Why LED? A Guide to The Next Generation of Lighting

LED Basics and Background

A light-emitting diode (LED) is a semiconductor chip that emits light when conducting current. LED's are very versatile due to their ability to emit nearly all spectrums of light. This has led to their nearly universal adoption as a light source for a wide range of applications from: status indicator lights, to traffic signals, to today's advanced direct replacement LED light sources.

Modern LED's are as versatile as they are diverse in their forms

Although, LED's that produce a practical spectrum of visible light have been under constant development since the 1960's, only recently have LED's that can produce acceptable levels of illumination - for a primary lighting source in a home or business - seen mass production. The pace of innovation in the field of LED illumination, also referred to as Solid State Lighting (SSL), is currently progressing at an amazing pace. The latest bulbs available from LEDLUX did not even exist one year ago!

Benefits of LEDs

Long Life
practicaly all LEDs are rated to have a 50,000+ hour lifespan, in this same amount of time you will buy over 50 regular incandescent bulbs or 5 compact florescent bulbs!

50,000 Hours of Light: 50 Incandescent Light Bulbs or 1 LED bulb

Efficiency

most powerful replacement bulb uses only 10 watts of electricity, yet it performs on par with a 100 watt incandescent bulb and is due to the extremely efficient nature of LEDs. Traditional incandescent bulbs waste 98% of their energy producing wasted heat. LEDs on the other hand produce very little heat in order to maintain brilliant light saving and even assist in cooling costs.Durability

LEDs have no filament or tube to break thus they are very durable. Even if you happen to drop or mishandle one, you will not be left with a mess of broken or shattered glass.

Environmentally Friendly by Design

LEDs are the most environmentally friendly light source other than pure sunlight. First, there are no hazardous substances used inside LEDs. All of our products are RoHS compliant (a strict new standard reducing hazardous substances). You've probably heard a lot about Compact Florescent Bulbs or CFL. These have been touted as a solution to the inefficiencies of incandescent yet they are all made with mercury, thus they are hardly an environmentally sound solution after all.

Second, LEDs are part of the solution to the energy crisis we are all facing. LEDs use less power up front and generate less heat when used. Replacing all of your lighting with LEDs will suddenly make your home or building an environmentally friendly structure.

Finally, with the long life you will achieve from your EarthLED bulb, you will save on the disposal of approximately 50 incandescent bulbs and 5 mercury tainted, compact fluorescent bulbs thus cleaning up our landfills and ultimately saving our environment from waste.

Pure Light

LEDs are available in white and warm light color temperatures for the utmost in flexibility. No matter which temperature you choose, you will always get pure, clear light that makes reading or viewing objects easier on the eyes. Tired of annoying flickering and headaches caused by compact fluorescent bulbs? Say hello to LEDs and their consistent visibility.
