LEDs Have Brought A Revolution To The Traffic & Street Lighting Industry

In present scenario the utilization of electrical gadgets & electronic devices are necessary fo daily living. In such a scenario the power usage of these appliances and devices are the only concern other than their beneficial features.

The fluorescent lamps are capable than incandescent lamps but not much while compared to the recent innovation the LEDS. Well, the LEDs are light emitting diodes which utilize the maximum energy and remain to be highly efficient light source. The combination of these light emitting diodes will constitute a LED bar light.


The light emitting diodes are called firm state devices since they don't have the vacuum chamber as in case of the incandescent bulbs and the fluorescent bulbs. The LEDs on their earlier days where capable of emitting only RED light and where eventually used in lab equipments and later used in electronic home appliances. The LEDs became cheap and where available in all sorts of devices later. The experiments on LED and its properties led to discovery of variety of colors obtainable from them and then led to the invention of high light intensity LEDs. These LEDs are known as the LED pedestrian lights.

These light emitting diodes due to their flexible nature and high efficiency in power usage have the use in diversity of applications. The applications include the street traffic signal lights or traffic signal controller, ambulance, indicator lights etc. One of the main usages of high intensity light emitting diodes is their use in traffic lights. These LEDs are highly capable of emitting high intensity light source when compared to its predecessors the incandescent bulbs.

These LEDs in the traffic signals are capable of working for more than 50,000 hours. These high intensity LEDs are also employed in LED bar lights. These LED bar lights are consequently highly capable of illuminating larger areas. The neon light which were used of decorative purpose in the streets are these days replaced by these LED bar lights since they consume very little energy compared to large energy wasting neon lights. Many traffic lights suppliers are now heading towards the LED technology rather than incandescent or neon bulbs.

The main advantage of these Light Emitting Diode is that they are cost efficient and energy efficient. These LED light bars consume the least amount of power compared to its other competitors in market like the incandescent and fluorescent bulbs. Hence they are energy efficient and since they consume less energy they help us save a lot of money compared making them cost efficient.

These Light Emitting Diode light bars in present trend are used in very small rate for the table lamp, truck lights, ambulance light and street lights. One day they will be used in a large scale for illuminating the offices, storage areas, houses, kitchens, schools, highways, restaurants, shops, playgrounds, and even moving objects like the trains and buses.
