If you want to illuminate your property, you have a lot of choices for light fixtures. A light that focuses downward can accent and provide increased safety. Pole lights can be beneficial but choosing LED outdoor fence lighting will give you many benefits. Let’s check out some of the good things LED has to offer.
Easy Installation
Installing most LED systems is not difficult. You don’t have to run a lot of house wiring, conduit, and create additional 120-volt AC circuits. Most modern LED outdoor fence lighting systems operate on only 12 volts of power. Low voltage systems are safer than standard light fixtures.
To install your new lights, you only need to run the small diameter wires and connect the system to a transformer that converts 120 volts to 12 volts.
Low Maintenance
Did you know that most LED bulbs outlast standard light bulbs by a ten to one margin or more? In fact, some bulbs can last as long as 50,000 hours. Once you install your lights, there’s very little else to do and maintain. Depending on how many years you live at your home, you may never need to change the bulbs.
Energy Savings
LED lights require far less energy than typical light bulbs. In fact, an LED bulb that emits the same light as a standard 40-watt bulb may burn as few as 6 watts. This is an important consideration when you install outdoor fence lighting. With LED, you will save a lot of money on electricity.
Safety
Standard bulbs generate a great deal of heat. This can make them a fire hazard and can cause burns when touched. Because LED bulbs burn cool, you can touch them while they are on and not have to worry about burns and they present fewer fire and injury hazards than incandescent light bulbs.
