Energy saving thanks to LED lighting

Energiesparen Dank LED Beleuchtung - Glühbirne mit heutigem, reflektierendem Design und warmem Licht.

Saving energy thanks to LED lighting



Many people today hardly remember the time before LED lighting. Before LED lighting, incandescent lamps were often the only option, although only around five percent of the energy was converted into light, the rest was lost as heat.


The invention of the LED lamp has fundamentally changed lighting. On average, LED lighting consumes at least 75 percent less energy than an incandescent bulb. It's amazing how much money you can save by switching to LED LIGHTING.


LED lighting is much more energy efficient than incandescent or fluorescent lamps



The diodes generate less heat and, unlike fluorescent lamps, contain no mercury. An LED lamp also lasts many thousands of hours longer than conventional light bulbs.

On average, their service life is up to 70,000 hours, which is around fifty times longer than incandescent lamps or eight to ten times longer than fluorescent lamps.


LED lighting instead of light bulbs: how much money you can save



The average family of four uses around 12% of its electricity with incandescent lighting.

Given the high electricity prices, it is all the more surprising that so far only a few people have completely switched to LED lighting.

By switching completely from incandescent lamps to modern light sources , you can easily save 10% on electricity, as LEDs only consume around 7 to 15% of the energy of an incandescent lamp of the same intensity. It's easy to save energy with light.

Comparison of an energy-saving lamp and an LED lamp

Like any new technology, LEDS were initially very expensive. However, these lamps are now also available at very reasonable prices

LED lighting can also be beautiful and unusual


Vintage light bulbs are a prime example of how antique design can be perfectly combined with the latest LED technology technology. Old light bulbs bring a special charm to your home! Whether in kitchen, bathroom, living roomor bedroom, Retro lamps find their place in every living space.

Saving electricity at home with LED lighting


One of the main reasons why LEDs are so efficient is that they consume much less electricity than incandescent lamps, as they do not produce light in the same way as incandescent lamps.


LED lights are energy efficient, mainly due to their design. These lamps have a semiconductor that emits light when electricity flows through it.


This means that they consume less energy and save energy with light. As the entire circuit does not need to be heated up like an incandescent bulb in order for the filament or gas in it to produce light.

LED lighting has a longer service life


The biggest advantage of LED lighting is that a lamp can last up to twenty years. In comparison, a long-life fluorescent lamp lasts up to five years before it needs to be replaced. With LED lighting, therefore, fewer bulbs need to be purchased.

Using LED light not only saves money but also energy, it is also better for the planet because there is less waste in the form of burnt-out bulbs.

LED strips are not only practical, but also an excellent energy saver


A LED strip not only adds a touch of sparkle to any room in your home. Its low wattage means it uses a fraction of the energy of an incandescent or halogen bulb used in a traditionalceiling lightor table lamp is used. In return LED Strips provide some fantastic lighting optionsto illuminate a living space in an inviting way.

LED lighting: environmentally friendly and without toxic elements


LED lighting is already environmentally friendly due to its efficiency. LED light produces less noise and light pollution. The lamps can withstand various weather conditions. They contain no glass and are relatively shatterproof.


Very important: LED lamps emit no ultraviolet light and contain no mercury or other hazardous substances. In contrast, halogen lamps contain around four to five milligrams of mercury, which can be very dangerous for humans.

Here are my 5th tips for saving energy at home


  • Switch to LED lighting!
  • Use motion detectors, e.g. in the hallway or stairwell
  • Use dimmable lights. This creates a pleasant atmosphere and saves electricity.
  • Make sure you have several small light sources. Use several small light sources rather than one large one.
  • Use Smart Home & Smart Light. Significant energy savings can be achieved byindividually controlling and dimming the lighting.

Everything speaks for LED lighting


Old light sources such as incandescent lamps and halogen lamps have had their day. LED technology is now fully developed and offers numerous advantages. In principle, it is worth replacing every room with LED lighting. By integrating LEDs into your own home, there are endless opportunities to save electricity at home.
