Usage of LED lights is not a common phenomenon, in spite of the ample amount of benefits. So when an entire office building decides that they will be the first ones to use 100 percent LED lights, it ought to be in the news. Lighting was provided by the Netherlands headquartered Royal Philips Electronics to present the potential of LED lights. These lights burn five times longer and require less than half the energy in comparison with the ordinary lights. A total 422 LED fixtures were installed into the building’s false ceilings. The offices are lit with fixtures that incorporate 12-16 high power LEDs, each rated at 2.6 watts. LED spotlights are used to illuminate the corridors.
LED offers a longer lifetime, compact size and flexibility in design and light output without any ultra violet and infra red radiation and safety of usage.
It’s awesome as these new bulbs consume 48% less energy than those they replaced. Not just this, the air conditioning needs will go down since the bulbs give off much less heat. LED’s are catching on and are sure to be the next wave in lighting technology.
