Are the LED-lamps more efficient than the energy saving lamps?

LED lamps are more efficient than energy-saving lamps and more than five times more energy-efficient than a conventional light bulb.

An advantage of the LED lamp is that it does not need a start-up time, where an energy-saving lamp usually needs to burn at full power. In addition, LED lamps are dimmable, which is not the case for energy-saving lamps in most cases.

Finally, LED lamps are also more resistant to winter cold. That is why LED lamps can be used better in the garden than energy-saving lamps. This way it is also possible to save energy in the garden.

LED lamps are more expensive, but they last longer than energy-saving lamps. A low-energy light bulb lasts about 10,000 hours on average. LED lamps last for 30,000 to 50,000 hours.
