Things to Consider Before Buying LED Lights
The web is now among the best places to purchase low energy Leds. However, before you buy there are some things worth taking into consideration. Despite what everyone says, buying these Lights requires some consideration. It's not difficult, but at least you will steer clear of the need for having to return your LED bulbs when the event arises. By following some simple steps not only will you choose the right LED lights each time, you will also be spending less money on your power bills very quickly.One thing to check when buying theshi-tech Llghts is the fitting. Check the fitting in your existing bulb. This will be as a code. For example it might be GU10, MR16 or B22. Leds have the same fittings as conventional halogen and incandescent bulbs, so through getting this right straight away you will be aware what you're looking for and what questions to ask when you really need to. You can identify your fitting by either checking the bulb itself or utilizing a fitting guide, which most websites now provide. Simply compare your fittings from the high resolution images.
Next, be sure to check wattage whenever you by LED lights. Discover what wattage your overall bulbs are, either by checking the initial packaging or, should you no more have the original packaging, by looking at the bulb itself. Light bulbs will usually have the wattage printed somewhere on their own surface. Knowing the wattage of your existing bulbs compare these with the 'equivalent wattage' that exist either in the merchandise specification or on the product images. An equivalent wattage simply describes the wattage from the halogen or incandescent bulb the Leds are made to replace. For example a GU10 LED (48 Cluster) uses 2.5 watts, but its equivalent wattage is 30 watts. This means the bulbs is designed to replace a 30 watt halogen.
The ultimate thing to check on may be the size of the bulbs. One of the greatest problems customers have is that they go back home and find that their brand new LEDs don't fit in their recessed ceiling fittings. The reason being some GU10 LED Bulbs are created to slightly larger specifications to support heat sinks and drivers. Before you purchase make sure you appraise the size your fittings and compare these with the sizes quoted on the website in the product specifications area.
By following the aforementioned advice you shouldn't have any trouble finding exactly which bulbs you'll need and swapping them over.
