When it comes to technology, almost everything is continually
improving. The light bulb is no exception. From incandescent to
florescent to LED, each leap in technology brings with it more
efficient lighting – less power consumption, less heat, and
exponentially longer operating life. Even within a certain lighting
technology, said benefits are continuously improving.
Take, for example, LED lighting. Last year it took a LED bulb 36 LEDs
to produce 72 lumens of light while consuming 3.6 watts. This year, a
LED bulb with only 1 LED can produce 160 lumens of light while
consuming only 3 watts! For this review, I will be taking a look at
one of these new LED bulbs (courtesy of Don’s Green Store).
