• Low energy consumption: LED lights, compared to other types of bulbs, consume much less electricity. In fact, LED lighting is found to use up to 70% less energy compared to the traditional incandescent bulbs.
• Durable: LED lights last for a much longer time compared to other types of bulbs. An average LED lamp can last for up to 50,000 hours, some even longer. Compare this with incandescent lights, which last for just 1,000 hours, and fluorescent lights which last 15,000 hours.
