Top 11 reasons for using LED light bulbs.

1) LED light bulbs provide 85% energy savings over conventional incandescent bulbs.

2) LED light bulbs last up to 25 times as long as other bulbs. This coupled with the 85% reduction in energy use makes LED bulbs by far the least expensive light bulbs to use.

3) The much extended working life of LED light bulbs makes them a very attractive choice to use in those hard to reach areas. About six thousand people per year are hospitalized after falling from ladders.

4) LED Light bulbs not only beat CFLs when it comes to cost per bulb and energy savings but also don't contain mercury like CFLs. Mercury is one of the most toxic substances in existence.

5) CFLs working lives are significantly shortened when used in places where lights get switched on/off alot. LEDs are unaffected by switch rates.

6) The efficient manner in which LED light bulbs produce light allows them to stay cool when turned on. No more oven mitts.

7) LED light bulbs are fully dimmable.

8) They come up to full power instantly.

9) LED light bulbs don't drive you insane with buzzing noise.

10) No flickering either or risk of setting off headaches or even seizures.

11) The potential for massive energy savings through the use of LED light bulbs reduces demand for fossil fuels and provides a counter-balance to ecomonic, geo-political and environmental concerns more...
