(AND EVEN THEN CIRCA 70% OF ORIGINAL LIGHT OUTPUT WILL STILL BE MAINTAINED).
“TRADITIONAL BULB” LIFE IS ONLY 1,000 HOURS (INCANDESCENT) OR 2,000 HOURS (HALOGEN), AND WHEN THEY DIE, THEY DIE!
ENERGY EFFICIENCY
110+ LUMENS PER WATT.
(RAPIDLY IMPROVING TOWARDS THE THEORETICAL MAXIMUM OF 300 LUMENS PER WATT).
THIS COMPARES WITH ONLY 15-20 LUMENS PER WATT FOR “TRADITIONAL BULBS.”
SO TO ACHIEVE THE SAME LIGHT LEVEL, ALL OTHER THINGS BEING EQUAL, YOU WOULD ONLY NEED A 9W LED TO REPLACE A 60W “TRADITIONAL BULB.”
LED DELIVERS LIGHT MORE EFFICIENTLY. LESS HEAT, MORE LIGHT.
LESS WASTED RESOURCES, LESS ENERGY CONSUMED AND MORE MONEY SAVED!
80-90% SAVING ON ELECTRICITY CONSUMPTION / COSTS.
VERY LOW MAINTENANCE
QUITE LITERALLY “FIT AND FORGET.”
EVER INCREASING WARRANTY PERIODS DUE TO HARD EVIDENCE OF REAL PERFORMANCE BECOMING APPARENT OVER (WHAT ARE VERY LONG) TEST PERIODS.
GREATER DESIGN FREEDOMS AND OPPORTUNITIES
LED DELIVERS ENHANCED POSSIBILITIES FOR THE MANIPULATION AND CONTROL OF LIT ENVIRONMENTS (SCHEME & SCENE DESIGN).
COMPACT DESIGNS, DIMMABILITY, COLOUR CHANGE, TUNING, PROGRAMMING, INTEGRATION WITH OTHER APPLICATIONS.
CAN BE AS SIMPLE OR AS COMPLICATED, MANUALLY CONTROLLED OR AUTOMATED, AS THE USERS LIKE.
TOUGHNESS
SOLID STATE, ROBUST, DURABLE, CONSISTENT AND RELIABLE IN HIGH OR LOW TEMPERATURE ENVIRONMENTS.
INSTANT ON/OFF.
ECO FRIENDLINESS
MATERIALS ARE RECYCLABLE.
NO TOXIC CHEMCIALS LIKE MERCURY (AN ISSUE WITH FLUORESCENT SOURCES AT END OF LIFE).
NO POTENTIALLY HARMFUL ULTRAVIOLET OR INFRA RED RADIATION.
MATERIAL COSTS – EACH SINGLE LED LAMP (BULB) NEGATES THE NEED FOR 25 “TRADITIONAL BULBS” TO BE MANUFACTURED, SHIPPED AND CONSUMED.
CASE STUDY
ST. PAULS HOUSE (SEE PROJECTS).
TAKING JUST THE DECORATIVE LIGHTING IN THE BAR AND RESTAURANT, THE DOWNLIGHTS AND THE HEADBOARD LIGHTS IN THE GUEST ROOMS, LED IS DELIVERING A SAVING OF OVER £125,132 IN ELECTRICITY COSTS AND 550,579kg OF Co2 OVER THE LAMP LIFETIME.
ASSUMING 3w / 8w / 10.5w LED (RATHER THAN 25w / 50w / 75w INCANDESCENT).
USAGE AT 12 HOURS PER DAY, 7 DAYS PER WEEK.
THIS £125,132 SAVING IS SOME WAY IN EXCESS OF THE TOTAL COST OF ALL THE LUMINAIRES (LIGHT FITTINGS) AND LAMPS (BULBS) SUPPLIED TO THE PROJECT!
