Why should I use LEDs for my commercial parking lot lights?

Whether replacing old HID lights or setting up a whole new area lighting system, LEDs are the choice that makes the most sense. They have a lifespan several times longer than any other potential solution, which when combined with the energy savings, continue to save you money and maintenance year over year.

For commercial parking, most previously installed lights will be using either high-pressure sodium or metal-halide bulbs, which have substantially shorter lifetimes than LEDs.  They also include additional components like ballasts, that are prone to failure.  While these and other similar types of bulbs can often compete with LEDs in terms of brightness, the same illumination requires several times the amount of energy and they degrade significantly faster.

Not only that, LEDs are generally smaller and more compact, making them easier to handle and maintain.  Lighting parking lots can be a big labor cost, one that is easily controlled with strategic product selection.
