5 factors to consider while choosing LED light fixtures
Light Emitting Diode (LED) lights have a lifespan of over 35,000 hours, which is at least 40 times more than an incandescent light. Plus, LED lights are energy-efficient, making them an excellent option for light fixtures in private and commercial spaces. Here are a few things to remember while choosing LED light fixtures: Understand the difference Most people confuse LED bulbs and integrated LEDs. LED bulbs are a simple replacement for conventional incandescent bulbs and have a single bright LED. On the other hand, built-in or integrated LEDs are arrays of LED lights wherein the LED light source is built into the design. LED bulbs limit design possibilities and are mostly used for small to medium spaces, whereas integrated LEDs, due to their flexibility, can illuminate larger spaces and allow for innovative designs. Use dimmers If you want to make LED light fixtures more energy-efficient and reduce your electricity bill, choose LED light fixtures that can be integrated with dimmers. Just like a fan regulator, dimmers allow you to control the brightness of the LED, and smart LEDs allow you to control the same using phone apps. That said, use only LED-compatible dimmers to prevent flickering and abnormal wear on the light.
