common errors when switching to LED
common errors when switching to LED 1."Wattage indicates the amount of light, right?" This is the most common mistake when switching from conventional lighting to LED lighting. We all know that LED lighting has a lower energy consumption than conventional lighting . Yet it is easy to confuse the wattage and the amount of light. The amount of light that a lamp emits is called the Lumen. Watt is the unit that indicates how much energy a lamp or other electronic device consumes. With halogen, fluorescent or incandescent lamps, this unit also gave the indicator for the amount of light emitted by a lamp. But this does not work with LED lighting. LED lighting uses a lot less energy. Where an incandescent lamp consumes 60W, the LED version consumes only 5W to 7W. That's why we have to look at the Lumen. Lumen is the unit of quality and luminous flux of light emitted by a certain light source. It can still be difficult to choose a lamp that emits as much light as your current
