How can you significantly reduce energy consumption and thus overall energy costs at your facility…retrofitting with LED canopy lights is certainly a great way to start. Perfect for example in gas stations, these LED lights burn longer and far more efficient than more traditional style bulbs. With lifespans that can range from 50-100,000 hours, the LED canopy lights are a product that you can certainly get behind.

Given their intensity and brightness, these canopy lights are phenomenal when it comes to outdoor use. People want to feel safe, and in order to feel safe they need the surrounding area to be lit up. Only LED lites can do this to the point where drivers become less anxious and subsequently feel more secure. Isn’t that what you would want for your facility…

Additionally, as these types of LED lights offer greater flexibility as far as being able to equip them with various controls, they tend to save even more in energy costs. So why should you investigate retrofitting with LED canopy lights…The reasons speak for themselves really. But if you look briefly at a quick comparison between let’s say for example, metal halide lights and LED lighting products you will certainly see the reasons are quite clear:

• High intensity discharge lamps take 3 to 5 minutes for full output and sometimes up to 20 minutes to stabilize the color temperature. LED light output stabilizes in less than 1 second.
• Another characteristic of HID lamps is that if switched off, they cannot be restarted until a waiting period of 5-10 minutes. LED lights can be switched off and on immediately.
• HID lamps come in basically 2 color temperatures, either cool white for metal halide or yellow 2100-2300 Kelvin for HPS (high pressure sodium).
• LED lights operate at 120F to 180F while metal halide lamps operate at 1500F to 1800F. This means a more efficient overall luminosity as well as a more effective end result.
• Potentially the number one advantage that LED canopy lights have over halides or any other type of lighting fixture for that matter is in the average lifespan. Boasting anywhere from 50,000 to over 100,000 hours of life, the LED canopy light is guaranteed to save you time and money,
• While perhaps the initial output may be a little bit more as far as the LED bulb goes, the overall cost is significantly less. You will save with LED canopy lights. Because of the fact that there is much less maintenance involved, because the lifespan is a great deal longer and because the product is in general that much better, you can rest assured that LED canopy lights will make your wallet smile.

Ideal for warehouses and just about anywhere that requires a rugged, waterproof and long lasting light source, the new UFO style LED lights are certainly making a huge splash in the lighting industry. Easy to install and more attractive than some other types of lighting, these UFO LED lites are at the top of their class. If we consider similar products featuring for example metal halide or CFL lamps, we see that the LED UFO’s lifespan is much much longer. Potentially upwards of 100,000 hours, these fixtures require very little maintenance, which equates to big savings for you in the long run. And who wouldn’t want that…

Smaller and more compact than other forms of LED lighting, The UFO LED lights still put out the same amazing brightness and luminosity and its durable construction make it great for spaces that may be more inclined toward rougher weather or more unpredictable elements. Given their design and functionality, light is sent downward extremely effectively. In the end these UFO LED products are cheaper to run, more efficient in function and certainly eye catching and fashionable.

By now you've heard all of the hype about LED bulbs and all the benefits of using LEDs over traditional incandescent or HPS bulbs. For individuals in private homes, switching to LED lighting will help save money and electric. It also is good for the environment. This is the basic understanding of LED products as we have come to know. If you are like me, you are in the process of switching to LED, but you are waiting for your old incandescent or CFL bulbs to burn out. You spent money for those and don’t want them to go to the landfill before they are expired.

Energy efficient LED tube lights.

However, for business and industry, the urgency is now. Replacing traditional bulbs with LED lights is an urgent and immediate requirement. Don't put this off any longer because each day you are spending more money than you should. You are wasting electric. Places that have lights on for more than 8 hours a day are doing themselves a very strong disservice by continuing to operate their old HPS, florescent, or even incandescent light fixtures.

Think about making the switch now. The savings by switching to LED are immense and immediate. Each day you wait costs you more money. Some warehouses, department stores, municipalities and other areas that keep lights on more than 15 hours a day often report their payoff in ONLY ONE MONTH. If you are operating a grid of lights with multiple fixtures burning more than 5,000 watts of HPS, CFL (fluorescent) or Metal Halide, or incandescent, energy-savings of LED lighting will be remarkable.

The cost of upgrading the bulbs now and throwing out those old bulbs will pay off in such a short amount of time that it does not make sense to continue wasting electricity with traditional bulbs. The amount of time it takes to see a return on the investment in new bulbs varies based on the number of hours of light you're using.

Generally speaking, a facility with lights burning 24/7 will see a payoff within a few weeks. Once the lower electric bill pays for the cost of the LED bulbs and their installation, the ongoing savings in electric is momentous. Furthermore, the long lifespan of LED bulbs means you will not have to replace them for many years. Long Lasting LED's will last more than 50,000 hours, around 5.5 years if used 24 hours a day. This means that ONLY after 5.5 years of use you will start noticing a decrease on the brightness of the bulb.

The amount of daily hours of lighting use is the most important aspect to determine the payoff time and the ROI.

The analysis is quite simple. Calculate the lighting amount of your electric bill. Contact LEDRadiant for an estimate and we will provide you with a free site survey to show you how quickly you can realize ROI on new lighting.
