What are the advantages of choosing LED Christmas lights?
LED Christmas lighting can bring a number of benefits and advantages. These include:
- Reducing the risk of electric shocks- traditional Christmas lights are known for the occasional electrical shock, either from the wall plug, or the little lamps themselves. But with LED lights, these operate at extra-low voltage. This significantly reduces the risk of electric shock.
- Reducing the risk of electrical fires- because LED lights need such a small amount of power, these also will not heat up significantly, and in fact, generate only a very small amount of heat. As a result, the risks of electrical fire and burns are dramatically reduced. This increases the safety for you, your colleagues and employees, as well as your business property.
- Reduce the cost- Christmas is often a costly occasion, but your Christmas lights don’t need to cost very much at all, if you opt for LEDs. In fact, LEDs use 80-90% less electricity than filament lamps so they are less expensive to run and typically last up to 60 times longer. As a result, you can save money on electricity bulls, and maintenance costs.
