LED lighting is an attractive alternative to incandescent or fluorescent lighting in both residential and commercial lighting applications. A life without electricity is hard to imagine and it is very important to save electricity for better tomorrow. Light-emitting diodes commonly called LED’s helps you to save your utility bill and reduce conception of electricity when comparing with ordinary incandescent or fluorescent lighting. Unlike ordinary incandescent bulbs, they don’t have a filament that will burn out and they don’t get especially hot. LED lamps are just tiny light bulbs that fit easily into an electrical circuit, very energy-efficient and have very long lives. CFL consume 75 percent less energy than incandescent bulbs. While LED bulbs use less electricity than both CFL and incandescent bulbs.
Advantage of using LED lights in your apartment

 |
Many towns and cities are saving money on their power bills by changing from incandescent light bulbs to light-emitting diode (LED) lights. LED lamps are used for both general lighting and special purpose lighting. They are very energy-efficient and have very long lives. Switching to LED lighting can save 40 to 70 per cent of electricity and these lighting can be used successfully in parking lots, common areas of apartment and even in your apartment. A building’s carbon footprint from lighting can be reduced by 60 to 70 per cent by exchanging all incandescent bulbs for new LED. LED’s are specially designed to release a large number of photons outward. Additionally, they are housed in a plastic bulb that concentrates the light in a particular direction.

Switching to LED can save electricity and leading to reduction in consumption of coal through which electricity is generated. In some states government offers incentives or rewards for supporting green living and reduce carbon footprint. LED lighting can be used in streetlights, parking garages, parking lots, outdoor parks, traffic signals, crosswalk signs, and even holiday displays could result in reduced energy consumption and cost. You can get LED lighting in different colors. The color emitted by an LED is dependent upon the materials used to produce it.

Timer for lighting
Timer for lights and electronic equipments in your apartment enables you to save electricity when they are not in use. There are 4 types of security lighting: manual lighting, timer operated lighting, movement sensor lighting and dusk till dawn lighting.
- Manual Lighting is less demanded as they cannot be operated during you are away for holiday.
- Timer operated lights are programmed to turn on and off automatically whenever suits. Some allow for multiple lighting periods over a 24 hour period.
- Most movement sensor lighting are rather energy inefficient. However, there are now a few solar powered movement sensor lights on the market.
- Dusk till Dawn Lighting come on automatically as it gets dark and go off again as it starts to get light. This kind of security lighting is much more energy efficient than movement sensor lights.
LED home lighting is undoubtedly friendly step towards environment. Moreover, your energy bill will be considerably less as compare to the regular bills.Although, LED lights are a little expensive, but their operation is pocket friendlier. Moreover, if you switch to this low energy LED lights then you would be able to keep a huge amount of carbon dioxide away from atmosphere.If you already switched to LED lighting or knows more about LED lights then share your experience with us. Feel free to share ideas, details of dealers or manufacturers in your city and your experience by switching to LED lights. So, do not think twice and get your LED lights now, Save Electricity.

We have replaced all normal tubelights in common areas with LEDs. It results into significant power savings for us.
Excellent article. Most of us suffer from ‘INERTIA’ that makes us averse to any change. The comfort of ‘STATUS QUO’ is another deterrant to change. Articles like this one will serve to break the resistance and help acept a proven and better alternative.
Initial cost of LED puts off some. Some more facts on the overall economy in long-term (economic evaluation) would be great!
Thanks

Just as few of the members asked, would like to know whether it can be used for lighting our interiors and also how much it would cost??
Dear All
Thanks for the prompt response from Mr Senthil Kumar and Hynetics, however both have not given the exact cost estimates to any one of us, the most common queries today are
1 Cost of the LED lamps
2 Can it fit the existing fittings, : I have gained knowledge is that a normal bulb fitting will accept that however the fittings which have the bulbs with threads are not accepting the same
3 Availability
4 Light factor ,it is omni directional like CFL or a traditonal bulb or unidirectional
I am willing to pay for on or two LED lamps to learn more about that can I get some sample
Will request if a price estimation is given then it will address lot of queries

