As the holiday season rolls around, the sparkle of festive lights adds magic to homes in Northern Ohio. But have you ever stopped to ponder the type of lights brightening up your property? At Outdoor Lighting Perspectives of Northern Ohio, we know homeowners struggle when choosing between incandescent and LED holiday lighting. Each has its unique features and drawbacks. We've gathered all you need to know to make an informed choice this holiday season.
The Shine and Glare of Incandescent Holiday Lighting
Incandescent lights have been the traditional go-to for years. They offer a warm, familiar glow that many associate with their fondest holiday memories.
Pros of Incandescent Lighting
- Aesthetic Appeal: The warm yellow glow is almost nostalgic.
- Initial Cost: Incandescent lights are generally less expensive upfront.
Cons of Incandescent Lighting
- Energy Usage: Incandescent lights consume more energy, leading to higher electricity bills.
- Heat Emission: These lights get quite hot, posing a fire hazard if not carefully monitored.
- Short Lifespan: Incandescent bulbs wear out more quickly and require frequent replacements.
LED lights have become increasingly popular because they address many drawbacks of incandescent lights.
Pros of LED Lighting
- Energy Efficiency: LEDs consume up to 90% less power, which is beneficial for both your wallet and the environment.
- Safety: Less heat emission reduces the risk of fire hazards.
- Longevity: These bulbs can last up to 25 times longer than incandescent ones.
Cons of LED Lighting
- Initial Cost: LEDs are more expensive upfront, although the long-term savings often justify the cost.
- Brightness: Some people find the light too bright or harsh, although technology is evolving to improve this.
