Are you looking for ways to reduce your expenses while helping Mother Earth? Switching to LED Light Bulbs is one simple way you can accomplish both goals!

You may have heard how changing your light Bulbs can help save money and save the planet. But you might still confused about what type of bulbs you should change your current light bulbs to.

Many households traditionally use incandescent bulbs in various wattages, which can be found for under a buck a piece. And while this may seem cheap at the moment, the truth is these bulbs aren’t efficient to burn.

Instead, LED light bulbs are your best option. Why? Let’s explore that question!

Here is how changing your light bulbs can save the planet and your budget.

So why are LED lightbulbs so special?

LED lights don’t have a filament like traditional light bulbs. This makes them more durable.

You know how if you shake a new light bulb the inside can come detached and the bulb isn’t good any longer? This doesn’t happen to LED lights. They are solid, durable and can withstand being shook.

LED lights are also mercury free (unlike CFL bulbs), burn cooler and burn longer than traditional light bulbs. It is for these reasons that LED lights are an excellent choice when changing out your lightbulbs to a more efficient option.

How do LED lightbulbs help lower utility bills?

LED lights put off considerably less heat than traditional lightbulbs. Since they put off little to no heat, they won’t raise the temperature in a room, which could then trigger the air conditioner to turn on.

Since Led Lightbulbs also use about 1/3 of the energy as traditional lightbulbs, this also means lower electricity bills. If you need even more proof of savings, your LED lightbulbs will last as much as 10 times longer than traditional bulbs.

So, you will find yourself buying and replacing bulbs a whole lot less.

How to LED lightbulbs save the planet?

First let’s just look at the fact that one LED bulb lasts 10 times as long as a traditional lightbulb. This means fewer lightbulbs heading to the landfill.

LED lights are also easy to run via solar panels, making them an option for households that wish to be more self sufficient and rely less on traditional means of electricity.

LED lightbulbs create less waste, are free from mercury and require less energy to burn. All of these reasons add up to a cleaner planet!

Your choices aren’t limited with LED!

It use to be that LED lights were pricey, available in only a few colors and weren’t made to fit every light socket. That isn’t the case anymore.

LED lights are being made in all sorts of varieties, colors, sha

pes, and sizes. You can find them for your lamps, kitchen appliances, night lights even your Christmas lights.

Because demand has grown for LED lights, prices are becoming more competitive and they have become an item everyone can afford.

Are you ready to make the switch from traditional lightbulbs to LED lightbulbs? Consider these reasons for switching to LED and see how easy it can be to save money and the planet by simply switching out your bulbs. It doesn’t get much easier than that!
