An ENERGY STAR Certified LED Bulb:
- Produces light approximately 90% more efficiently than incandescent light bulbs.
- Has a long lifespan of 50,000 hours or more, which surpasses both the incandescent bulb and the CFL by thousands of hours.
- Is durable, so it performs well outdoors and in cold temperatures.
- They even come in dimmable models to create the right ambiance.
Efficiency in a light bulb is measured by the number of lumens per watt it provides. The number of lumens shows how bright a bulb is and the watts identify how much energy it uses.
This chart below compares wattage for incandescent bulbs and the equivalent lumens (light output) to the wattage used by ENERGY STAR qualified CFLs and LEDs.
