LED based landscape lights provide a number of distinct efficiency and practical advantages. Due to these advantages, LED optimization is the future of the industry. With our cutting edge technology and unmatched attention to detail, we’re proud to be leading the way.

LEDs are a lot more efficient than standard Lamps, which means they require far less Wattage to drive them. By changing to LED you will reduce your electricity consumption and hence reduce your electrical costs. LEDs are initially more expensive, when compared with discharge & fluorescent lamp technologies but if you factor in the lifetime of the products, labor for lamp replacements and the cost saving in terms of electricity bills, there feasibility from a cost versus benefit perspective becomes favorable.

Always remember that Landscape Lighting is an art, and just like an irrigation system, it requires a professional to plan, install, and maintain. In order to achieve safe, optimal, and long life from a lighting plan, a qualified installer should always be consulted to create the functions that an end user is looking to get from a lighting plan.

As the watt consumption is significantly higher, traditional fixtures become very hot, so much so they cannot be touched after running for only a few minutes. LEDs create heat as well, but far less than traditional lamps. This results in a longer lamp life, reduction in the threat of colour shift over time and extended fixture life. To safe guard against overheating, FX LED fixtures feature heat sinks, as well as temperature sensors. In the unlikely event of a fixture overheating, the FX board has a fully managed heat dissipation system that will automatically reduce the current which will actively cool the fixture down.

All LEDs age and lose a little of their output over time, some more than others depending on the quality of the LED. This generally determines the price and longevity of the specified LED fitting or product.
Depending on the quality and the application LEDs can last 50,000 hours or more. At the end of their life they don’t just burn out like a traditional lights. LEDs slowly dim over time and at very low levels, so even after 50,000 hours of use in most situations LEDs will continue to illuminate sufficiently.
