LED lights, or light emitting diodes, are small sources of light that work when the movement from electrons illuminates semiconductor material. Compact LED bulbs direct the light they give off more efficiently, without a delay in brightness. LED lighting instantly turns on and continues to work that way for a longer lifetime than incandescent bulbs and even CFL or compact fluorescent bulbs. The approximate life expectancy of an LED bulb falls between 15,000 hours and 50,000 hours!
Not only will LED bulbs last longer than their competition, but they do not give off any infrared or UV rays. They are also designed to resist breakage and remain cool to the touch. Only a small portion of the energy released from an LED bulb is heat, which is then channeled into a heat sink preventing the bulb from becoming too hot.
LED bulbs are ideal for steps and stairways, cove lighting, landscaping or even holiday lighting.
