What color of light do you want?

Selecting the right light appearance for your space can make all the difference. The Kelvin scale is used to describe light appearance. Lower degrees Kelvin indicate a warmer, yellow-white light and higher degrees indicate a blue-white light. Warm white (2700 Kelvin) most closely approximates a traditional incandescent bulb and is favored in bedrooms and living rooms. It provides a warm and inviting light. Neutral White (3500 Kelvin) can be used in almost every space- it’s neutral. Office/work spaces will often utilize this color temperature. Kitchens, bathrooms and work spaces may benefit from a cooler color temperature (4100–5000 K). Daylight White (6500K) can be used for task lighting, detailing, or many industrial applications.

Know your watts from your lumens (brightness or light output)

At one time, we used to refer to wattage a measure of bulb brightness. Actually, wattage indicates the amount of energy a bulb uses and in traditional incandescent bulbs, higher wattage correlates with a brighter bulb. However, new and more efficient Compact Fluorescent (CFL) and LED bulbs use far less energy. Therefore, wattage is no longer an accurate indicator of bulb brightness. Instead, look for the Lumen (lm) rating, which describes the amount of light a پروژکتور صباترانس gives off or its brightness. This is the most accurate way to tell how bright bulbs are in comparison to their incandescent cousins.

Calculate your financial and environmental savings

LEDs are one of the more expensive bulb types on the market today, but recent advancements in LED technology have lowered the cost dramatically. To help reduce the upfront cost many electric utility companies offer rebate programs. LED bulbs are an investment and over their long lifetime they will save you money due to their high energy efficiency. They have the lowest Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) of any bulb type.

Consider bulb longevity

Unlike other bulbs, LEDs do not burn out; they progressively dim over time. LEDs are considered to be at the end of their life when light output drops below 70% of its initial brightness at purchase. Traditional bulbs have a much shorter life than LEDs. Incandescent bulbs may last around 1,000 hours, where a CFL could last as long as 5,000–8,000 hours. LEDs are rated to maintain their initial brightness for 10,000–25,000 hours. If you have a bulb that is difficult to replace وب سایت مارت الکتریک because it’s installed in a hard to reach spot, you may want to consider replacing it sooner rather than later. You won’t have to replace it for years. For example, bulbs rated at 25,000 hours last for more than 20 years when used approximately 3 hours a day.

Keep replacing bulbs until you have LEDs in every fixture
