Return on investment through LED


led lights
LEDs are more expensive to buy than conventional bulbs, but then you save a lot of money afterward. Because light sources that use modern LED technology consume many times less energy. As a result, you achieve a quick amortization of the purchase price. And the replacement costs are due to the long life of LEDs vanishingly small.

Key facts at a glance:


·        LEDs are more expensive to buy
·        But: much lower energy consumption = less running costs
·        Thereby fast amortization
·        Long life minimizes replacement costs
·        Little to no maintenance necessary
·        LEDs save you money in the long term and protect the environment

When switching to LED, many customers are deterred by the higher purchase price. Modern LEDs are more expensive compared to conventional lighting solutions. In the operation, however, the situation is exactly the opposite: Here, the LED luminaires score with a low power requirement and thus reduce the ongoing energy costs to a minimum. Conventional lightings such as halogen or energy-saving lamps lure the purchase with reasonable prices, but it is expensive afterward. Due to the high power consumption and the regularly required maintenance you pay a lot of money.
Another crucial factor is the lifetime. Here, too, LEDs are at the forefront: depending on the product, they last between 10 and 20 years. The replacement costs are correspondingly low. Halogen bulbs need to be replaced much more frequently because they give up the spirit after only 2,000 hours on average. With an average operating time of around 60 hours per week, you need to replace the halogen lights about every six months - which in the long run costs significantly more.

Calculating the ROI: How can you save money with LED?


The initial cost: halogen vs. LED


Let's say you use the CREST LED 64548 Classic A Eco Pro 116W E27 with a lifetime of 2,000 hours, a period of 0.6 years. The corresponding LED alternative is, for example, the energy-efficient CREST LED Classic E27 A 14W 827 Matt with a service life of 25,000 hours. With an average operating time of 60 hours per week, this figure is around 8 years, more than 13 times longer than the comparable halogen product.
While the LED costs you around 7 EUR once for 8 years, you have to pay about 22 EUR for your halogen lamps for the comparable period. And there the higher energy costs are not included. Conclusion? The change to LED is worthwhile even at the cost.

The energy costs: halogen vs. LED


Not only is the purchase a cost factor, also the current energy costs to book. Using the example of the above-mentioned halogen lamp and the CREST LED LED alternative, we will show you the costs associated with which lighting solution.

Conclusion

The switch to LED is worthwhile, even for small quantities. Even if the initial investment is higher, you save even more on the running costs. And the replacement costs are drastically reduced. In addition to the numerous financial benefits, the time factor is also important: You save all maintenance and repair costs and thus a lot of effort and effort. Last but not least, the environment also benefits: its long lifetime means it consumes fewer bulbs, requires less electricity and, unlike other products, is recyclable.
