The primary benefit of LED technology is the tremendous cost
savings for the user as a result of eliminating replacement
cost, lowering power consumption, and reducing operating
temperatures. Moreover, LED lamps improve efficiency by
providing reliable status indication.
When cold, and incandescent filament draws ten times as much
current as it does during normal operation. The initial
powering of hundreds of incandescent bulbs simultaneously
causes significant voltage surges that lead to lamp
failures.
LED lamps are designed with series resistors to limit the
operating current, resulting in no cold filament current
variation.
Designed as drop-in replacements, LED lamps offer several
advantages compared to incandescent bulbs.
