We’ve heard for years and years that going LED is extremely difficult, time intensive and migraine-inducing for absolutely everyone involved – with difficulties all around. Supply, for instance. Manufacture, for the other. Suppliers, in the other instance. But you know what? That’s misinformation in the highest form. For the past few years, the advances in LED technology – spurred by advances made by big-name players such as Hitachi, Panasonic, Phillips and Osram have made LED technology accessible enough so that manufacturers of older technologies such as super inefficient lightbulbs have started to get worried.

Take a store front retrofit, for example. You can harness a variety of amazing feature lights such as LED rope lights and LED strip lights in order to get a bang up to date, modern, and truly fresh approach to your shop, all at a cost significantly lower than what most would have you think.

For the sake of a store front, where said light will be used in a remarkably heavy fashion, you can look forward to a guaranteed 80,000 hours + of continuous operation before there is any likelihood that they will wear out.

What about installation, you say? If things were really as simple as that, wouldn’t everyone have LED lighting by now? This is true. Say your fixtures and fittings are… well, of a certain age (we’re talking fixtures that would predate the 1970s by the way – absolutely everything else will be fine!) then it might get a little bit tricky. Saying that, there are a number of fantastic suppliers out there such as North Wales based LED Illuminations which are there for you, for the long haul.

When you express interest in an LED Illuminations product, you’re covered. The company is there for you from that very moment – when it comes to guiding you into a choice that’s right for you and your premises, helping you along with every single question you might have picked up along the way, finding a colour range that’s right for you – and even covering tricky questions you might have picked up along the way, they can assist you with absolutely everything along the way.

Older bulb manufacturers have been shown to be showing extreme remorse about the fact that when LED technology was floundering in the same manner as all emerging tech, they didn’t throw their hats into the ring. With the right amount of investment, cultivation and development, LED technology now is a very real contender – and thus all manner of rumours and hearsay is slung around in the hope that they might dissuade people from choosing a superior choice – that all but stands to uproot the old.
