The LED Generation
LED Source: The GREEN LIGHT is in our Hands
LED stands for Light Emitting Diode which is essentially a semiconductor device that emits visible light when electrical current passes through it. Diodes only let electric current run in one direction but LED produces photons of light when this occurs.
In this way, light is produced in a highly efficient manner since it does not depend on a filament or any other device to convert electricity into light.
The fundamental technological benefit of LED lighting is reduced power consumption when compared with conventional bulbs. When designed properly, LED lighting can approach 80% efficiency in the conversion of electrical energy to light energy. LEDs also provide an extended life versus conventional lighting.
For GDS LSL the LED means even Low Energy Device, the LED source allow the Lamp Enginner developper to push to ENERGY SAVE solutions