My question to Mr.Senthil kumar:
Please provide me details of the lumen ( emitted light intensity) that the 20W tubelight that you are having in your product range.
How does it compare with an equivalent 20W CFL?
What would be the cost of the tube light?
I would be interested in trying out a tubelight if the cost isnt prohibitive !!!
Venkatesh,
The lumens rating ranges from 650lumens to 2000 lumens for our products depending on the model. I would be glad to provide you a sample for trying out. Please contact on my mail id.
thank you

I found the following supplier of LEDs in Pune. Mind you this is plain Internet search and I live outside India. Someone needs to access the site and contact the following

We wish to know the LED availability in Thane area. If anyone can help us with contact no, it will be greatful.
Mr.Kumaran M,
We deal in LED lighting and are based in Thane West. You can call me on 09821060181 for more information. We cater to destic as well as commercial LED lighting solutions.
Points 3 and 4 under ‘Timer for Lighting’ are misleading. Dusk till Dawn lighting can never be more efficient than Movement Sensor lighting.
In a Dusk to Dawn application, the lights remain ‘ON’ all night long from Sunset till Sunrise(i.e. approximately 12hours) whereas in a ‘Movement Sensor Lighting’ the lights turn ‘ON’ only when there is any people movement.
We have one such system installed in our society in Hiranandani Estate and it has proved its efficiency and worthiness. We have detailed reports of the systems efficiency and the savings from it. The system was installed by a company by the name of Dynosolair that all deals in LED & other forms of efficient lighting as well.

I have tried LED lamps, two from Mr Senthil Kumar and two from other source, the working has no issue , the concerns which are needed to attend to are
1 The Lumnes shld not be criteria immdtly
2 LED are more of spot light type, they do not give all round light like in the case of a Bulb, CFL etc, we Indians are used to omni distribution of light in the house,
I am still awaiting for an economical solution for such a case and need to have fittings for all type of holder esp E 27 E14 with omni distribution of the light
We will have to wait for such products, even Arka Technologies do not have such products
Can we have some solution on this

Is there anyone who supplies LED lights and bulbs in Goregaon (Mumbai) area? I wish to install LED lights for my home.

Dear All
I have tried atleast seven types of LED lights and still I am struggling with the spot light issue, we need to have omni directional lights and someone needs to give demo, it is diffcult and expensive for us to keep on trying, let someone physically give demo first and show the ranges I was in touch with Mr Daruwala also who posted a response on March 07, 2010 but then did not went futher then that, the issue is that the companies which deal with LED lights are not having a disribution set up and thus the products are limites and cannot be experienced,

I am getting my house refurbished and have to close on the lightling in a day or two. I was trying to find the option for LEDs but have not been successful and am deciding to go for CFL. The shop keepers in and around 7 Bunglows, Andheri West, Mumbai have not been able to show my any feasible options and nor could my contractor.
If someone here knows about a feasible option supplier in Mumbai, please do write to me at subiragrawal@yahoo.com

Gardeners who are used to traditional grow lamps will find gardening with LED lights a bit different. Here are some things to keep in mind:
–Don’t overwater. The heat from traditional lamps causes water evaporation, requiring indoor gardeners to give their flora extra water. Because LED lights produce significantly less heat, plants require less water.
–Provide some heat. On the flip side, the lack of heat generation from LED lights can cause plants to grow more slowly. Plants should be kept in a room that’s 70-80 degrees Fahrenheit, and a small 60-Watt light bulb may be needed for plants that benefit from higher temperatures, such as tomatoes.
LED is use in our life more and more

LED Product is great measurement and requirement of our need and sources without this product we can not handle our system because system is depend upon the electricity circuit.
Electricity saving is the first need of the hour today..Being a electrical engineer i do know what all it takes to do this. I had already phased out normal incandescent bulbs havells CFLs because Acc to my perspective havells is the brand whose products are really energy saving.I am looking further to steps like these to save max electricity.
The subsequent time I read a blog I truly noticed that you have one thing attention-grabbing to say. Good article!
