While we were previously used to other types of lights such as fluorescent or incandescent lights, these are now becoming less and less popular in recent years.
It is understandable that it may be quite a hassle to change all your light bulbs in your industrial or commercial space but ultimately, the main question to ask ourselves will be, will it be worth to switch to LED or Light-Emitting Diode bulbs? Also, how will it help or benefit us?
Energy Efficiency
In terms of efficiency as compared to incandescent bulbs, LED lights are approximately 70 to 80 percent more efficient than incandescent bulbs. This can mean cost savings for businesses in the long run. While LED light bulbs tend to cost more at first, the numbers would usually make sense for your company in the long run if you were to do your sums.
Less Heat Emitted
If you remember how warm incandescent lights can be, incandescent lights tend to emit more heat as compared to LED lights. If you were to use incandescent lights, the space will likely feel warmer than if you were to opt for LED lights which tend to emit less heat.
Longer Life Span
In terms of life span of LED light bulbs, they are actually built to last for years, unlike incandescent bulbs which tend to require replacement more frequently. This also means lower costs if you look long term as cost of replacement would be lower.
Stocks Readily Available
While LED light bulbs used to be harder to find, they are nowadays readily available in various shops, stores, supermarket, etc island wide. The cost of LED lights are also not that costly nowadays with bulbs costing just a few dollars and onwards.
Times have changed where technology evolves so quickly in just a short period of time. In an ever changing and fast paced environment, it is essential that we keep up and adapt to the ever changing environment around us. Who knows how our light bulbs would look like in future?
