The Benefits of Switching to LED Lights

Benefits of Switching to LED Lights

With the cost of living skyrocketting in recent years, everyday Australians are searching for ways to cut down on their household bills. Switching to LED (Light Emitting Diode) light bulbs is a simple, cost-effective way to lower your electricity bill and reduce your impact on the environment.

Triforce Electrical offers a range of comprehensive lighting solutions including tailored advice and assistance to help make the switch to LED lights as smooth as possible. Here are some of the top benefits of switching to LEDs. 

Energy Efficient

One of the stand out benefits of LED light bulbs is their efficiency. LEDs produce light up to 90% more efficiently than traditional incandescent light bulbs, making them a fantastic choice for schools, workplaces and homes.

Reduced Energy Costs

In Australia, lighting accounts for about 10% of the average household electricity bill. As the cost of living continues to rise, finding simple ways to reduce your electricity bills is becoming more and more important. Traditional incandescent light bulbs are inefficient, converting approximately 90% of all the electricity they consume into heat. They not only heat up incredibly quickly they are also fragile and are prone to breaking, meaning you have to replace them more often.

LED bulbs are much more energy-efficient, losing only 10% of their energy as heat. They are an affordable alternative and are reliable, making them a great alternative.

Eco-Friendly

LED lights are a great investment if you are looking to become more environmentally friendly. LEDs do not contain harmful chemicals and substances like mercury, making them safer to use and dispose of sustainably. LED Lightbulbs are also 100% recyclable!

Instant Light

Gone are the days of waiting for your light to splutter into life. LEDs switch on instantly at full brightness. This can be incredibly useful especially when used in commercial settings like office buildings or street lamps. This capability also pairs well with automatic sensors like daylight and motion sensors.

Durable and Longer Lifespan

Unlike incandescent lighting, LEDs don't “burn out”, they dim over time. The typical LED lightbulb lasts for approximately 25,000 to 50,000 hours depending on the quality of the lamp and fixture. LEDs are built to withstand vibrations, bumps, breaks and accidents, making them the ideal choice for high-traffic areas like stairs and living rooms.
