LED street lighting
The use of LED lamps for street lighting is no longer something new, and this is not surprising, because in addition to reliability, safety and durability, these lamps are very economical; thus, energy savings when switching to LED lighting reach 80%.
LED luminaires for street lighting are now widely used, not only as lanterns for street and boulevard lighting, but also for lighting adjacent areas near entrances, parking lots, areas of restaurants, cafes, as well as open commercial areas.
These lighting fixtures are highly resistant to adverse weather conditions, impact resistance and other mechanical influences that can damage the lighting fixture. They are protected from moisture and dust, from vibrations and temperature extremes. The strong and reliable housing fully protects the LED lamp of such a lantern.
LED lighting fixtures are not only economical, but also safe. They use high-quality materials, among which there is definitely no mercury or harmful gases that have a harmful effect on the environment. Accordingly, there are no disposal problems, as is the case with various fluorescent lamps.
LED lamps are particularly popular among home garden owners, where landscape design elements are favorably highlighted by light with the desired color temperature.
Speaking about the color temperature of LED floodlights, it is particularly noteworthy that there are wide opportunities for designing original lighting solutions when decorating lakes, fountains, squares, curbs and a wide variety of architectural elements.
So, here are the main advantages of such lamps:
-
significant energy savings.
-
durability (more than 50,000 hours).
-
a robust housing that can withstand all weather conditions.
-
high quality and safe materials.
-
convenient light for highway lighting, which is especially important for drivers.
-
easy installation and minimal maintenance.
What are LED street lights? First of all, these are lanterns for roads with car traffic. The most powerful LED light sources are used here, which guarantees maximum safety on the road at night.
They are followed by spotlights, it is these lighting devices that illuminate the facades of buildings, parking lots, various objects and similar areas. There are also special duralight strips, but this is a purely decorative LED element that looks like a glowing cable.
LED outdoor lighting is very useful from an economic point of view. Only a small amount of electricity (eg 100 watts) is sufficient to illuminate a sufficiently large area. For comparison: the luminous flux of an LED lamp that consumes 100 watts is about 10,000 lumens, this is the same as 6 conventional incandescent lamps, that is, a saving of more than 80%.
Even LED lights have already started to be used to illuminate the stations.
