Technology
Incandescent light bulbs
The cheapest light source when it comes to purchase cost. The massive heat loss, however, makes them very inefficient. Over 90% of the consumed energy is converted into heat and only the remaining 10% into light. Their service life is also low – 1,000 hours on average.
Halogen bulbs
About 30% more efficient than incandescent bulbs. Illuminate at the full power right after you switch them on, can be dimmed, and their purchase cost is lower than that of LED bulbs. Their operating costs are considerably higher, so they are mainly used in places where you need strong light for a short time. Their service life is 2,000 to 3,000 hours.
Roughly 75% more efficient than incandescent bulbs. After switching, it takes a while before they reach their maximum brightness, so they aren’t suitable for places where lights are often turned on and off. Lose their original luminance after a few years. Their service life ranges between 6,000 and 20,000 hours.
The latest and most efficient technology. Their service life is remarkable - usually between 20,000 and 50,000 hours. Achieve high brightness with minimum energy consumption. A 9W LED bulb is equivalent to a 60W halogen lamp.
