Towards Revolutionary Lighting Technology

One step backward and a big step forward. This is how the phase of lighting technology goes. Starting from the creation of the incandescent bulbs in the 1800s, lighting technology has now gone into the more revolutionary lighting scheme brought by all the systems currently on the list of those vying to fill in the position of the incandescent lamps. Why? This is because of the rich history of incandescent bulbs. Since its creation, even before Thomas Edison released his version of incandescent bulb, it has been the lighting solution in every field and purpose. This has served billions of people from all parts of the world. It has managed to keep its purpose for almost two centuries. The vying substitute envisions of outsmarting what it the incandescent bulb has done and to stay for much longer time.

Light is an important aspect in every business. High-ceilinged places such as offices, warehouses, gyms, garages, stadiums etc. requires a lighting system that can illuminate the entire area adequately. A properly illuminated work space is a place conducive to work or play. The type of lighting system required here is the high bay lighting. This type of lighting system is so powerful because it considers the height and area of the place to be illuminated. Usually, high intensity fluorescent (HIF) technology or high intensity discharge (HID) lamps are employed here. Although both has proven its effectiveness in delivering adequate light, its operational cost is high because both needs a lot of electrical energy to excite the mercury vapour to produce light. With such issue, LED technology introduces yet another of its advance function, the high bay LED lighting.

Industrial lighting has a now better option on energy saving by employing high bay LED lights. Comparable to the function the HIFs and HIDs does, it also delivers the same quality of light; the same brightness and luminance. It can guarantee an enormous energy saving ranging from 50 65%. It also doesnt emit unwanted temperature that will in the end be nothing but thermal pollution. It also lasts for around 50,000 hours or five times more than its counterpart, so replacing them will never be a hassle since it just has to be done once in approximately 10 years. The hassle and danger of constantly replacing them is eliminated. Flickering and glare is not a by-product of its light, so it doesnt irritate the eyes.

Acquiring high bay LED lights may be more expensive compared to acquiring its counterpart, however, due to the enormous energy saving and much lower electrical cost that the consumer can experience, the acquiring cost is greatly justified. It was developed and designed be complacent with the required high bay lighting. Moreover, it was designed with the aim of eliminating the possible contamination due to the mercury present in some conventional lighting system.

With the ever increasing lighting needs of the world, LED is making every effort into addressing all the lighting needs of the world. Be it on domestic lights to a more complex industrial lighting system. LED technology has stored something especially for that.
