There are numerous advantages to using the kind of LED (light emitting diode)
lighting provided by the PowerBrite PB15 and PowerBrite PB15Pro over the
incandescent lighting provided by competing rack light products. Here are the main
points to consider when making your purchase:
• LED lights generate almost no heat at all; incandescent bulbs can generate large
amounts of heat.
• LED lights last approximately 50% times longer than incandescent ones, with a
typical life of 100,000 hours (as opposed to incandescent lights, which rarely last
more than about 2,000 hours).
• LED lights are brighter than incandescent ones and when properly arranged, they
deliver much greater light level.
• The quality of our LED light is similar to daylight, while incandescent lights impart
a yellowish, artificial glow.
• Taking your rack on the road? LED lights travel better than incandescent ones
because the LED has no delicate filament or glass that can break from mechanical
shock or vibration.
