Using LEDs puts your brightness on display

January 30, 2020

When it comes to energy efficiency and lighting, you can’t go wrong with LED (light-emitting diodes) bulbs. The two primary benefits from LEDs are:

  1. They last 15 times longer than standard incandescent bulbs.
  2. They use 75% less energy than incandescent bulbs.

LEDs have a variety of brightness options and styles to accommodate all your lighting needs.

You can easily choose the brightness level for each area of your home – from 450 lumens to 2,600 lumens (equivalent to 40–150 watts in an incandescent bulb). And LEDs come in standard shape as well as in floodlight and smaller shapes, including chandelier bulbs.

Finally, you can choose the shade of the lighting you prefer – soft, neutral or daylight.
