LED High Bay Lights – A Cheaper Alternative

The places where you will most commonly see LED high bay lights being used is in areas that have high ceilings. So of course these are becoming used more frequently in buildings such as warehouses, gyms and hangars.

In fact they can be used in any space where the height of the ceiling is such that changing a light when the bulb no longer works is difficult. This is of course why so many companies that own high ceiling buildings are opting to install such lighting in theirs.

But what other reasons are there for you to think about installing a LED high bay light over the much cheaper alternatives on the market today? In this article we take a look at just some of the reasons for doing so.

Reason 1:

First off these types of lights have a much longer working life span compared to more conventional types of fluorescent and incandescent lighting. On average you can expect one of these lights to last 10 times as long as a typical compact fluorescent one can. So of course meaning that you will not need to be changing the bulbs in these ones as frequently. This in turn also means that you will not have to be purchasing replacement bulbs as often. All of which means that the cost of using them is far cheaper.

Reason 2:

Another thing that will have you seriously considering installing a LED high bay light is that they are more more energy efficient compared to the bulbs we use currently. You will find that the majority of LED bulbs available today only need between 2 and 10 watts of power to help provide them with the energy that they need to produce a high level of light. This is significantly less than other bulbs need and is normally around only 33% of what a conventional incandescent bulb uses. But be aware that there are some LED bulbs that can use even less energy than this and so once again they will help to save you money.

Reason 3:

Yes you will have to spend more initially on purchasing these types of light fittings but over the term of their use they will save you quite a bit of money. Plus as these lights do not have filaments inside them like conventional lights do then are considerably more durable. These ones are actually far more resistant to being damaged when bumped or dropped and which is the reason why they are so good to be used as high bay lighting.

Reason 4:

When it comes to installing a LED high bay light you will find that along with them not using so much power they are energy efficient in other ways. You will find that the bulbs in these types of lights stay considering cooler compared to other types of bulbs when turned on. So as a result you will find that the need to turn on the air conditioning to help keep temperatures inside a room down will not occur so often.
