How we light up the places where we live and work makes a big impact on how we feel. It also makes a big impact on the environment. The kind of bulbs, the kind of fixtures, the kind of power, and the habits we keep can all add up to a very significant greening. Start with the fact that a conventional incandescent bulb turns only around five to ten percent of its consumed energy into light, the rest goes out as heat. From there, there's no limit to how green your lighting can be.

LEDs (Light Emitting Diodes) are semiconductors used to create light. They offer numerous advantages compared to traditional lighting methods. Given today's focus on rising energy costs and the need to protect our planet from harmful greenhouse gases, harmful UV rays and mercury-laden landfills, LEDs are the most relevant, reliable and efficient way for general illumination and environmentally-friendly lighting.

LEDs will radically change the energy consumption patterns of the entire planet over the foreseeable future; at the same time, LEDs will serve our environment in a positive and efficient way.

Benefits of LEDs

• Extremely low power consumption – SAVES YOU MONEY .
• Converts almost all energy to light, not heat – FACILITATES COMFORT AND LOWERS AIR-CONDITIONING COSTS.
• Long life span (40,000-100,000 hours) – VALUE, TIME AND/OR BULB-CHANGING COSTS.
• Durable and insensitive to vibration - LED bulbs do not have any fragile or moving parts, therefore making the lamp robust, shockproof, and safe to touch – PRACTICAL.
• Dimmable and programmable, in many cases – VERSATILE.
• Super-fast turn-on, great for vehicle brake lights – RELIABLE.
• Lightweight and compact – GREAT FOR SHIPPING AND STORAGE.
• Wider Correlated Color Temperature (CCT) and Color Selection, without the use of filters and lenses – CONSISTENT LOOKING BULB-TO-BULB.
• No reflectors are required to direct the light – ‘TRUE' LIGHTING.
• Great looking – DISTINGUISHABLE AND ‘FUTURISTIC'.
• N o mercury or other toxins, no UV radiation and they are recyclable – ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY.

Goal

You have the ability to achieve three major objectives:

1. Make a positive contribution to our planet Earth by looking for alternative and ecologically friendly lighting sources.
2. Dramatically save money.
3. Enhance the look of your light sources.
