What Are the Benefits of Using LED Bulbs Outside?
In terms of lighting effect, there is no flicker or glare, which eliminates visual fatigue caused by flickering and dizzying of the traditional light. In terms of materials, LED bulbs contain no mercury, lead or other harmful substances, which are safe and environmentally friendly. So, what are the exact benefits of using LED bulbs outside?
Significant Energy-Saving
The energy consumption of white light LEDs is only 1/10 of that of incandescent lamps and 1/4 of CFLs. Thanks to the LED technology, light-emitting diodes can directly convert electrical energy into visible light. No waste heat is generated, and all the energy is used to emit light.
Good Resistance to Impact and Vibration
The LED is mainly composed of a chip of electroluminescent semiconductor, and the surrounding is sealed with epoxy resin to protect the inner core wire. The bulb shell is usually made of aluminium with good heat dissipation, beautiful appearance and light weight, but without fragileness of the traditional lamp tube.
Bright and Clear Light
As we all know, traditional incandescent or halogen lamps emit clear white light at the beginning, but over time, the light will turn into orange or even pink. The lighting effect is also greatly reduced, and even harmful to the eyes. However, LED bulbs are completely different. As long as the LED receives electricity, it will immediately produce bright and clear white light, and will not be affected over time. Some LEDs can even adjust the color temperature and brightness to meet your different lighting needs.
Low Cost of Use
High-efficiency LED light bulbs save 80% more power than conventional incandescent light bulbs and are ten times brighter than them at the same power. A long lifespan up to 30,000 hours means fewer replacements. All of these help you save a ton of money and time.
Rich Functions and Various Styles
With the development of LED technology, the types of LED bulbs are becoming more and more diversified. In addition to the general lighting function and pear-shaped body, LED bulbs are increasingly appearing in various functions and shapes to meet practical and decorative lighting needs.
