LED Lighting

LED lighting is often a replacement to old filament light bulbs. It often has much better power efficiency and can last a lot longer, as long as they have good cooling.


It used to be that LED lights were rather expensive and suffered from restricted 'harsh' colour temperatures. Although more modern LED clusters have a mix of LED's within them to produce softer lighting.

LED lighting is now extensively used in the home and businesses.
