Lighting enhances our ability to see things and our surroundings. Natural light may not reach closed areas of the home at all times, so we rely on, artificial lighting. Poor lighting in the home may affect eyesight, and can ruin the ambience of our living spaces. Moreover, frequent replacement of lighting tends to burn a hole in the pocket. So, why not invest in quality lighting? LED lamps, bulbs, and tubes are the best  lighting solution when it comes to saving energy and usage costs. Megaman is a reputable lighting company that manufactures quality LEDs.

LED Lighting Decor

When light is used in the home, most of the time, it is used for constant illumination. This means energy consumption throughout the entire day. Electricity bills can become a concern. However, with the use of LED lightings in home décor, huge reductions in electricity bills are possible because they consume up to 90% less electricity than traditional lighting. LED lights also produce less heat than traditional lighting, and last much longer in comparison. Moreover, the light from  LED lamps is clear and sharp, whereas traditional decorative lights may not produce enough light and may need frequent replacement. LED lights can produce light for up to 50,000 hours (L70), and therefore do not require replacement for many years.

So, light up your home with LED lighting from Novel Energy Lighting, and save energy and money.

LED lighting has progressed a long way with the advent of high power LEDs. LED MR16 lamps are now around the same size as halogen lamps, which makes them a perfect direct replacement for older and inefficient traditional lamps, and they will save you money too!. These LED lamps can be used for spotlights and downlights to create a pleasant indoor or outdoor ambience. The light produced by these lamps is perfectly bright and is available in cool white or warm white light. With energy saving of up to 90%, these lamps will save you money and reduce your carbon footprint.. They are an ideal replacement when for fluorescent and halogen lighting.

LED MR16 lamps

Halogen MR16 lamps produce more heat, which means they have limited lifespans of around 2000hrs.. In contrast, LEDs produce much less heat because they use much less power, which means they are especially durable. The powerful light from one LED can outlast 25 replaced halogen lamps, delivering outstanding performance. Energy costs are barely a concern when it comes to using these high power LED MR16s, especially as global electricity prices continue to rise. Moreover, it is an investment that pays for itself in less than 1 year (sometimes in a matter of months). Novel Energy Lighting sells a range of such LEDs that are manufactured by Philips, Megaman, Heathfield and others.

LED lights are certainly eco-friendly. Switching to LED can make a huge difference as it reduces your electricity bill considerably. LED lamps consume low energy, but lasts much longer than incandescent lights. Moreover, there is no mercury or any other toxic chemical in LEDs that would otherwise harm the environment. To add to the benefits, LEDs produce less heat, which in turn increases the rated life.

LED Lights

Frequent replacements can be tedious, time-consuming and expensive. This is not a problem with LEDs. LED lamps do not need frequent replacement and can illuminate an area for up to 50,000 hours or longer. They are also easy to install as a replacement for incandescent or halogen lamps, and so take very little time to retrofit. You tend to fit and forget these lights due to their long lifespan. LED lighting is cost-effective and delivers immediate returns by lowering energy bills.

Another factor in LED lights eco-friendly credentials, is that they are recyclable. The material and production of one LED bulb is equal to 25 incandescent bulbs. So, there are considerable savings in production and materials when it comes to manufacturing LEDs.

A LED light consumes less energy than an incandescent light to produce the same light output. In other words, less wattage is used by the LED compared to a traditional bulb which produces the same lumen output. LED lamps also come with built in sensors, like passive infra-red or microwaves to detect movement, or photocells to switch the lamp off when the area is lit by natural light. These lights are lit only when required, thus avoiding unnecessary power consumption. LED lighting is a great way to save energy whilst boosting your green credentials!

Philip Wall, Partner, Light Efficient Design looks at the opportunities that retrofit LED lighting offers contractors.

Industrial and commercial users of electricity in the UK are experiencing increased tariffs with each new season. Many are on the lookout for a solution that allows them to move from energy-expensive High Intensity Discharge (HID) or SON light sources to the much lower energy usage Light-Emitting Diode (LED) technology.

The benefits of LED lighting are well known to both contractors/installers and customers: reduced energy costs, lower carbon footprint, better quality of light, longer life, and the ability to use lighting controls.

