LED concepts

LEDs are designed to emit a large number of photons, outside. The light generated by LED uses the electric energy much more efficiently than in case of incandescent sources, where almost 90% of the energy is used to heat the filament to incandescence. Besides this, the optical system used is superior from the losses point of view.

The efficiency of the supply sources is another extremely important factor. All of these, together, lead to an overall efficiency highly superior to the classic solutions. This shall be reflected in the electric energy consumption. The LEDs can be controlled much easily with dimming systems, for colour control or with lighting scenarios software, etc.

For the conventional lighting bulbs, the light generating process involves generating a very large amount of heat. This is a loss of energy if the lamp is not used for heating, as a great amount of the energy for lighting is lost by heat. LEDs generate very little heat. The greatest amount of the energy is directed towards the light, which reduces significantly the energy costs.
