Even if they are comparatively expensive, switching to LED lights is worth it.

They use significantly less electricity than incandescent or halogen lamps.

Düsseldorf - In view of the ever-increasing costs for electricity and gas, people are desperately looking for ways to save.

In the household costs can be cut well - especially with light bulbs.

Energy-saving tips: There is enormous potential in LED lamps

In fact, light bulbs have not been available for purchase for a long time, but they are probably still in many lamps.

Why throw something away when it's still good?

But up to 90 percent of energy can be saved if you switch from old light bulbs, but also halogen lamps, to lights with modern LED technology.

Consumer advice centers point this out.

A halogen lamp consumes 20 percent less energy than an incandescent lamp, but compared to LEDs that looks puny.

Because LED lamps are 85 percent more economical than halogen lamps.

In addition, there is a significantly longer service life.

According to

ledtipps.net

, it is between 2,000 and 4,000 hours for halogen and between 15,000 and 50,000 hours for LEDs.

Saving electricity by switching to LED: Don't be put off by the price

As the advice portal continues to write, many people still opt for halogen lamps rather than LEDs because they are cheaper.

However, due to their long service life, LEDs are the more effective option overall.

The good old incandescent lamp consumes up to 90 percent more electricity than the LED.

So it doesn't hurt to take a look at the lights and check the remaining stock.

Especially not because of the very high inflation.

As the name suggests, light bulbs can be recognized by their pear or candle shape.

They have a screw-in thread at the bottom and a glass at the top containing a tungsten wire that is responsible for generating light.

Saving energy in the home: What is the difference between light bulbs, halogen lamps and LED lights?

Halogen lamps, most of which are now banned, often have a spot-like design, but they also come in pear shapes.

The filament is surrounded by a protective gas, the halogen.

An LED lamp looks similar to a traditional incandescent lamp.

But it usually lacks the classic filament, because light-emitting diodes form the light source here.

While LED lamps should be recycled, energy-saving lamps must not be disposed of with household waste.
