LED Household Illumination - How To Reap The Benefits Of It

Most individuals have come across LED Home Lighting in one form or another; usually in torches, Christmas light fittings and solar or mains powered garden lighting. However many are still unaware that home LED home lighting is currently not only possible, but very much the future of household lighting.

The Lighting Business is fast dropping further investment within the current generation of low-power lamps (Compact Fluorescent Lamps or CFLs - ungainly, garish and, being crammed with Mercury vapour, a disposal nightmare). Firms like the giant Philips Lighting Corporation have already stated their commitment to LED Home Lighting as the way forward.

Consequently the provision, range and affordability of LED Home Lighting solutions is growing at an explosive rate. However as at this time it is still best to introduce LED Home Lighting into your personal home by approaching those application that LEDs are best in a position to replace.

The important distinction between traditional incandescent light bulbs and LED lights is that the former wastes up to 98% of the electrical energy supplied as heat but does shine light in all directions, whereas LED light sources convert almost all their electrical energy into light (hence the reason they stay cool to the touch) but shine a pure and very intense directional light.

Another key differentiator is value of ownership. LED light bulbs last an extremely long time (3 decades of normal use) and cost so little to run that the cost of the electricity used throughout the entire lifetime of a bulb is almost certain to be less than the cost of the bulb itself. It is in stark contrast to normal non-LED bulbs that are typically well over 500 times the cost of the bulb itself in running and replacement costs.

These certain qualities (extremely efficient, zero fire risk and focused light) make LED light bulbs a perfect alternative for spot lights, especially the ubiquitous halogen lamps presently found in numerous homes and that waste heat and money in abundance.

But changing domestic halogen down lighters is only one aspect of spot lighting that LED lamps are good for. Additionally they make ideal display lights and as a bonus can be put in places where you couldn't even think about using conventional incandescent spot lights because of the risk of damage and fire from their extremely high operating temperature.

LED spot illuminations are a natural alternative for bringing illumination to display units, cabinets, beneath kitchen shelves and inside cupboards and wardrobes. They can be easily installed next to objects and surfaces without any danger of causing heat damage and often give a much better light than regular light bulbs in such applications.

The other dimension that home LED home lighting is revolutionising is mood lighting, bringing completely new array of effects that existing lighting technology cannot begin to emulate. LED mood lighting offers a completely new palette of vibrant color that may be altered and blended at will to produce stunning effects, either as a focal point or cast against floors, ceilings and walls to change the ambiance of any room in your house.
