What's the Difference between Energy-saving Lamps and LED Lamps?

  The differences between energy-saving lamps and LED lamps are as follows:

  1.Brightness: LED lamps are brighter than energy-saving lamps, LED chips are composed of light-emitting diodes, through the electric - light conversion, eliminating the electrical and thermal losses, the electrical energy as much as possible into the light energy. And energy-saving lamps are still the main light-emitting material is tungsten filament, through the conversion of electricity - heat - light, there will be part of the heat loss. Therefore, under the same conditions, LED lights are a little brighter.

  2.Power Consumption: In the case of the same brightness, LED lights consume 1 kWh for 1000 hours, while ordinary energy-saving lamps consume 1 kWh for 100 hours. Therefore, LED lights are the most energy-saving products in the lighting field.

  3.Service life: Because the life of LED lights is affected by the chip of light-emitting diode, there is no energy-saving lamps with melted filament, so the service life of LED lights is longer, up to 100,000 hours, while the service life of ordinary energy-saving lamps can be up to 10,000 hours. With the use of time, the brightness of ordinary energy-saving lamps will get darker and darker, and finally broken. But LED lamps, although this will also occur, but the service life is much longer than ordinary energy-saving lamps.

  4.Environmental protection: LED lights do not contain mercury and other harmful components, can be recycled, more environmentally friendly than energy-saving lamps.

  5.Heat dissipation: the heat dissipation of LED lamps is not very good, but now manufacturers are overcoming such defects, the development of heat sinks is also under way. The heat dissipation of ordinary energy-saving lamps is really good.

  Overall, LED lamps and energy-saving lamps have their own advantages and disadvantages. LED lamps have advantages in brightness, power consumption, service life and environmental protection, but need to be further improved in terms of heat dissipation. Energy-saving lamps have advantages in heat dissipation and cost. The specific choice of which lamps need to be based on the use of the scene and personal needs to decide.
