SSLPro Posted October 17, 2010 Report Share Posted October 17, 2010 The answer is generally -FALSE, whether well known substandard lines like ;feit or Lights of America,-- or Philips or Lsg all of the SSL YOU WILL SEE IS SUBSTANDARD;The objective science behind this is simple None mentioned above use AC/leds - why does that matter-HEAT MGMT Leds that take Ac line voltage and run it through a DC power source are apt to have failures. Whether its heat bubbling phosphors resulting in color shift or failure of ANY other components- Any knowlegable SSL pro knows using products with fins - is like being a proponent of using a brick style cell phone, instead of a smart phone. Good ,usable information regarding SSL is / or should be a component of a detailed LIGHT AUDIT/ and solution pkg regarding kWh reductions - It is a home inspection item often overlooked - how many dollars to get the lighting right. Learn about what constitutes quality SSL - to be able to recommend whats worth having- It ain't incandescents or CFLs those were the lights from a soon to be bygone era/ Good - riddance - SSLPro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SSLPro Posted October 17, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 17, 2010 marc, Correct about Led knowledge - As english is my third language - I should apologize if syntax or spelling errors hampered content delivery - What skills I lack in written communication ,I make up for in SSL acumen . Sorry if my in-elegance with english prevented you or anyone from taking away my meaning or advice- curious do most N amer - home inspections evaluate kWh usage as it pertains to current lighting paradigms?Is sound advice regarding the benefits of the use of SSL on the radar of those who council bldg owners how to have better systems within their bldgs whether home or commercial?

Marc Posted October 17, 2010 Report Share Posted October 17, 2010 curious do most N amer - home inspections evaluate kWh usage as it pertains to current lighting paradigms? I do not. Is sound advice regarding the benefits of the use of SSL on the radar of those who council bldg owners how to have better systems within their bldgs whether home or commercial? I don't do that either. Except for your posts, I've not heard of LED's being used for general illumination in dwellings. I'll google it out of curiosity but basically, I'm just an inspector, not an LED salesman. Marc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charlieb Posted December 2, 2010 Report Share Posted December 2, 2010 The LED products at the big box stores are junk. They will not deliver the rated hours. As a source for my opinion....me. My church has been dabbling with the products to find a way to lower our utility bills. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
