GU10 LED Bulbs

Energy Saving Light Bulbs - GU10

Unlike traditional light sources LED’s do not get hot, so very little energy is wasted as heat. LED’s also do not produce ultraviolet or infrared rays which are light waves which can not be seen by the human eye. What LED’s do is convert a higher percentage of energy into light within the visible spectrum which means that less power is required to produce the same amount of useful light.

The lifetime of an LED lamp is around 50,000 hours; that means that under normal use an LED bulb will not need replacing for 12 years. Using LED lamps means that replacement bulb costs are reduced, as well as man hours spent replacing the lamps. Most LED lamps consume between 1 and 3 Watts of energy. This means that the electricity cost to run an LED bulb is much lower than standard incandescent, compact fluorescent and halogen lamps. In some cases switching to LED lamps can yield a 95.4% saving on electricity charges.
