### LED Lighting Guide: Full Analysis of Purchase and Use Skills

 

In today's era of rapid development of science and technology, LED (light emitting diode) technology with its high efficiency, long life, environmental protection and energy saving, has been widely used in home lighting, commercial display, outdoor lighting and other fields. However, in the face of a dazzling array of LED products on the market, how to buy LED lamps that meet the needs and cost-effective, and how to use and maintain them correctly, has become a concern for many consumers. This article will start from the basic concept of LED light efficiency, detailed analysis of the purchase and use of LED lamps and lanterns, to help you create a more comfortable, energy-saving light environment.

 

#### Basic cognition of 1. LED light efficiency

 

**1.1 What is LED Light Efficiency? * *

 

LED luminous efficiency, that is, luminous efficiency, refers to the efficiency of LED lamps and lanterns to convert electrical energy into light energy, usually expressed in lumens per watt (Lm/W). High luminous efficiency means that under the same power, LED lamps can emit brighter light, or consume less electricity when reaching the same brightness.

 

**Advantages of 1.2 LED light source * *

 

-**Energy saving and high efficiency**: Compared with traditional lighting, LED can save up to 80% of electricity.

-**Long life**: The average service life can reach tens of thousands of hours, reducing the frequency of replacement.

-**Environmental protection**: does not contain harmful substances such as mercury, waste disposal more environmentally friendly.

-**Dimmable**: It is easy to adjust the brightness and color temperature to meet the needs of different scenes.

-**Color rich**: can emit from cool white to warm white, and even colorful light color.

 

#### 2. LED Lighting Selection Guide

 

**2.1 clear usage scenario * *

 

Choose the right LED lamp according to the size of the space and the purpose. For example, the living room and bedroom tend to soft and warm lighting, while the study and kitchen need brighter lighting. Outdoor lighting needs to consider waterproof, dustproof grade and weather resistance.

 

**2.2 attention to light efficiency and color temperature * *

 

-**Light efficiency**: Choose products with high light efficiency, usually the light efficiency of home lighting recommend is not less than 80Lm/W.

-**Color Temperature**: Color temperature affects the warm and cold feeling of light. Generally, warm white light of 2700 K-3000K is recommend in the home environment, and neutral white light of 4000K-5000K can be selected in the office learning area.

 

**View certifications and brands 2.3 * *

 

At the time of purchase, check whether the product has passed CE, RoHS, UL and other international safety certification, and whether there is a national energy efficiency label. Well-known brands usually have more guaranteed quality and better after-sales service.

 

**2.4 consider intelligent control * *

 

With the popularity of smart home, LED lamps that support Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and other intelligent control are becoming more and more popular, which can realize remote dimming, timing switch and other functions to improve the convenience of life.

 

#### 3. LED lamps use skills

 

**3.1 reasonable layout * *

 

According to the room layout and furniture placement, reasonably arrange the location and number of lamps and lanterns to avoid direct light or shadow areas to ensure uniform lighting.

 

**3.2 adjust brightness and color temperature * *

 

Adjust the brightness and color temperature of LED lamps according to the activity time and personal preference. For example, when reading at night, reduce the brightness and adjust it to warm colors to help protect eyesight.

 

**Regular cleaning of 3.3 * *

 

Although LED lamps are not easy to accumulate dust, they still need to be used regularly after long-term use.
