Which is the Most Energy Saving Light Bulbs

Incandescent bulbs

Their main disadvantage is that 90% of the power is produced as heat instead of light due to this reason they got heat-up while they are switched on.

Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs)

LEDs are considered as the most Energy Saving Light Bulbs to lighten up our homes. They save up to 90% of energy in comparison of Incandescent bulbs and their lifespan is approximately 50000 hours. Most important thing is that they are mercury-free and very solid.


Compact Fluorescent Lights (CFLs)

CFL is good source of energy saving bulbs, they are getting less heat-up while switched on they are saving energy up to 70% in comparison of Incandescent bulbs. But major disadvantage of these bulbs is that, they have mercury that is dangerous for human health while these get broken.

How to Conserve Energy

Make sure you change to your conservative holiday lighting series with LEDs to save energy and money. Check-out the label of the energy saving light bulbs before buying. 1600 lumens is equal to a 100-watt of incandescent bulb. The higher the number of watt, the brightness of the light will increase. Save energy for future otherwise it is trouble for coming generation.
