A Merry Cool Christmas with LED Lights

 PDF Print E-mail
The New York Empire State Plaza holiday tree has doned on a new dress of energy-efficient LED (light-emitting diode) lights!

The state has provided 4,000 multicolored C9 LED light bulbs to decorate the tree.  Each bulb draws only 0.9 watts of power, a tenth of the energy of what the old bulbs consumed.  The new LED lights will consume only 2,800 kilowatss-hours of electricity (about $400 worth) during the holiday season in comparison to traditional incandescent holiday lights will consume.  This translates to more than $50,000 savings in energy and replacement costs over the lifetime of the bulbs for the region's residents.

The enery saved from the LED lights will also reduce carbon dioxide emissions by 26,000 pounds annually.

Source: PR Newswire

LED bulbs cost about $1 more per bulb than traditional holiday lights. Still, it's a good investment for four reasons:
• LEDs are more energy efficient, as much as 90% more efficient than incandescent lights, so you'll pay less for electricity when you burn them.
• They'll burn for 35,000 to 50,000 hours, compared with about 3,000 hours for traditional bulbs.
• They produce less heat, making them safer
• They're nearly impossible to destroy because they're made of hard plastic, so you'll rarely have to replace a burned-out or broken bulb.

“The directress must intervene to lead the child from sensations to ideas.” - Maria Montessori

“Do not fear to destroy evil. It is only the good that we must fear to destroy. As we must call a child by its name before it can answer, so it is necessary to call vigorously to awaken the soul.” - Maria Montessori
