What Is LED Lighting & Why It’s a Smart Choice

Whether you’re lighting up your outdoors, remodelling the kitchen or creating that cosy corner to nestle up indoors, LED lighting should be at the top of your list for modern lighting solutions.

What does LED stand for in LED lights? 

LED lighting equals Light Emitting Diode, in simple terms, they are a type of light that use semiconductors often referred to as chips. Each chip is like a tiny minicomputer that’s controls the efficiency, brightness and temperature. LED lighting is the smarter choice these days by delivering more light, no wasted heat, and require less energy to run.

LED lights Australia & Local Considerations

When considering new lighting options for your home, the question you need to ask yourself is are you requiring a light for indoors, outdoors or even a wet area like a bathroom? As each area comes with their own requirements. 

• Bathroom & wet areas: In Australia bathroom lighting needs to meet zoning and IP requirements. For example, fittings near a shower or bath need a higher protection against water. Our Definitive Bathroom Lighting Guide explains these standards in detail to help you make an informed decision. Looking for minimalist contemporary options check out our Staten vanity wall light.   
• Indoor spaces: Indoors the focus is style and mood of your room. Warm white LEDs (2700-3000k) are a popular choice for living areas. Neutral whites in (3500-4000k) are a perfect complement for functional areas like kitchens and workplaces. Wanting to add a soft glow the Harmers LED Wall light with its backlit design will fit the bill. For minimalist interiors consider the Bowmore reeded led wall light.
