LIGHT TYPE


LED

LED lighting has come a long way in such a short period of time. The man who is
recognized for conceiving the light bulb, Thomas Alva Edison, says that he
“tested no fewer than 6,000 vegetable growths, and ransacked the world for the
most suitable filament material” as part of the process of inventing the light
bulb, which got a patent in 1880 (Source). Edison is said to have acknowledged
that this was tedious and very demanding work, particularly on those he employed
to help him. Having done its work for over 100 years, the bulb, as invented by
Edison, is gradually being replaced by a light emitting diode (LED).

 

While LED lighting has been around for some years now, many questions about it
still exist

 


TYPES OF LED LIGHTS

Different kinds of LED lights have been created over the years. Let’s look at
some of them below:

Miniature LEDs: Are extremely small and come in a single color or shape. You
will see this LED in remote controls, calculators, and mobile phones used as
indicators.

Dimmable LEDs: Work by creating a dimming effect. You will find this type of
light used for creating a unique setting, such as in bedrooms, where someone may
need to create a romantic setting, or the cabin of a plane seeking to replicate
different times of the day.

High Power LEDs: Deliver higher levels of brightness as a result of several
improvements that have been made to LED technology.

Lighting LEDs: Are the light bulbs found in the home and often take the shape of
the traditional Edison light bulb that has been in use for many years.

Flashing LEDs: These are used in places where the idea is to attract attention,
such as in storefront signage, other kinds of displays at exhibitions, and
automobile indicators and lighting.  

 


INCANDESCENT LIGHT

The light bulb is one of the wonders of the modern world. Found nearly
everywhere on the planet, light bulbs are so common and widespread that it’s
easy to forget how dependent we are on them. The light bulb is an electric light
source that’s technically called a lamp. This term is, of course, also more
commonly used by consumers to mean a portable type of lighting such as a table
lamp or a desk lamp.

The most common type of “lamp” or bulb is the incandescent light bulb. These
types of light bulbs are the oldest and simplest form of bulb technology, dating
back to Thomas Edison’s experiments with filament types back in 1879.

How Incandescent Bulbs Work

An incandescent bulb works on the principle of incandescence, a general term
meaning light produced by heat. In an incandescent type of bulb, an electric
current is passed through a thin metal filament, heating the filament until it
glows and produces light.

So, how do incandescent light bulbs work? Incandescent bulbs typically use a
tungsten filament because of tungsten’s high melting point. A tungsten filament
inside a light bulb can reach temperatures as high as 4,500 degrees Fahrenheit.
A glass enclosure, the glass “bulb”, prevents oxygen in the air from reaching
the hot filament. Without this glass covering and the vacuum it helps create,
the filament would overheat and oxidize in a matter or moments.

After the electricity has made its way through the tungsten filament, it goes
down another wire and out of the bulb via the metal portion at the side of the
socket. It goes into the lamp or fixture and out a neutral wire.

This is an elegantly simple system and it works quite well at producing light.
It’s perfect for a wide range of applications, cheap and easy to manufacture,
and is compatible with either AC or DC current.


ARE INCANDESCENT BULBS DIMMABLE?

Yes – by default, all incandescent light bulbs are dimmable.

There are exceptions to this rule. For example, certain specialized designs –
such as particular types of colored light bulbs – are non-dimmable due to the
manufacturing process. However, these will always be noted as “non-dimmable.” In
general, you can trust incandescent light bulbs to be dimmable.


WHAT IS THE AVERAGE INCANDESCENT BULB LIFE?

Each bulb is different, but the average incandescent bulb will have a lifespan
of at least 1000 hours. There are many bulb designs that last longer than this.
Before buying a bulb, be sure to check out the product details for the listed
lifespan.

CFL bulbs, which are technically a type of incandescent light bulb, tend to have
a longer lifespan, lasting as much as ten times longer than standard
incandescent lights.


WHAT COLOR IS AN INCANDESCENT BULB?

Incandescent color temperature usually ranges from white to yellow. However,
each bulb is different.

If it’s important to you, check out the listed color temperature of a bulb
before purchase. The higher the color temperature, the “cooler” the bulb is,
which means it produces a whiter light. When the color temperature is lower, the
bulb gives off a “warm” or yellow light output.

If you’re looking for light bulbs in a more unusual color, such as red or blue,
check out colored light bulbs instead.


A CHART SHOWING COLOR TEMPERATURES FOR LIGHTINGARE INCANDESCENT BULBS ENERGY
EFFICIENT?

Incandescent bulbs are not the most energy efficient.

Only around 10% of the electric power used by an incandescent light bulb
produces light. The other 90% is emitted as heat. Because of this high heat
output you’ll see incandescent bulbs used as heating lamps, grow bulbs and
incubator lights where heat output is actually an asset.


FINDING ENERGY SAVING ALTERNATIVES FOR THE INCANDESCENT BULB

With incandescent bulbs being as energy inefficient as they are, several newer
technologies are now vying to replace them, including CFL bulbs (compact
fluorescent light bulbs) and LEDs (light-emitting diodes). Some legislation is
even in place to phase out incandescent light bulbs in favor of more energy
efficient forms of lighting.

If you want the the most energy efficient light bulb type, go with LED light
bulbs. You can easily replace an incandescent bulb with an LED bulb instead.
Just swap out an old light bulb in a lamp or chandelier for its modern LED
counterpart. Yes, you can put LED bulbs in regular fixtures, just as long as the
bulb base and wattage is compatible with the fixture.
