High end bulbs meanwhile cost upwards of 80 or more.
Is it worth changing light bulbs to led.
Just to give you a comparison between the original and led lights both using the parking lights and brake lights.
With a standard halogen or xenon bulb the bulb connects directly to the wiring harness and then screws into the back of the headlight lens.
A good rule of thumb to understand is that a typical led light will use about 12 to 18 percent of the electricity as a traditional incandescent or halogen bulb would use for comparable lumens the amount of brightness a light gives off.
There s an additional component a heat sink that must be accommodated somewhere under the hood.
This price is often balanced out by longevity because these bulbs can last anywhere from 10 to 15 years or more depending on use.
As you can see the is an increase in brightness on both the parking light and brake light modes the light emitted from the led is much cleaner there is a crisp transition between the parking and brake lights and the led illuminates much quicker.
If half your electrical bill is comprised of lighting use you can probably expect roughly an 80 percent reduction in half your bill or about a 40 percent.
The lowest priced 60 watt led bulb on the market costs around 10 which is five times more than a comparable incandescent.
Is changing out to led bulbs the right move for you.
