Shedding Some Light on Full-Spectrum LEDs
As someone who’s tracked LED lighting since its early days as a
commercially available technology, my own experience with the products
has evolved. I live in an older house with overhead lighting only in the
kitchen and bathrooms, so this has mostly meant experimenting with LED
bulbs (or “lamps,” in lighting designer lingo) in the 14 or 15 table
fixtures scattered around my home.

Temporary Commercial Power Distribution
When working as an electrician in a processing plant, I was often called
in to work on renovations, new area construction, and emergency repair
scenarios. Often there wasn’t permanent power available, so temporary
power using extension cords was necessary to power up tools and
equipment for the job.

LED Work Lighting Helps Contractors Get the Job Done
It truly amazes me how LEDs have transformed the lighting industry in
just a decade. In 2012, manufacturers introduced the first bulbs to
match the output of a standard 60W incandescent. They weren’t dimmable
and could cost $25 or more. Fast forward to 2023, and LEDs now dominate
the lighting market, and inexpensive replacement lamps can cost less
than $5 and last 10-20 years.
