FAQs

• Why do LED lights use such little power?

  2011-10-18
  LED lights (T8 LED tube, T10 LED tubes) donot use a filament where a conductor is heated and light is created. Filament based lighting consumes more power than the light produced. LED lights produce very little amounts of heat and do not use filaments making them far more efficient in consumption and output.

• Are LED tubes affected by extreme conditions?

  2011-10-18
  LED tubes are geared for harsh environments. LED tubes function from -20℃ to 45℃. There is no delay or required "warm up time" for LED tubes to function.

• Can I specify a future delivery date?

  2011-10-18
  yes, you can specify a future delivery date. Please contact us.

• Do LED tubes attract insects?

  2011-10-18
  No they do not. Insects see entirely different spectrums of light and are attracted to ultraviolet light. A side note - flowers create "nectar guides", invisible to the human eye and ultraviolet light attracts insects to flowers for reproductive purposes. This is not to say that all bugs aren't attracted to LED lights, but most can't see the light that LEDs produce.

• How long do LED tubes last?

  2011-10-18
  LED tubes are rated by manufacturers to operate under normal conditions for approximately 5 years or 50,000 hours of continuous use. As LEDs get older, they tend to dim and fade but aren't susceptible to blinking like incandescent or fluorescents.
