Many LED light bulbs are rated at a life of 50,000 hours. That's an average so some will last longer. 50,000 hours is 27 years if the light is used for 5 hours a day or over 5 years of continuous operation. Compare that to a standard light bulb where typical life is 1,500 hours and need to be changed every year. With LED you may never need to change the light bulb again.
Are LED bulbs ok to fit into my old light fixtures?
All of our LEDs are 'retrofit' designed to replace an existing bulb in an old fitting. Many bulbs are 'perfect fit', meaning they are the same size as the bulb they are replacing. Some are slightly different and others very different, so it may be worth trying some samples before buying too many bulbs.
Can I mix LED bulbs with my old light bulbs?
Yes, there is no technical reason why you shouldn't do this and some people do this to get the final hours of life out of the old technology. The issues to be ware of are that the white colour of the light might differ from old to new and they may dim to a different level.
What is the difference between Warm White and Cool White?
We generally choose lighting to select our environment. At work most of us sit under fluorescent tubes that are actually quite harsh producing cool lighting. Cool lighting makes us feel more energised and helps us concentrate and work. As well as the workplace, cool lighting is well suited to kitchens and bathrooms
At home or in a restaurant we want to relax which is where warm lighting presents a slightly more red effect to make us feel warmer. Typically dimmed, warm lighting is more suited to the living room or bedroom.
