Longevity.

Few things are as unenjoyable for a sail boater as having to climb a mast to replace an anchor or masthead light. It's even worse when you are talking about larger boats with very high masts and incandescent bulbs that can burn out or fail several times a year. Imagine, however, only having to replace these lights once every 5-10 or so years. This is the kind of longevity LEDs provide boaters with. Even power boaters and luxury yacht owners can enjoy great longevity benefits from switching to LEDs. With LEDs lasting up to 10 years, you'll stop spending money on replacement bulbs, spend less money and time on maintenance, and you won't find yourself dealing with bulbs burning out at the worst possible times. Although they cost more initially, the high efficiency of LEDs företags skyltar  combined with their extreme longevity means they'll pay for themselves within a couple years, and from then on its pure savings as you enjoy your updated and hassle free lighting.

3. High Durability.

One of the big complaints among boaters, especially power boaters, long range cruisers, and commercial fishers, is the tendency of their incandescent lighting to fail under rough conditions. Under heavy seas, driving rain, and the pounding from plowing through waves, the fragile incandescent bulb just can't handle the abuse. In the majority of cases, the thin wire filament in the bulb simply breaks apart under the stress of being banged around and subjected to constant vibrations. LEDs on the other hand are a totally different animal and can take such conditions in stride. LEDs are known as solid state lighting, which essentially means the LED is more like a transistor than a light bulb. LEDs have no glass bulb, no vacuum or internal gases, and most importantly, no fragile wire filament to break or burn out. When installed in a quality housing with quality hardware, a marine grade LED light can withstand rough conditions that would cause a standard incandescent to fail, and will keep on running without so much as a flicker in output.

4. Versatility.

When most of us think of LED boat lights we envision an entire fixture that resembles our current incandescent fixtures, including the housing and hardware. What many forget is that LEDs företags skyltar  themselves are in reality solid state electronics that are very small in size. Although small in size, they produce a lot of light. This means they can be fitted into all kinds of non traditional housing and fixture designs, giving boaters a bigger than ever variety of lighting options. LEDs can for instance be designed into strips. These strips can then be taped or glued into place underneath cabinets, gunwales, along stair edges, and just about anywhere, allowing boaters to create effective and good looking illumination, without any actual fixtures being visible. They can be made into tiny wall washers for hallways and closets. They can be adapted to spotlights and spreaders. They can be had in color changing configurations, and they can be integrated into furniture and appliances. They can even be had in traditional designs that will directly replace your existing cabin lights simply by changing a bulb. Let's see an incandescent light bulb do all that.

5. Money Savings.

Yes, that's right, you read correctly. We said LEDs företags skyltar  will save you money. Oh, you might not believe it at first when you see how much that new LED spreader light costs, but trust us, in the long run you'll be coming out ahead. Take for instance a 50 watt halogen spreader light. One of these will cost around $50.00 to $100.00 depending on quality, and will consume around 5 amps per hour. Additionally, it'll need new bulbs at least every 500 to 1,500 or so hours at about $5.00 a pop, if not more often due to tough operating conditions. An LED spreader light costing $120.00 and producing the same amount of light however, will pull only 12-14 watts at 1.5 amps per hour, and will not need a "bulb" replacement for around 50,000 hours. This means that not only will you use less fuel to recharge your batteries, you'd have to replace your halogen spreader bulb at least 50 times to match the LEDs longevity. Then factor in new housing seals, replacement lenses, and other wear items that need to be addressed with halogens, and suddenly that halogen spreader doesn't look like so much of a value.
