LED lighting is the best replacement for incandescent lamps

　　In recent years, energy-saving lamps , LED lamps, etc. Many new products have been gradually phased out and replaced the traditional incandescent light sources. The U.S. government from January 1, 2014 officially announced in the United States a total ban on the production and import of incandescent and existing products have been produced , you can normally continue to sell . Thus, if American consumers want to continue to buy traditional incandescent light sources should seize the time , though now you can buy in the store , but slowly this outdated way of lighting will disappear from the U.S. Department of Homeland . When the market all the incandescent light sources sold in stores in the U.S. Instead, you will see the fluorescent lamps, energy-saving lamps or LED lamps.

　　Maybe some consumers will be challenged because of energy-saving lamps and LED and other than traditional incandescent bulbs in price a lot more expensive . In the Amazon shopping site search we can find common incandescent light bulbs with just a few cents, and energy-saving lamps and LED lights on the expensive price of at least 8 to 10 times . But on the other hand , incandescent light sources in the power consumption is also about 10 times the energy-saving lamps or LED lamps , so the replacement of the light source can save quite a bit of energy . Also in the life of the bulb , but also better than ordinary incandescent lamps and energy-saving LED lights lot less. So no matter from which point of view, the use of some of the price a little expensive energy-saving lamps or LED lights have a number of more cost-effective than incandescent .

　　But there is a drawback on the energy-saving lamps have to mention that you must use a small amount of mercury. Therefore, energy-saving lamps in time to throw away or out of the trash can not be arbitrary , but need to be sent to specialized recycling centers . If you accidentally break the average consumer of energy-saving lamps, should actively take protective measures . If it is in the children's room or a pet room to break the energy-saving lamps , ventilation need more than 10 minutes before continuing to clean up debris . Although only a small amount of mercury , but we should minimize the negative impact . If you have children at home , worried that debris will hurt the baby bulbs , LED light source may be a better choice .

　　Currently, most candidates are replacing incandescent lamps by energy-saving lamps not LED lights, the main reason for this phenomenon comes from the cost. But now in addition to the higher cost of the LED light source outside , low energy consumption , low heat, long life ( about 20 years ) and so let the LED and energy-saving lamps have a more obvious advantage compared . According to a survey report shows that in the United States if the use of a traditional incandescent bulb life is exhausted, need to pay a total of about $ 200 in electricity . And if replaced by an equivalent brightness LED light source , after two decades of their life , will generate a total of $ 21 in electricity .
