As an energy supply company, we offer energy audits and advice on how to replace high energy consuming bulbs with low cost LED lights. Order our high light output LED tubes to replace your fluorescent tubes. LED lights save up to 80% of your electricity costs and is very cost effective. All that has changed as the cost of the tubes has halved in less than six months due to increased volumes and new technology that sees more than 100 lumens per watt being emitted. These supplier price decreases mean that our tubes are now well priced and can fully return their purchase price within three years of purchase and this leaves a full additional three years of savings. These fluorescent tube replacements are only 50% as energy efficient as the fluorescent tubes they replace so the cost dynamics are really less in their favour than downlights where a 3W LED can replace a 35W halogen light. To make matters even better, consider the newer high power LEDs which are putting out more lumens and that means we can go down to 16W and still get the same light output as a 36W fluorescent tube. So buying a 60 watt bulb from brand X or Y or Z will not result in a dramatically different lumen output and you can have a high degree of confidence buying by the number of watts. That is the difference between a light level that allows reading and one that will cause eye strain. The lighting revolution is no different to the communication and information technology revolutions that have driven our development. You are not about to get a beach tan from your lighting, but UV light is an issue, and it will impact fabrics and paintings. So there is no safety issue and no glass that can shatter and cut. We’ve talked about lumen efficiency per watt of electricity. That’s a great reason to replace your lights with LED lights! So mood lighting is possible and not only can you dim them, but change color as you need to. It has only been 20 years since Africa was introduced to the cellphone. In that time, millions of people have gained access to a communication tool that has changed lives and kept friends and families in touch in places that would never have been reached by land lines. What will drive the change is the cost reductions in all three technologies. A 2 watt solar cell with a battery and a series of small LED lights can light up a small house and now with improvements in quality and longevity, the upfront cost of purchase can be recovered very quickly. Besides the cost recovery angle, the quality of the led lights is far superior to the alternatives anyway, and so students can study with cool white light that does not stress the eyes. Perhaps not as fast as the cellphone, but like the cellphone, it will bring welcome changes to the social and educational environment in Africa. A World Bank assessment of lighting in Tanzania found that 37% of people (the largest single grouping in the study) wanted improved lighting for the impact it would make on the education of their children. The flicker and poor light quality often leads to eyestrain and concentration problems with shorter study times being the result. Education is the key to development (and to buying good quality LED products), and until we recognise that and do everything needed to improve it, we will not see the growth in Africa that we all wish for.
