Frequently Asked Questions

How much money can I save by switching to LED bulbs? +

Most households save 75โ€“85% on lighting energy costs by switching to LED bulbs. For an average home with 20 bulbs used 3 hours per day, annual savings typically range from $150 to $300 depending on local electricity rates and usage patterns.

How long does it take for LED bulbs to pay for themselves? +

LED bulbs typically pay for themselves within 3 to 12 months through energy savings. With an average LED bulb costing $3โ€“$8 and saving $10โ€“$20 per year in electricity, the payback period is usually under 6 months for bulbs used several hours daily.

How do I calculate LED wattage equivalent? +

LED bulbs use roughly 15โ€“20% of the wattage of incandescent bulbs for the same light output. A 60W incandescent equals about 9โ€“10W LED, a 100W incandescent equals about 15โ€“16W LED, and a 40W incandescent equals about 5โ€“6W LED.
