LEDs typically last 50,000 hours whilst a traditional halogen lamp has a rated lamp life of 2,000 hours. Even compact fluorescents don’t perform much better with a typical lamp life of between 5,000-10,000 hours (depending on gear type and manufacturer). As LEDs do not have a filament, they are not easily damaged when jarred or bumped (i.e. during transport) unlike regular incandescent lamps. LED lamps typically produce 3.4 btu’s/hour compared to 85 btu’s/hour generated by incandescent lamps.

Our LEDs are completely mercury free. At the time of press, LEDs generate over 100 lumen/watt (although 200 lumen/watt has been achieved in laboratory conditions). Conversely, an incandescent lamp generates approximately 14 lumen/watt (based on Osram’s Halolux lamp) and a compact fluorescent generates 42 lumen/watt (based on Osram’s Dulux lamp). Based on these figures, an LED lamp is up to 86% more efficient.
