LEDs Light the Way!! Why the World is Switching to LED Lighting

LEDs Light the Way!! Why the World is Switching to LED Lighting

I still remember the first time I heard a light bulb pop. That pop sound and the splash of glass echoing for a few seconds. Perhaps I am giving too much insight to my age here but lights sure have changed over the years! I remember years ago wondering why we couldn't use LED (Light Emitting Diodes) instead of conventional bulbs. The release of low power florescent bulbs became popular through the...
