Recent increases in electricity bill made consumers rethink their spending. Light on unnecessarily long baths with hot shower on and overuse of appliances are some of the excesses that had to be controlled. But who, nevertheless, continued to pay dearly for the energy even called for the replacement of lamps throughout the house. However, you have selected the right kind? Anyone who has bought or thinking of opting for LED nailed it. According to experts, this is the most environmentally friendly option and cost-effective. In addition to low power consumption, the LED lasts 33 times longer than traditional incandescent, which are already out of the market.
Despite being 16.6 times more expensive than the other (costs, on average, R$ 24.90, compared to R $ 1.50 incandescent), LED lamps represent savings of 83% on the account. This means that if the consumer exchange 20 bulbs at home, at once, will have to spend about R$ 500 (in the case of incandescent, would be R$ 30), but the investment will pay off in the coming months, since consumption is six times less than the traditional one.
