Longer lasting
L E D s last up to 100 times longer, and up to
three times more efficient than today’s standard
incandescent lamps.
Reduced maintenance cost
Since L E D s last longer than a normal light source,
there is no need for frequent replacements
thereby reducing or even eliminating ongoing
maintenance and re-lamping expenses.
More energy efficient
L E D s are more efficient than incandescent
and most halogen light sources, using up to 90%
less energy.
Better design flexibility
L E D s are typically much smaller than conventional
light sources, allowing for dramatically different
lighting designs capitalizing on the unobtrusiveness
of the source. Designing with L E D s can enable
completely hidden sources of light, eliminating
large visual luminaires, and creating a magical effect
when illuminated.
Vivid colors
L E D s do not require filters to create colored light,
resulting in deeper saturated colors. Deep reds,
greens, blues and other colors can be produced
in monochromatic form directly from the solid-
state element.
High reliability
The solid-state nature of L E D s makes them
extremely rugged and durable an excellent
choice for city lighting where reliability and
dependability are paramount.
Environmentally friendly
L E D s do not contain any mercury. And since
they last longer, there is less waste disposal in
the environment.
