LED technology benefits

LONG LIFETIME & LUMEN MAINTENANCE

The led lamps maintain over 70% of their original luminous flux at 50,000 hours — long after conventional outdoor light sources have burned out.  Traditional light sources fail catastrophically due to electrodes which weaken or become contaminated and eventually fail, causing the lamp to stop working.

LEDs rarely fail catastrophically: Light output gradually decreases over operating time, end of life is to be when light output reaches 70% of initial value and lifetime highly dependent on temperature (ambient and device as well as operating current.

HIGH COLOUR BRIGHTNESS & EFFICACY

LED technology has a wide variety of choices for outdoor color changing installations in colder climates because the light output and efficacy increases in colder environments.

BETTER FOR THE ENVIRONMENT

Unlike many conventional lighting technologies, in the LEDs technology you find no mercury or heavy metals. Not only are LEDs better for the environment during their long life, the disposal of LEDs will not further pollute our world’s landfills with hazardous waste.

WIDE RANGE OF SUPPORTING OPTICS AND DRIVERS

Many optics vendors have optical solutions tailored to the LED packages to allow customers to create wide, diffuse washes of color or create narrow spots of colored light. Likewise, many driver vendors have products that provide complete color control and monitoring, allowing you to create any color combination or lighting sequence imaginable. 

LED LIGHT IS DIRECTIONAL

HID-based light fixtures waste approximately 20 to 50% the light generated due to the lack of directionality of the light source. LED technology-based fixtures overcome this handicap by making use of a directional point light source.

EXCELLENT DESIGN CHOICE

LED technology is good because you can choose any design for any light fixture, making them easy to assemble into lighting designs.

GREAT PERFORMANCE IN COLD ENVIRONMENTS

Unlike fluorescent lights, LED technology become more efficient as the ambient temperature decreases. LEDs have no problems turning on in cold weather and are one of the most reliable lighting sources in any outdoor condition.

LED OPERATIONAL LIFETIME IS NOT AFFECTED BY SHOCK OR VIBRATION DAMAGE

Shocks and vibration shorten the lifespan of a traditional light bulb. But with the new led technology the light lamp remains unaffected.
