Make November The 5th Safer And More Fun With LED Lights

Bonfire Night comes but once a year and everybody loves it; the crackle of the flames and the colourful whizz-bang of the fireworks all combine to make it a special occasion.

As always, however, safety is paramount, so it’s important that your garden is adequately illuminated, to enable you to see what you’re doing at all times, especially when lighting that blue touch-paper.

That’s where outdoor LED lighting will come into its own.

A Vast Improvement On Halogens

LED lights have quite a few advantages over more conventional forms of lighting such as halogens which, for the most part, are the type they’ll replace.

Garden lights can be quite troublesome to replace in comparison with other types. They’re often to be found in high up, out-of-the-way places, sometimes requiring a ladder to be reached, so installing lights that have a 50,000 hour, 17 year life-span is highly recommended.

LED floodlights, the most widely-used of the outdoor LED lights, are considerably more reliable than their traditional predecessors. Being all-in-one units, there’s less likelihood of a component failure occurring, as there really are fewer components to fail.

The 20W LED Floodlight, for example, comprises the fitting, enclosing a single SMD (Surface Mounted Diode), a standard twin and earth cable and that’s pretty much it.

It’s incredibly simple to install, requiring just 20 watts of electricity, so you’ll be able to swap it right over with your existing, power-thirsty halogen model, to enjoy energy-efficient LED illumination for many years to come.

Energy-Saving & Security-Conscious

Hugely energy-efficient, this LED floodlight will replace a 200W halogen model, and cost you a fraction of the price to run.

If you replaced just one halogen floodlight with this LED equivalent, and used it for 8 hours for 365 days, assuming the cost of electricity to be 15 pence per kWh, you would save an enormous £78.84.

To make even more savings, and to increase your level of home security, you could invest in an LED floodlight such as the 50W LED, 4000 Lumens. This is part of a range, all of which include a built-in PIR (Passive Infra-Red) motion-sensor.

The motion-sensing feature ensures that no energy is wasted on illumination when nobody’s about, but will detect movement and spring to life the split second it occurs. It won’t only save you pounds on wasted electricity, it could also save you a considerable amount of cash on your insurance premiums too!

This LED floodlight, as with the entire range, has a wide 120° beam angle, so you can be sure the whole bonfire staging area will be adequately and safely lit during the festivities.

And speaking of festivities, there’s also a selection of LED RGB floodlights that will be perfect to make your celebrations go with even more of a bang.

Each comes complete with its own, dedicated RF controller, enabling you to combine varying amounts of red, green and blue light to create a dazzling array of colour-changing illumination, as well as the brilliant cool white (6000K) colour temperature with which all LED bulbs are endowed.

Not available to the RGB LED, but as an option for all others, is the warm white (3000K). This will prove ideal for installations requiring a mellower, more relaxing quality of light, and adds yet another layer of choice to this excellent product.

Of course, all outdoor LED lights have an IP65 (Ingress Protection) Rating, which guarantees that they’re impervious to dust and also able to withstand bombardment from low pressure jets of water from every direction.

LED floodlights will improve your home’s security, guarantee you have sufficient illumination out of doors and provide a return on your investment within a very short time-frame. In fact, when you see what they can do for you, you’ll be clamouring to purchase LED wall lights and LED decking lights to complete your collection.
