LEDNODE assists you in finding the best solution for your environment in todays energy efficient lighting market place. LEDNODE headquarters is located in the US. We also have offices in Mxico, Colombia, Brazil, and Argentina. Our products allow customers to save between 3/30/12 and 90% compared to other energy sources 40%

Understanding the Product

Incandescent Lamps
-

Heat a metal filament wire to a high temperature until it glows To avoid ignition and filament burning, inert gases are put inside keeping it cool Low efficiency: Approximately 90% of the power consumed by an incandescent light bulb is emitted as heat, rather than as visible light 3/30/12
