LED lighting for your home, studio, or office
LED lights offer ultra-low power consumption, with very low heat for the light generated. Not only do you get more light for far less wattage, air-conditioned buildings have less waste heat to deal with, saving further energy.
Just posted is my review of several LED bulbs (Par30, Par38, MR16).
The best LEDs offer outstanding color quality. The worst LEDs are dim and dingy and/or badly off-color (bluish or greenish)— terrible stuff.
There is a lot of garbage out there on the market; LEDs and bulbs come in a wide range of quality. The best ones are expensive, but expensive ones can still be turds. Caveat emptor.
Included is my analysis of the economics of replacing halogen lighting with LED lighting. For my situation, LED lights offer a massively better ROI (return on investment) that makes solar look terrible by comparison (I’ve researched the cost and benefits of solar power for my home extensively, including multiple quotes for installation, both this year and two years ago, along with other research).
