LED DEFINITION

Light emitting diodes (LEDs) are semiconductor bulbs that give out light when electric currents are passed through them. They are highly different than typical incandescent light bulbs that only use five percent of its energy to create light, with the rest coming out as wasted heat. LEDs are far more efficient. LEDs are available in low-output dim varieties – most often used as indicator signals in normal home electronics, or in holiday lights – as well as bright, high output varieties that are used in all purpose lighting.
