Modern daylight LED lamps are a new technology that is actively conquering the market. Such lamps are used at enterprises, in office premises, they are also suitable for use in everyday life. But choosing a diode lamp is sometimes difficult. To do this, you need to understand their design and differences with conventional fluorescent lamps. At first glance, they have something in common: a power source, a diffuser, a metal case and rulers with LEDs. But in cheap models, the body can be made like a raster lamp, while the light will blind the eyes, since the LEDs are open. The price of the device depends on their type.

When buying a diode lamp, you need to pay attention to the parameters that determine the duration of the "life" of the device, for example, the power source and its manufacturer. The most reliable, high-quality and affordable LEDs are produced in Japan, for example, by Nichia. You can also trust the well-known brands "Cree", "Samsung", "Seoul Semiconductor" and "SemiLEDs". The products of these companies correspond to the declared characteristics and have a long service life. Among domestic producersyou can mention "ECOLIGHT".

For a high-quality lamp, the diffuser should be made of lighting polycarbonate. If a different material was used, then after three or four years of operation it may become cloudy.

Considering the characteristics that a diode lamp has, it is necessary to consider its power, pulsation, luminous flux level, color temperature, dimensions, efficiency. The manufacturer does not always give the correct information about the products in the catalogs, describing the LEDs, and not the lamp itself. It is necessary to carefully study the technical documentation for the product. The manufacturer is solely responsible for the information contained therein.

For suspended ceilings "Armstrong" in a residential apartment suitable built-in LED lights, which have a number of advantages. They are very reliable, withstand shock loads, vibration, have a compact size. The brightness of the glow can be controlled using a special remote control. An important characteristic is their absolute safety, since the voltage of the current is very small.

Using spot diode lamps, you can significantly reduce energy consumption, they are designed for long-term operation (up to fifty thousand hours). In this regard, there is no need to frequently change burnt out elements. Unlike incandescent and halogen lamps, LED lamps can reduce the cost of air conditioning. In the room where they are applied,a low temperature is maintained, since the lamps do not heat up and do not heat the air. It has a diode lamp and with greater brightness than a fluorescent lamp. It must only be installed by a specialist. At the same time, the connection scheme needs additional refinement. If LED panels are installed in an office or industrial premises, they can increase the working capacity of workers. Since the diodes do not flicker, they do not make people feel tired, and the concentration of attention increases.
