When it comes to lighting your home, making the right choice can have a significant impact on your energy consumption, your wallet, and your lifestyle.  The customer above wanted a warm, comfortable spectrum of light to surround and embody her home.  The customer in the picture below wanted a spectrum of light that invigorated and energized her home.  Other customers want a warm light in select areas and a brighter more natural light in others.  Every customer is unique, every home is unique and the lighting in your home should be done your way.  In my home, it’s what spectrum of light is best for wifey. A GoodBulb lighting specialist will guide you down the path towards purchasing the perfect LEDs.

Traditional incandescent bulbs, CFL bulbs, and halogen bulbs are becoming extinct as more homeowners opt for energy-efficient LED (light-emitting diode) lighting solutions. Change is happening, many of you love the incandescent light bulb.  I get it, we understand but they are no longer available, and you are being forced to change.  There is nothing we or you can do about it.  The good news is that change can be a good thing.

Here’s why LEDs are an excellent choice for your home, if done properly.

Energy Efficiency: LED bulbs are highly energy-efficient, using up to 80% less energy than traditional incandescent bulbs. They convert a larger percentage of electrical energy into light, minimizing wasted energy and reducing electricity consumption. This not only helpsyou lower your energy bills but also reduces your carbon footprint and contributes to a greener environment. You will be spending less money, every single month on your electric bill.

Long Lifespan: LED bulbs have an impressively long lifespan compared to incandescent bulbs. While traditional bulbs typically last around 1,000 hours, LED bulbs can last up to 25,000 hours or more. This means you'll spend less time and money replacing bulbs and enjoy greater convenience and peace of mind. 

Instant On/Off: LED bulbs provide instant illumination, with no warm-up time required. As soon as you flip the switch, the lights come on at full brightness, allowing for immediate visibility. This is particularly beneficial in areas where instant lighting is crucial, such as hallways, bathrooms, and outdoor spaces. 

Flexibility in Design: LED technology offers a wide range of design options to suit your home's aesthetic. LED bulbs are available in various shapes, sizes, and color temperatures, allowing you to create the desired ambiance in each room. From warm LED bulbs that mimic an incandescent light (yes, we have this), to neutral, cool and daylight bulbs. 

To begin selecting the right LEDs for your home we recommend taking pictures showing the light bulbs you are currently using. Each space may require different LEDs from the exterior lighting to the garage, to the kitchen, home office, living spaces, bedrooms, basement, etc.  A lighting specialist at GoodBulb can help.

Dimming Capabilities: Many LED bulbs are dimmable, providing you with enhanced control over the intensity of your lighting. This flexibility allows you to adjust the brightness levels according to different activities or moods. Dimming your lights not only creates a more comfortable atmosphere but also helps save energy when less illumination is required. Dimmer switches may also create problems when using new LEDs if we do not check compatibility.  Many older dimmer switches require a heavier load (more watts) to operate properly. 

Safety and Environmental Friendliness: LED bulbs are free from toxic substances such as mercury, making them safe for both your home and the environment. Unlike compact fluorescent lamps (CFLs) and other types of bulbs that contain hazardous materials.  When you purchase GoodBulb LEDs we provide free shipping at the end of a bulbs life, so it’s recycled properly.  We also offer recycling services for all older technology light bulbs.

Cost Savings: Although LED bulbs may have a higher upfront cost compared to traditional bulbs, they will save you money. Their energy efficiency and long lifespan translate into lower electricity bills and reduced maintenance expenses. Over time, the cost of purchasing LED bulbs is an investment considering the savings you'll enjoy from their efficiency and durability. You may also be preventing a future trip to the ER, way too many people hurt themselves trying to climb a ladder changing light bulbs.

By choosing LED lighting for your home, you're making a smart investment in energy-efficient technology that benefits both your household and the planet. From reducing energy consumption and saving money to enjoying longer-lasting bulbs and customizable lighting, the advantages of LEDs are clear.
