The increase in brightness, + 290%, in lumens compared to a halogen is a parameter calculated with REAL data using an ULBRICHT sphere

Switching from a halogen lamp to a 35W LED lamp offers numerous significant advantages, both economically, environmentally and in performance. Here are the main ones:

1. Energy Efficiency and Bill Savings:

• Lower Consumption: This is the most obvious advantage. A 35W LED lamp can produce an amount of light comparable to or even greater than a halogen lamp with a much higher power, often 200W, 250W or more.

• Lumens per Watt (Luminous Efficacy): LEDs have a much higher luminous efficacy. This means they convert a greater percentage of electrical energy into visible light and a smaller part into heat.

2. Longer Life:

• Extended Service Life: LED lamps have a much longer lifespan compared with halogens. While a halogen lamp may last on average 2.000-5.000 hours, an LED can reach 25.000, 50.000 hours or more. This means fewer replacements, lower maintenance costs and less inconvenience.

• Durability: LEDs are more robust and resistant to shocks and vibration compared with halogen lamps, which have a fragile filament.

3. Lower Heat Output:

• Safety and Comfort: Halogen lamps generate a considerable amount of heat (up to 80-95% of consumed energy is converted to heat), making the environment warmer and increasing the risk of burns. LEDs, conversely, produce much less heat (only about 10-20% of the energy is converted to heat), making them safer and helping to keep a lower temperature in the vehicle headlamp.

• Protection of Components: The reduced heat emission makes LEDs ideal for illuminating heat-sensitive parts, such as reflectors and headlamp wiring.

4. Versatility and Advanced Features:

• Wide Range of Colour Temperatures: LEDs offer a wide choice of colour temperatures (expressed in Kelvin), from warm white (similar to halogens) to cool white.

• Instant Ignition: LEDs reach full brightness instantly, with no warm-up time, unlike some halogen lamps that require a short period.

5. Reduced Environmental Impact:

• Less Waste: The long life of LEDs reduces the number of lamps to dispose of.

• Absence of Harmful Substances: Unlike some compact fluorescent lamps (but not halogens), LEDs do not contain mercury or other toxic substances, making them more eco-friendly at disposal.

• Reduced CO2 Emissions: The lower energy consumption of LEDs helps reduce CO2 emissions related to electricity production.

In summary, although the initial cost of an LED lamp may be slightly higher than an equivalent halogen, the long-term benefits in energy savings, lifespan and performance make it a far more advantageous and sustainable investment.
