Why Use LED Lights? |
If you have been
thinking of installing Solar Electric Panels or that they are a good way
to save money on energy, I want you to rethink how to save on your
electrical bill. If you were to install a 2 Kilowatt solar
electric system you on your house, the usual cost is ~$5.00 per watt.
If you used your normal 60 Watt bulb, you would have to pay $300 for
solar equipment to light that one bulb. If you were to invest $30
into a 7 Watt LED light, you would only need to spend $35 on solar
equipment to light it. This brings the total cost for free light
to $65 versus $300 plus the cost of all the replacement bulbs to meet
the live expectancy of the LED. That is a saving of over $235. The other way to look at it is, that the 60 watts of solar panel could light 9 LED lights instead of one 60 watt bulb. Now consider that the LED will work at saving you money every time you use it. The sun light (time of day) or wind have no effect on the money you will be saving. You also don't have to worry that there is no wind today or that it is a cloudy day, so the solar equipment is not performing as well as they could. No worries about trees blocking the sun light either. You just save money every time you use your LED light. Residential installation is very easy also, so you don't have to hire an electrician to come and install the bulb like you would have to if you were to purchase a solar panel system. The life span is also a major benefit. How many bulbs do you have in your house that you have to get a ladder to change them? I am especially talking about that light in the stairway to the basement. How about if you are confided to a wheel chair. Each time you have to change 1 LED light, you would need to replace a normal bulb up to 50 times. Wouldn't that be less inconvenient! LED lights also get to full brightness in nanoseconds. Not like Compact Florescent Lights (CFLs) which always take time to warm up. Our cold Saskatchewan winters don't prevent the LED lights from displaying their full brightness either. For your information, here is a link to the proper
procedures to follow in case you have a CFL light in your house and it
gets broken. Do Not throw away you CFL lights. Click on
this link to learn why. LED lights can easily be recycled. If your LED light purchased from Suncacp Energy burns out, return it to us for a credit towards a new replacement. By the way, did you know the incandescent bulbs
will be ban from sale in 2012. Here is a link for you to read.
