbs are eco-friendly, unlike the filament-based incandescent light bulbs. They contain no Mercury and can be recycled without damaging the environment.

Unlike halogens or incandescent bulbs, the LED light bulbs produce only light and no heat (Heat is totally undesirable and a necessary evil if you are an incandescent light user). Moreover, LEDs do not produce any damaging UV radiation.

Mercury-containing lamps generated by households and small businesses are not always subject to legal restrictions regarding their disposal. State laws vary and some states, such as California, Maine, New Hampshire, Minnesota, Vermont and Massachusetts, prohibit all mercury-containing lamps, including CFLs, from being discarded in the solid waste stream. In addition, many local ordinances require recycling of mercury-containing products, including lighting. It is best to check with your municipality to understand whether there are local requirements addressing mercury-containing waste disposal.
