How are LEDs different from other light bulbs like incandescent and CFLs?
LED light bulbs are much more energy efficient than incandescent light bulbs, reducing energy consumption by up to 85%. Compared to compact fluorescent bulbs, LEDs are fairly comparable in terms of energy savings. LED’s major advantages over CFLs are the ability to provide a controlled beam of light for reflector applications and its dimmability. LED’s long life of up to 50,000 hours is much longer than both incandescent and fluorescent bulbs, which helps reduce maintenance and replacement costs.
