Making small changes in your home can save you money, time, and stress. One change that we heartily recommend is switching to LED lights.
When LED lights are available at affordable rates, it just doesn’t make sense to stick with energy-guzzling incandescent bulbs.
Here are seven reasons why you shouldn’t delay replacing incandescent bulbs with LED lights.
LED light Bulbs last longer
One of the best benefits that come from embracing LED lights is that you no longer would need to replace bulbs often.
Let’s face it. Incandescent light bulbs usually don’t last for more than a year. And, as often as not, bulbs go kaput on you when it’s most inconvenient. Plus, changing bulbs, especially those installed in hard-to-reach places is a task in itself.
With LED bulbs, you won’t have to worry about this problem. Why? Because LED bulbs last up to 25 years! Yup, you heard us right. That’s 25 times longer than incandescent bulbs. Now you see why more and more people are turning their back on these bulbs.
LED bulbs consume less energy
Electricity costs are increasing — there’s no getting around that fact. Nevertheless, there are several things you can do to avoid higher electricity bills. Replacing old incandescent bulbs with LED bulbs is a good starting point.
Why? Glad you asked.
You see, incandescent bulbs are the wasting kind. They waste 90% of electricity they consume. If you dozens of them in the house, your electricity bill is likely to be on the higher side.
LED bulbs, on the other hand, don’t believe in wasting. They are 80% more energy-efficient than incandescent bulbs — a feature that helps keep your energy bills low.

LED light bulbs are available in a wide range of colours. At LiquidLEDs, you can find an unmatched selection of LED bulbs in different colours, making them perfect for absolutely any sort of occasion.

In short, with these coloured LED bulbs, the possibilities are endless.
Smart Lighting
You can easily by Smart LED bulbs if you have Internet of Things functionality available in your home. These bulbs can be controlled using a mobile app or even a digital assistant such as Google Home or Amazon Alexa. You can control the light bulbs with voice, as well as over Wi-Fi from your smartphone.
LED Light Bulbs are More Durable
With LED bulbs, you get double the benefit. They not only last much longer than incandescent bulbs but are also less prone to breakage. Thanks to their durability, they make for a great choice for a busy family home. Plus, unlike incandescent bulbs, LEDs don’t contain mercury, which means in the event of a breakage, you don’t have to worry about your child or pet getting exposed to harmful elements.
LED Bulbs are Safe and More Eco Friendly
Like we’ve said before, traditional bulbs produce a lot of heat. As a result of which, they can be fire hazard at times. With LED light bulbs, you won’t have to worry about this. They not only work at a much lower wattage but also don’t produce excess heat.
Also, since LEDs use far less electricity, they are more eco friendly. By consuming less power, thy help lower the fossil fuels consumption. Moreover, LEDs contain more recyclable materials compared to old incandescent bulbs.
LEDs are Made for Wide Range of Fitting
Regardless of how unique or old your light fittings or lamps are, you can easily find an LED bulb that’s right for you. Because LEDs are available in all kinds of sizes and shapes and for all sorts of fitting types, you can easily make the switch.
LEDs help you open your home to a wide range of lighting options. They help you give your home a new look and save on your energy spending. Plus, they are much safer.
That being said, not all LED bulbs are made equal. We recommend you go for LEDs with a CRI rating of 90 and above. These bulbs emit the most balanced light. At LiquidLEDs, we offer customers only CRI90+ LED bulbs, so you can rest assured knowing you’ll always get the best quality when you shop with us.