But contractors can now benefit even further by offering a fast emerging category of products using LED technology: LED Corn lamps that directly replace HID lamps. These high power LED lamps come with E27 or E40 bases and are a solution for non-invasive, faster and easier installation of LED technology in a commercial or industrial facility. A contractor can offer a client the benefit of adopting LED lighting in a facility quickly – thus immediately realizing the energy savings of LED.

Try before you buy: One particular benefit of this new technology for a contractor is the ability to offer clients a trial installation to experience the light firsthand. Such a trial is fast and easy to implement and often results in new business for the contractor.

Dan Roberts of Roberts and Connelly Electrical Services first learned about the high power LED lamps when his local electrical supplier asked him for installation help at a school’s car park and sports centre.

Roberts notes: “When I easily installed the LED Corn lamps in the car park and saw the clean bright light the LED lamp produced at less than 1/2 the wattage, I was sold. Since that installation, I have been able to meet with several of my customers to offer LED lamp trials for their facilities.” Roberts’ business is growing as he is adding LED for HID Retrofit services to his portfolio.

Planned programme: In addition to the ability to trial the lamps and the opportunity to adopt LED technology quickly and without disruption, a contractor or installer can offer clients the flexibility to phase in the cost of the conversion to LED as part of a planned and budgeted maintenance programme, as LED lamps can be installed in phases while keeping a consistent ‘look’ for the site.

The concept of retrofitting a space with new LED fittings is not new, but the ability to replace HID lamps with LED lamps is, and it is proving to be a good fit for both businesses and clients.

Novel Energy Lighting sells a selection of LED Corn lamps from 20W through 200W. See our selection here: http://www.novelenergylighting.com/led-lamps-bulbs/led-corn-lamps-mv.html

An interesting article by Kosnic:

LEDs were invented more than 50 years ago but they have taken decades to provide their worth in mainstream applications.  Problems with colour rendition, lack of standardisation, and inability to dim have given LED lams a bad press and created confusion within the marketplace.

However, innovations in LED lighting technology and new product development are prompting an e-evaluation of whether now is the right moment to realise the carbon savings and energy efficiency of LEDs.

There are three main benefits of LEDs:

Robust
LEDs are solid state light sources and so are very robust.  While an incandescent lamp will last for approximately 1,000 hours, an LED alternative will last for up to 40,000 hours.  Many manufacturers will be happy to guarantee this period of operation, offering free replacements in the event of early failure.

Therefore, an LED lamp fitted in a reception area and used for seven hours every day of the week, will still be functioning after 10 years.  This delivers both energy and maintenance savings.  In a large office or hotel, it is common to find one person from the mainainance stream dedicated to changing light bulbs!  Switching to LEDs allows mainainance staff to focus on other activities.

Energy savings
The real cost savings, however, are apparent when calculating energy savings.  LEDs are highly efficient light sources that release only a tiny amount of heat and have low power consumption.  There are millions of GU10 halogen lamps in use within canteens, reception areas, consulting rooms, etc.  The LED direct replacement for this halogen lamp is 88% more efficient giving the following cost-benefit calculation:

The cost of the 50W GU10 is £1.00

The cost of a LED replacement is £9.00

If the lamp is lit for 12 hours per day, with an electricity cost £0.12 per KWH, the cost of operation for the conventional lamp will be £20.00 per year, whereas the LED is only £2.40. Even taking the initial purchase price in to consideration, the payback period will be seven months. Remember, these are the figures for only one lamp.

Versatile
Many LED lamps can be retrofitted in five minutes and, unlike old-style bulbs, they light instantly.  Businesses should look for quick wins such as areas where lamps are lit for long periods and lights are kept on for more than 5 hours a day. Good examples include corridors, stairwells and landings, reception areas, offices and warehouses, and canteens and rest rooms. Used in these areas, LED lighting can also provide a better quality of light than traditional bulbs – eliminating flickering and associated ailments such as headaches and eye strain.  LED lighting also gives off negligible heat and so is safer for environments where lamps are situation close to staff.

This safety, the need of the public sector to tackle carbon emissions and reduce costs, coupled with product innovation from LED manufacturers means that re-evaluating lighting strategies is now a potentially highly valuable exercise.
