2Ft 9 Watt Growlight LED Lamp

LED stands for light emitting diode. LED lighting products produce light up to 90% more efficiently than incandescent light bulbs. An electrical current passes through a microchip, which illuminates the tiny light sources we call LEDs and the result is visible light. To prevent performance issues, the heat LEDs produce is absorbed into a heat sink. The useful life of LED lighting products is defined differently than that of other light sources, such as incandescent or compact fluorescent lighting (CFL). LEDs typically do not “burn out” or fail. Instead, they experience ‘lumen depreciation’, wherein the brightness of the LED dims slowly over time. Unlike incandescent bulbs, LED “lifetime” is established on a prediction of when the light output decreases by 30 percent.

LED lights are energy-efficient, long-lasting, and emit less heat. They use up to 90% less energy than incandescent bulbs, last up to 40 times longer, and offer high-quality light output. LED lights are also versatile and suitable for any space, making them an excellent choice for those seeking to save energy and improve lighting quality. Watts don’t tell you much about an LED’s brightness – lumens do. For LEDs, the number of lumens measures brightness. The higher the lumens, the brighter the bulb.
