Lighting with LED’s

If you’ve tried to buy a light bulb lately you’ve probably discovered that things have changed over the last few years. Incandescent light bulbs seem to be going the way of the stagecoach and the Edsel. While we often are sad to see something we’ve grown accustomed to go away, there is some really good news about lighting these days. LED’s, or light emitting diodes as they’re known to the tech friendly, are a remarkable improvement over previous lighting options. Let’s take a look at the upside:

  • LED’s are much more energy-efficient. You’ll pay far less in electricity costs for the amount of light that you’re getting.
  • LED’s last a lot longer than traditional bulbs.
  • LED’s are more environmentally friendly. They contain no mercury or other hazardous substances.
  • LED’s are tougher than traditional bulbs, because there is no filament or two to break.

We might be saying goodbye to an old friend in the old-style bulbs we had grown accustomed to, but for cost, efficiency, durability, and long life, LED’s are a step in the right direction. Come into your Grover Electric and Plumbing Supply and let us help you find the right light your situation.
