The Evolution of LED Home Lighting

As LEDs continue to evolve; different colour tones, wider lighting arcs, wireless app operational and dimmer compatible, so will their use. With their low wattage consumption, they are as happy rigged to solar power as they are the national grid. Already people are experimenting with new options for lighting their homes. The central lighting rose is giving way to recessed LED ceiling lights. The average three-bed semi will have around 10 rooms including separate bathroom and loo, hallway and landing. If each room is illuminated by one 60 watt incandescent bulb, that’s 600 watts of energy use. Okay, maybe not all the time, but compare that with 10 LEDs. The equivalent LED wattage is 10 watts, giving you a total energy use of 100 watts.
