The classic light bulb has worked reliably for years. But the technology is ancient and therefore has some serious disadvantages compared to advanced technologies such as commercial LED lighting. Except for the low purchase price, there are no more any advantages to using incandescent bulbs. Many countries have also banned their use since they are energy inefficient.
The essential advantages of LEDs compared to conventional light bulbs:
- Up to 90% energy savings compared to incandescent bulbs
- There is hardly any heat development and thus lower risk of fire
- The significantly longer service life of up to 30,000 operating hours
Low energy consumption and lower heat generation
An LED lamp can save a lot of energy compared to a conventional light bulb. A LED bulb uses up to 90% less energy to produce the same brightness as a light bulb. How is that possible? The old-fashioned bulb is actually more of a radiator than a bulb because it converts about 90% of the energy into heat and only the rest in light.
Longer life and operating hours
You can recover the slightly higher purchase price of a LED lamp in contrast to a light bulb very quickly. This is possible due to the high power savings on one hand and the much longer life of LED bulbson the other hand. While a light bulb only manages an average of 1,000 operating hours, LED bulbs can go on to illuminate your space up to 50,000 hours. Also, commercial LED lighting is vibration resistant and has no problems with frequent switching on and off.
All these constitute enough reasons to prove the supremacy of commercial LED lighting over the traditional lighting modes.
