A FEW NOTES ABOUT CONSERVATION and why we supply LED lighting tools and other products that use LEDs instead of traditional incandescent or fluorescent lights -
LEDs are the light source of the future. Incandescent bulbs waste 90% of the electricity they burn by generating heat - not light. Fluorescent bulbs contain mercury, a toxic material that pollutes our landfills. As well, both incandescent and fluorescent bulbs are fragile - they break easily and compared to LEDs, they have a short life. Many jurisdictions are banning incandescent bulbs in 2012. LEDs are quickly replacing incandescent and fluorescent bulbs in many applications because they are bright, they don't break, they don't get hot, they are eco-friendly and they typically last for more than 50,000 hr.
