Things You Must Know Before Buying LED Lights

When it comes to replacing your incandescent bulb, you must have given LED lights a thought. Even though they cost more at first, the savings you get in the long run compared to incandescent bulbs are far greater. Whether it is your home or your office, these lights give you a wide variety of options to choose from. But before you buy LED lights online, it’s important to know them better and make an informed decision.

What You Need To Know About LED Lights

You need to understand the features of LED lights to get the right light for your home or office. 

  1. Lumens Are Important

When it comes to traditional bulbs, the wattage is most important. The wattage measures the energy consumed by the bulb. For LED lights, the lumens of the bulb, along with the wattage, decide the brightness.

To measure the value you get from LED lights, you need to determine the lumens you are getting for every rupee spent. The higher the lumens per rupee, the higher the value for money. The chip quality and the manufacturer should be checked before you choose a bulb. 

  1. Different Light Modes

Wall lights from top lighting companies come with different power modes depending on your needs. You can change the LED lights from a brighter to a softer mode using the one-step dimming option. You also have 3 built-in colour options like warm white, neutral white and cool daylight.

The colours can be changed without changing the wiring. The warm white or the neutral white bulb will have a lower colour temperature compared to a cool daylight bulb. You need to remember that the brighter the light, the higher the colour temperature. Softer lights are more relaxing while brighter lights are more energizing. 

When you switch to a dimmer mode, not only is the energy consumed much less but the life of the bulb is extended as the power supply to the bulb is reduced. 

  1. Type Of Lighting

If you need even lighting, your best option would be an LED panel. These ceiling lights are easy to install, energy efficient, and provide high-quality lighting. These LED lights come in round and square shapes. These panel lights give you a smooth light distribution for even lighting.

The dimensions of your room will decide the wattage of your LED lights. Well-known brands have a wide range when it comes to wattage, starting from 3 watts to 22 watts. For brighter light, a higher wattage will be required. For a soft glow, you just need a 3-watt bulb. The size of the lights vary from 70 mm x 70 mm to 205 mm x 205 mm, so check the size of your ceiling before you buy these lights. 

For optimal lighting, there needs to be an equal interval between these lights. With an LED panel, you enjoy glare-free light that does not hurt your eyes.

Another option for even light distribution would be spot lighting. These LED lights have a highly translucent and clear honeycomb lens for glare-free and wide light distribution. 

  1. Lifespan Of The Bulb

Another important fact to be considered when it comes to LED lights would be the life of the bulb. Considering the life expectancy of a bulb to be 15 years depending on an 8-hour-per-day usage, the total number of hours of quality lighting that you get from trusted companies is more than 40,000 hours! Given the life of the bulb, these bulbs are surprisingly affordable. 

  1. Warranty

The warranty for LED lights is also important, even if you buy them from reputed manufacturers. You get a 2-year warranty with all their quality products. 

Get The Right LED For Your Home

Whether it is bright, energetic lighting or a soft relaxing glow, LED lights bring convenient options for you. From wall lights to spot lighting, there are smart lighting options that give you value for money. Enjoy a wider light distribution, longer bulb life with lower electricity bills when you use these energy-efficient lights.
