A front view of a Stagebar LED striplight. LED stage lighting is a stage lighting technology that uses light-emitting diodes (LEDs) as a light source. LED instruments are an alternative to traditional stage lights which use halogen lamp or high-intensity discharge lamps. Like other LED instruments, they have high light output with lower power ...
In general terms, CRI is a measure of a light source's ability to show object colors "realistically" or "naturally" compared to a familiar reference source, either incandescent light or sunlight. [2] Efficiently achieving an acceptable CRI has been the most difficult metric for more modern light bulbs attempting to replace older incandescent ...
Luminous efficacy can be normalized by the maximum possible luminous efficacy to a dimensionless quantity called luminous efficiency.The distinction between efficacy and efficiency is not always carefully maintained in published sources, so it is not uncommon to see "efficiencies" expressed in lumens per watt, or "efficacies" expressed as a percentage.
An incandescent light bulb, incandescent lamp or incandescent light globe is an electric light with a filament that is heated until it glows. The filament is enclosed in a glass bulb that is either evacuated or filled with inert gas to protect the filament from oxidation. Electric current is supplied to the filament by terminals or wires ...
A 230-volt LED filament lamp, with an E27 base. The filaments are visible as the eight yellow vertical lines. An assortment of LED lamps commercially available in 2010: floodlight fixtures (left), reading light (center), household lamps (center right and bottom), and low-power accent light (right) applications An 80W Chips on board (COB) LED module from an industrial light luminaire, thermally ...

Efficiency: LEDs emit more lumens per watt than incandescent light bulbs. [63] The efficiency of LED lighting fixtures is not affected by shape and size, unlike fluorescent light bulbs or tubes. Size: LEDs can be very small (smaller than 2 mm 2 [64]) and are easily attached to printed circuit boards.
LED power dissipation is modeled as a current source; thermal resistance is modeled as a resistor; and the ambient temperature is modeled as a voltage source. High power light-emitting diodes (LEDs) can use 350 milliwatts or more in a single LED. Most of the electricity in an LED becomes heat rather than light (about 70% heat and 30% light). [1]
