Pros & Cons LED Light For BTO House |
The cost of living in Singapore has become so high and it is
not showing any signs of abating soon. This has forced home
owners to look for various methods to maintain their costs
as low as they possibly can. If you are planning to get a
BTO house soon it is also important to consider early some
cost-cutting measures that will help you live comfortably in
your home. Led lighting has come in handy for a number of
homes in Singapore and even future home owners will
appreciate the many benefits it offers. This form of
lighting lowers power costs and makes the house look
stylish. Below are some of the pros and cons of using this
kind of lighting.
Pros
Longer Life
When compared to the normal light bulbs, Led lighting has a
much longer life. Science has proven that these bulbs are
capable of having a life of up to 100,000 hours. This can be
equated to 11 years when such bulbs are used continuously or
22 years if used periodically. They do not also burn out
completely as it is common with the ordinary bulbs leaving
you in complete darkness. They just turn less bright and
this will avoid the hassles of looking for candles in the
middle of the night. The convenience and advantages of LED
lightning are simply amazing.
Ecologically Friendly
They are also ecologically friendly and hence great to light
your BTO house. The conventional bulbs have fluorescent and
neon plus other additional heavy metals that can have
adverse effects on the environment like mercury. Upon
disposal into the environment, all the harmful substances
are usually released into the environment. They poison the
flora, fauna and even affect human beings. The Led lighting
does not contain any harmful elements that pose a threat to
the environment. Given their long life, and being
ecologically friendly they ensure a safe environment for
human beings, animals and plants.
Durability
The most suitable lighting option for the HDB houses in
Singapore ought to be highly durable and be able to
withstand minor vibrations that are common. The fluorescents
and ordinary bulbs can easily break and stop working when
subjected to such small shocks. This Led lighting is rugged
in nature and as a result of this it is able to withstand
some conditions that are very rough. This lighting option is
great as it can even withstand construction sites near your
home. You can use this option in your house without a worry
of any impacts. The lighting option is also great to use in
Singapore as it does not blow up easily when the weather
gets very hot throughout the year. They are able to operate
despite the high temperatures experienced in the country
without failing. They are so durable that you will only have
to worry about doing some routine checkups but not
replacement before their lifespan ends.
High Energy Efficiency
This type of lighting is capable of delivering high energy
efficiency levels that is capable of going up to 90% as
opposed to the 20% of the conventional incandescent bulbs.
This is to mean that over 90% of all the electrical energy
that comes from the house mains is successfully converted to
light. It is therefore important for every BTO house to be
fitted with this type of lighting as it will release some
energy to some other critical sectors of the country that
will boost economic growth.
Flexible Designs
A modern lifestyle dictates that the systems in use ought to
be convenient and highly flexible for the comfort of users.
This type of lighting offers just that by making life better
all over Singapore. The ordinary bulbs are only capable of
producing a single type of light that can only be either
switched on or off nothing more. In the case of the ordinary
bulbs, the user has no say in the quantity of lighting they
get or even change the color. Led lighting however, comes
with a number of goodies like the ability to control the
brightness and color of light emitted by the system. This
flexibility is extremely important if you wish to have a
certain effect inside your BTO house or other areas.
Cons
Led lighting has a huge number of benefits, but
unfortunately it is also associated with some cons as
nothing is perfect. It is expensive to buy the new bulbs in
the first instance when switching to this system but the
prices are falling with every passing year. It is also
important to note that not all bulbs in this system can be
dimmed when necessary. You may also encounter some issues
when using the existing dimmers especially when
retrofitting. There are also some instances where it has
been reported that this system failed when used in some
areas with high temperature conditions.
Due to the fact that this system is fairly new in Singapore,
getting accurate information and specifications could be
difficult at times. This is as a result of a huge
comprehension difference between the makers of LEDs and the
lighting community. This leads to the many issues regarding
the use of LEDs like thermal management and other relates
issues. There are instances where LEDs have caused radio
interference but this is when poorly designed lights are
used as the well designed ones have no problem whatsoever.
The power supplies in these lighting systems have not been
standardized and in case of bulb failure then the whole
power supply ought to be replaced. When you go for lower
quality of LEDs, it will present a lot of issues especially
flickering which many users have complained about in the
past.
There are various isolated complaints by people claiming
that the color quality and light output changes with the
duration of time that the bulb lasts, but this is a normal
problem that affects all types of light bulbs. The LEDs
require their heat sinks and hence it becomes practically
impossible in some cases to install them lying on their
side. This is due to the fact that their heat sinks flutes
will not function in an efficient manner. |
