LED lighting era will be in the future, still need to work hard


Brighter and more energy-saving LED bulbs have been difficult to promote due to high prices, but there are still many consumers and industry optimistic about the era of LEDs.

The New York Times reported on July 27, 2008 that traffic lights at intersections may be the most widely used LED lights, but more and more destinations are now turning to LED lighting. For example, in the United States every year on the New Year's Eve Times Square, the lights from the air, and now LEDs, the Empire State Building in New York is also considering switching to LED lighting to facilitate complex color changes in remote control building lighting.

Singular, OsramSylvania and Philips, the three largest lighting supply companies in the United States, have been actively promoting energy efficiency technologies such as halogen lamps and small fluorescent lamps. With the rising cost of energy and increasing attention to the greenhouse effect, consumers are gradually willing to abandon the more power-hungry incandescent lamps.

Manufacturers worry about profit dilution

However, the rise of LEDs will certainly make lighting manufacturers face a difficult dilemma. Because their business is based on the need for consumers to change lamps frequently, but the life of LEDs is usually 50 to 100 times that of ordinary light bulbs. If consumers need almost no need to replace light bulbs, how can manufacturers profit? In addition, the price The factors are greater. The standard 60-watt incandescent lamp costs less than $1, and the compact fluorescent lamp, which saves two-thirds of the power and has a tenfold life extension, costs just $2. But in September this year, Philips will launch Ledino in Europe, the first consumer product to replace standard incandescent bulbs, each selling for as much as $107.

The performance is in place and the price is not enough.

The vice president of lighting business at Philips said that the performance of LEDs is in place, but the price is not enough. Even if they sell $10 to $15 each, consumers won't buy it. However, in several commercial buildings, LEDs are rapidly replacing old lighting equipment. They seem to believe that new low-cost LED lights will eventually replace household incandescent lamps with strong energy efficiency. Lighting design companies are particularly optimistic about the power of LEDs constantly changing color and brightness, creating a painting-like artistic effect for the home.

In addition, Philips itself is also committed to reducing the popularity of small fluorescent lamps, that this is only a transitional technology, LED is the future of hope. The company's lighting division chief said that the company did not spend any money on the development of small fluorescent lamps. Conversely, most lighting research and development budgets are devoted to LED research. Philips expects LED sales to account for 20% of its professional lighting revenue in the next two years.
