LED lights have been gradually replaced with LED lamps in all households, on roads, and in stadiums; as long as they are needed for lighting, they are progressively replaced with LED lights. How long is the life span of a floodlight?
What are the factors that influence the life of an LED floodlight?
The life cycle of an LED floodlight correlates with several factors, such as the area in which it is used, in a humid seaside, or in a hot desert. Whether the application scenario is indoor or outdoor, the frequency of use, including the usage and habits, will affect the life of the LED light. Generally, manufacturers will say that the life span of LED lights is over ten years, but that is not accurate; how long do LED lights last in the end? It is still necessary to judge each bulb according to the factors of the environment in which it is used.
The life span of LED lights
Generally speaking, LED lights can be used commonly for 50,000 hours, generally for up to 10 years or more if the LED bulb is not disturbed by external factors, if it the use 8 hours a day, can be used for more than 16 years.
In contrast to metal halide lamps, which only have a service life of 8,000 hours, the use of LED lamps can also eliminate the cost of frequent bulb replacement, and there is no doubt that the life expectancy of LED lamps is so long that they have also been specifically reviewed for data.
the actual lifespan
External disturbances certainly influence the actual lifespan of an LED lamp. If an LED lamp lasts 15 years, it may only last eight years when used in scorching temperatures on the equator, or it may last up to 20 years in a comfortable indoor environment and infrequent use.
Light Decay
Even if an LED light is not subjected to any external interference, it will not last forever as the light will decay and gradually reduce the lumen output of the LED over time.
How do I calculate the life of an LED floodlight?
The life span of a typical LED light is measured in hours; if it needs to be illuminated for 8 hours a day, that adds up to 2920 hours 365 days a year. The expected life span of 50,000 hours will last 17.1 years. This is our manufacturer’s LED floodlight.
How to extend the life of LED floodlights?
Maintaining a heat-dissipating environment
Compared to metal halide lamps, LED lamps do not generate much heat. Overheating can lead to a reduction in the service life of LED lamps. When buying LED lamps, you need to consider the heat dissipation structure of the LED lamp and whether it is equipped with an efficient heat sink that can better disperse heat.
Stable current
LED floodlights have their specific rate of current inflow. If the current is too low, the LED light will not produce the expected lumens properly but will last longer.
However, LED lamps that use too high a current will give off a brighter light, affecting the service life.
It is important to keep the current from exceeding the expected set current.
power supply and bulb match
The power supply used for the bulb can cause damage to the circuit if an incompatible power or voltage rating is used. If the power supply for the LED lamp produces 200 watts, but a 150 watt bulb is fitted, high power will damage the LED lamp due to overload.
please turn off when not in use
Please turn off your LED lamp promptly when it is not in use, as this will not only shorten the life of the LED lighting but will also result in higher electricity costs.
