led

LED is the popular abbreviated term referring to Light Emitting Diodes, the light source used in a wide variety of electronic applications ranging from television and computer screens, to traffic lights, hazard signs, cell phones, pocket calculators, lamps, and digital clocks. Sports fans will also be familiar with the huge LED powered electronic scoreboards used in today's modern, state of the art stadiums.

LEDs have gained popularity in the "green economy" of the new millennium, largely because of their value as an effective resource for conserving energy. Among the many advantages light sources powered by LED technology offer are their durability — LED powered light bulbs and tubes tend to last much longer than their more traditional counterparts.

LED bulbs also emit less heat, and require much less energy to function. Because of these factors, LED technology offers lighting solutions for both business and home use that are cost effective and environmentally sound.

You'll find bloggers lighting up the internet with talk about the virtues of LED at sites like Super Bright Leds and How Stuff Works.
