The advent of high-powered and high-efficiency LEDs have allowed for myriad lighting applications. Prior to the 1970’s, LEDs were too expensive and dim to allow for use other than indicator lights on expensive lab equipment. As a result of many technological advances, LEDs lighting options are highly energy-efficient and application-rich.
As with incandescent lighting, LED lights allow for control over both warmth and wattage. Additional benefits to this type of technology is size – in architectural interior lighting applications, recessed lighting no longer means tedious installation and bulky housing, they are thin, lightweight and easy to install.
LED lighting is not limited to interior architectural applications. LED lighting technology can be found where any previous lighting technology is utilized, with manufacturers creating retrofit kits to allow consumers to upgrade their existing products to superior LED technology.
