LED Lighting Ideas

time2010/12/14

LED lights are an eco-friendly option for lighting up outdoor areas and hard-to-reach spaces in your home. Not only do they consume less energy, but their life span is longer. Cool to the touch, LEDs, which stands for light-emitting diodes, will not emit a high amount of heat, which is ideal in your home.
????? Lighting Ideas
LED spotlights are affordable and simple to install. Use them to showcase photographs and artwork or to light up your kitchen cabinets. They don't require drilling or wiring and can run on batteries. The easy installation process makes them perfect for any room in your home, such as a workspace or under a bookcase. Light up a dark hallway or entryway with a set of spotlights on the ceiling. A stairway leading down to a basement is an ideal spot for an LED spotlight.
LED strip lighting installed under kitchen cabinets will accent the space with a cool glow and can be used as a kitchen night-light. Because they are packaged in a waterproof container, you can use LED strips near kitchen sinks and bathroom vanities. Install the strips above any work surface for extra task lighting and for an attractive design. Use them in your foyer under a mirror or above a doorway to showcase a piece of art or pottery.
For drawers in your kitchen, bathroom and office, consider installing LED drawer lights. Attached to a sensor and battery operated, drawer lights are triggered to light up when needed. Use them for hard-to-reach kitchen cupboards and basement areas, which tend to be darker spaces in your home. Cool to touch, they won't heat up a small space.
LED lamps can be used in your living room on either side of a couch for reading or in your bedroom. LED lamps with adjustable arms are perfect for your workspace, where you can light up different areas of your desk. Lamps come in many different designs and styles to match the decor in your home. LED block lamps are very modern and can be installed from the ceiling or resting on a dresser or accent table. Made of translucent blocks, these lamps create a sleek and modern design.
LED string lights work indoors and outdoors and can accent a variety of areas. Install them under chair rail in your dining room or outdoors around your porch. Cooler than fluorescent lights, LED lights will create a soft glow in any area of your home. For home theaters, install them behind the screen to create a backlight for your favorite movies.
????? Tips
LED lights use less power than a night-light, so consider using these energy-efficient lights for kid's rooms, bathrooms and hallways.
LED lights are faster at lighting up than regular lightbulbs, so consider replacing your traditional bulbs with LEDs. They will reduce your energy costs as well.
