LEDs have many advantages over incandescent and florescent light sources, above all due to their lower energy consumption, longer lifetime, smaller size, durability, resistance to vibrations and reduced heat emission. They do not contain mercury (which is highly poisonous to the environment); compared to florescent technology. They do not create high magnetic fields like magnetic induction technology, which create higher residual radiation towards human beings. They have a better chromatic production index compared to other types of lamps and they reduce noise on power lines. They are... Read More →

As general lighting, the light emitting diode (LED) was first introduced in 199. With the increases in performance forecast, the industry expects LEDs will one day completely replace traditional lighting systems. This is possible today thanks to very realistic improvements in the performance of LEDs in recent years and a wave of new commercial, industrial and institutional LED lamps that have influenced the market. The commercial and industrial LED market in the US for example, is estimated to reach one billion dollars a year by 2014. This growth will be based on three emerging trends in... Read More →
