LLF's claims that its solid state lighting uses only 12 watts of power, 85 per cent less than traditional incandescent bulbs, and can be retrofitted into existing light sockets. It also insists that it offers a more environmentally friendly alternative to energy efficient CFL bulbs, arguing that its LEDs generate a softer light, use 50 per cent less energy and contain no mercury.
"The combination of Cree's lighting-class LEDs and LLF's lighting-systems technologies should set the stage for Cree to obsolete the light bulb, a 19th century invention that wastes energy and pollutes our environment," said Chuck Swoboda, chief executive officer of Cree, adding that the lighting market is fast approaching a "tipping point" with billions of sockets in existing fixtures now addressable with energy-efficient LED lighting
I don't know i've just got a thing about LED's i guess
They are taking over and very fast too. with good color temperatures too. I think very soon you will not see many incandescent type lights about in shops at all. |
