Landscape lighting will enhance your property's visual appeal by illuminating your landscape and shining light on your yard's unique features. If you want to get the most out of your landscape lighting system in Alabama or Tennessee, make sure you use LED bulbs! Compared to incandescent bulbs, LED lights are durable and built to last, providing around 50,000 hours of light without breaking easily. They are also energy-efficient because most of the energy they consume goes into producing light. They don't produce as much heat as well compared to incandescent bulbs, which means there is less chance of your LED bulbs combusting and of you burning your fingers when you touch them!

LED bulbs are the ideal choice for landscape lighting because they are made to withstand the outdoor environment. Unlike incandescent bulbs that are made with glass, LED bulbs are made with epoxy lenses that makes them more durable. They are more resistant to breakage, allowing them to withstand exposure to inclement weather, wind, and, rain without breaking easily.

What's more, LED bulbs are built to last. They have a life of around 50,000 hours and a possibly even longer lifespan depending on usage. This means you can enjoy bright illumination from your LED lights for a long time and you don't have to worry about changing them very often! They last significantly longer than incandescent bulbs which can only last around 1,000 hours.

LED bulbs are energy efficient.

Another great reason to use LED bulbs for your landscape lighting display is that they are energy-efficient. This means you can enjoy your outdoor lighting system without worrying about a significant spike in your electric bill. LED bulbs use around 75% less energy than incandescent bulbs because they don't require too much heat to produce light.

They are capable of converting about 80% to 90% of their energy into light, which means a majority of their energy consumption goes into illuminating your property. Even with less wattage, your LED lights will still produce brighter lights compared to incandescent bulbs!

The energy efficiency of LED bulbs is also environmentally friendly because your landscape lighting system has less carbon emissions!

LED Bulbs Don't Produce as Much Heat as Incandescent Bulbs

Because LED bulbs create light, they don't produce as much heat as their incandescent counterparts, making them the safer choice for your landscape lighting system. They can light up your landscape without converting their energy into heat, allowing them to remain cool to the touch. LED bulbs can only reach about 60 to 100 degrees Fahrenheit unlike a typical 100-watt incandescent light bulb's glass surface that can become as hot as 150 to 200 degrees. When you use incandescent lights, they have a higher chance of catching fire and you are at greater risk of burning your fingers.
