Benefits of LED Lighting
LED (light emitting diode) lighting has a whole list of benefits to the consumer. It has an operational life of up to 100,000 hours (11 years of continuous operation), is energy efficient (compared to conventional light bulbs it ranges 80% – 90% more efficient), is durable in quality and is ecologically friendly. LED lighting has design flexibility, operates under hot or cold temperatures, does not require an external reflector to focus its light, has immediate power-on, and operates under low voltage. Future Connections is finding that many consumers can save up to 50% on their lighting bills. Installing LED lighting can also make you eligible for tax credits and rebates.
