Advantages of led construction string lights
The energy consumption of a light bulb depends on the type of bulb, led construction string lights are up to 90% more energy efficient than traditional lights, and although they have a higher front-end cost, they are very energy efficient and offer the following additional advantages:
-More environmentally friendly, as they consume far less energy than traditional bulbs and emit significantly less greenhouse gases.
-Safer, as led construction string lights do not overheat and do not get as hot as traditional bulbs when in use.
-More durable, led construction string lights have a lifespan of up to 50,000 hours, far exceeding the 1,000 hours of traditional bulbs, reducing replacement frequency and waste.
-Brighter and more efficient, LED lights can provide very bright light, both cool and warm light, to meet different usage needs.
LED Construction String Lights vs. Traditional Incandescent Lights
A basic 50ft led construction string light with five 10W LED bulbs has 6000LM brightness and can illuminate a maximum of over 60 square meters. If you use incandescent bulbs to illuminate the same area, you may need about 8 60W incandescent bulbs. The number of bulbs used and the cost of electricity for the same area make a relatively big difference, and the prices below illustrate how much you can save by using LED string lights:
-8 traditional 60W incandescent bulbs: 3.84kWh per day, 115.2kWh per month = $14.95 per month
-8 bulbs for 10W led construction string lights: 0.64kWh per day, 19.2kWh per month = $2.50 per month
-5 traditional 60W incandescent bulbs: 2.4kWh per day, 72kWh per month = $9.35 per month
-5 bulbs for 10W led construction string lights: 0.4kWh per day, 12kWh per month = $1.56 per month
To calculate your annual or daily electricity usage, check your latest electric bill and use the following formula:
-Find the total number of watts you will use.
-Multiply the total watts by 0.001 to get kilowatt hours (kWh).
-Multiply the kWh by the number of hours used per day to get the daily electricity use (kWh/day).
-Multiply the daily usage by 30 days to get the monthly usage (kWh/month).
-Multiply the monthly electricity usage by the cost per kWh on the electricity bill to estimate the monthly electricity bill.
