Life Expectancy of An LED Bulb
Life expectancy of an LED
Life of an LED
LED bulbs last up to 25 times longer than al halogen or traditional incandescent bulb. LED bulbs have a life expectancy typically between 20000 to 30000 hours. To compare, if we assume you use your lights 8 hours a day, 365 days a year, that’s 7 to 10 years an LED they could run for without the need for changing.
Halogen bulbs tend to last between 1000 to 2000 hours on average, so if we apply the same rule we see that halogens will last 3 to 7 months. That’s a little different of 7 to 17 years! Your initial cost will far out way the cost of replacing the old fashioned bulbs.
Although LED bulbs are more expensive, compared to traditional lighting, the savings in just replacement bulbs alone usually covers the cost of the LED bulb itself.
Then consider LED bulbs use around 90% less energy than halogen/incandescent bulbs, it usually take 5 to 6 months to cover the inital cost of the bulbs you replace and then your saving money.
