6 Types Of LED Lights

LED lights are loved by many people as they consume little energy and last for a long time. If you are looking for the units it’s good to know that there are many types you can go for. The many types include:

Miniature LEDs

These are the indicators you see on mobile phones, remote controls, digital cameras, and television sets. Since they are small, they produce small light that is in form of a long-range beam of light. The cool thing is that they are compatible with different types of circuit boards. They come in “ready to fit” mode thus you don’t have to worry of how to install them.

LED strips

They feature high-powered LEDs that are mounted on a thin flexible circuit board using an adhesive coating. On first look, they resemble long strips with small twinkling stars. You can use them to decorate different rooms such as dance halls, kitchen, and the sitting area. There are some people that also use them to decorate their vehicles.

LED spot lights

These offer brightness and durability. They are made from tough materials and produce a lot of light ideal for you if you have a large showroom. They come in different colors that you can use to attract attention to the different areas of your product. They are also used in attracting attention in arenas.

Corn bulbs

They are known as corn bulbs as they resemble the ear of a corn. Inside the bulb, there are 80-180 tiny lights that work together to produce a lot of light. You can use the bulbs anywhere but they are ideal when you install them in your house. Experts recommend them when you are looking for energy efficient units that give you a lot of light under little maintenance.

Tube lights

They are slimmer and shorter than the regular lights thus you can install them in a wide range of areas. Some of the areas you can install them include: conference rooms, home and in the office. They are eco-friendly and last for a long time. Unfortunately, they don’t produce a lot of light.

Panel lights

These are high-grade indoor lighting units made from aluminum. They come in different powers such as 12W, 18W, 72W, 36W, 48W, 36Wand 85W. The good thing about them is that they are easy to install and last for a long time. According to the manufacturers, they last up to 50,000 hours.

My very first job in 1990 was with the Street Lighting Division for my local power company as an Electrical Engineering Student Co-Op..... I guess you can say, in the almost 30 years of business experience, I have seen a lot of changes. However, I believe the changes we are currently witnessing now and the pace of technology advancements in the lighting industry, will be the most exciting time period yet.
