Watts against lumens

Watts against lumens With new technologies come new ways of measuring those technologies. Know the light: the unit used to measure the brightness of a led bulb . You may have noticed the lumens in the bulbs since the FTC now requires all light bulb manufacturers to list information such as the number of lumens on a label similar to the nutritional labels on food. You will also be wondering what happened to the watts and why they are being replaced. The LED-lighting difference Before the LEDs, the watts were the standard way to estimate the brightness of the bulbs. However, watts only measure the amount of energy a bulb consumes, and with the introduction of new energy-saving technologies such as LEDs, the use of energy is no longer relevant when the brightness of a light is sought. This is now expressed in lumens, which measure the amount of light they produce instead. The higher the number of lumens, the brighter the light will be All light bulb packages are now required to

Constant Current vs. Constant Voltage

Constant Current vs. Constant Voltage It is possible that, if you have been buying LED lights , you have found the terms of constant current and constant voltage. It is also very possible that you have no idea what those terms mean. This publication should clarify the confusion of constant current versus constant voltage. Constant current conductors LEDs usually have a power limiting device (controller or resistors) to prevent LEDs from overloading. A constant current controller is used to regulate the amount of current supplied to an LED or LED array to maximize the life of the LED. If the current is not regulated, the brightness of the LED may fluctuate and the service life may be reduced. The constant current controller is used for LEDs or lighting fixtures that require a stable output current and operate within a range of voltages. Most finished LED products already have a constant current controller or resistors to regulate the current. If you are building an LED accessory or

Choose LED lights: How bright? What color? To achieve the look you want with LED strip lights  you need to know how bright and what shade of white they are. These two pieces of information are defined by lumens and correlated color temperature (CCT). The first question that most people ask is about brightness.  If you are buying LED lights, you know that the classic method of using wattage to determine brightness no longer exists. You will have to use lumens. What is a lumen, questions? It is a measure of the amount of light produced by a source. The problem arises when you try to imagine how bright the light will be. Because lumens are a relatively new way to buy lights, you probably still cannot match a number with the appearance. That's where this post is useful. Check out the photos below to see how certain lumens values ​​translate into appearance in LED strip lights . In this publication and on our site, the brightness of the strip is expressed in lumens per foot. Th
