What Can We Expect From LED Light In The Future
Light Emitting Diode known as LED light has been in existence for many years, basically in niche purposes like small trinkets and signaling. However, owing to LED light being highly energy saving, not to mention technologically superior over other light sources such as incandescent and fluorescent lighting, it is forecasted to reach beyond electronic uses into commercial and home lighting equally. In a recent report by Global Industry Analysts it is predicted that the market for fluorescent and LED light could climb to $97 billion by 2010. The spike in growth would be mostly from construction and industrial development companies.
As more individuals become aware of the energy efficiency of LEDs, the cost of such items as LED bulbs will decline in price. Currently, the price of one LED bulb is considerably higher than the price of incandescent or fluorescent lights. However, the initial price for the bulbs would more than pay for itself in the long run. On average, one incandescent 60-watt bulb endures 1,000 hours whereas one 2-watt LED light bulb endures 60,000 hours. Therefore, one would need to purchase 60 incandescent bulbs for every one LED light bulb.
Home LED light is a cut above the rest when it comes to energy efficiency. As compared to incandescent lighting, LEDs wins hands down where power consumption is involved. For every 60,000 hours of service, incandescent lighting uses approximately 3,600 kWh of electricity where LED lights need 120 kWh. Bottom line: energy efficiency equals a substantial cost savings. LEDs gives off directional illumination. Therefore, it is beneficial as a source of light for reading or spotlighting in the room. Its powerful light productivity also makes it great for outdoor floodlighting and path illumination. These bulbs are now on the market that can replace most halogen or fluorescent bulbs used in the home.
Although LED light may not be useful for all home lighting needs, replacing a few bulbs would have a noticeable affect in the amount of energy used.
LEDs are already used in signs and videos in many indoor and outdoor sports events and concerts. LED video displays and signs are frequently preferred because of their higher brightness, which is important when people are watching a sign or video from a long distance. Other benefits of these video displays are their capacity to incorporate curves and 3-D design. This makes LED displays technologically better than currently available large screen displays. Research and manufacturers in the consumer electronics area are eager to take advantage of this extremely useful technology in future items.
Other uses for LED light incorporate flashlights and key chains, automobile taillights and interior lights, and LED-based projection televisions. LED light is also being used in the military for LED flashlights that is used in night-vision goggles, UV-LED canteen water treatment devices and the sterilization of surgical instruments.
With LED light being more energy efficient and technologically superior to many other light sources, numerous applications are sure to grow. Future generations can expect to consider LED light as the basic light source for most lighting applications.
