Cons of the LED light bulb

We moved to the country yard to live with our parents last month. They found that the house need more bright especially in the rainy winter morning & evening. They planed to buy some bulbs to make our house much brighter. Some one stated to buy some incandescent bulbs. Some suggested buying some CFL (Compact Fluorescent Lamp). But I insisted on buying some LED (Light-Emitting Diodes). An argument was burst in our large relatives.

My brother stated that incandescent is the lowest priced one. & they had use incandescent for so lots of years. It is  nice. & the yellow light is much brighter in the foggy days. The most important thing was that they was used to living in the yellow light. & they felt warm in the yellow light.

I prepared the some useful information to persuade them to pick the LED light bulb. There are the professionals & cons of the LED light bulb.

My husband stated that efficient CFL is the best choice since it is not as pricey. It is brighter than the incandescent bulbs. & it saves more energy. There is no doubt that an LED equivalent light bulb (for example a 6w LED spotlight as a direct replacement for a 35w GU10 halogen lamp) is significantly more pricey than either the original or a CFL alternative. & the cost of LED light bulb ranges $20-$120, depending on the company & product.

It is brighter than that of CFL or incandescent bulb. It emits light of an intended color without the use of color filters. It lights up very quickly. Unlike the CFL which need one or six seconds to light up. LED bulbs generate little heat, which mean it stay cooler than other light bulbs.

Pros of LED Light Bulb

It contains no mercury, unlike CFL. There is no UV, infrared or other deleterious output. For the equivalent of a 60 watt bulb, LED makes use of an average of 5-7 watts compared to 13-15 watts CFL, & 60 watts incandescent.

It lasts up to 10 times longer than some advertise 60,000 hours. It lasts 35,000 to 50, 000 hours of useful life. Cent tubes are usually are rated at about 10,000 to 15,000 hours. Depending partly on the conditions of use, incandescent light bulb lasts about 1,000 to 2,000 hours. Because of its long life span, LED is used on trucks tail lights, & other lighting for safety proposes.

Cons of LED Light Bulb

LED are more long lasting than incandescent or fluorescent lighting. The LED light bulb features excellent shock resistance. It is hard to damage during the delivery.

    LED light bulb is not cheap. It is economical to buy LED bulbs even if other light bulbs are free. If a LED bulb cost $50 dollars. It is still cheap to buy the $50 dollars LED bulb because LED will save you more money on your utility cost over the long haul. But I found some LED light bulbs here are  cheaper than you thought.
