led power consumption
- According to the U.S. Department of Energy, LED's use 75% less energy than traditional incandescent bulbs
- LED’s release very less heat
Induction lighting Vs. LED lighting
Energy management system and energy efficient lighting solution is at a ramp up stage with new innovations hitting the market at a revolutionary speed. You might have seen or heard about induction lighting and would have certainly seen LED flat panels and LED tubes in gas station lights or parking garage lights. The perplexity may arise when you have to decide between LED and induction light.
Understanding the disparity
For big industrialists, easy maintenance and cost effectiveness may be the parameters to be considered while selecting the lighting, but for common populace life span and bright light may be much significant factors along with the price.
Life: Both induction and LED lights have almost similar life span of 80,000 to 100,000 hours depending upon the type and model of the product but LED lights are still costlier than induction lights.
Conversion Efficacy: LED lights have energy efficacy of 35-55 lumen/watt. Some expensive models may also have 70-75 lumen/watt efficacies whereas induction lights have conversion efficacy ranging between 65-82 lumen/watt. To put it simple, for a 200 watt fixture LED may produce only 11,00 lumen as compared to 16,000 lumen of induction light which means 31% more light.
Cost: To make an LED light fixture for 200 W, an array of LED is used and that may cost 50 to 70% more than the induction lamp that use similar technology as of fluorescent lights to reduce the cost. However, mass production of LED may erase the cost gap in future.
Purposefulness: Light emitting diodes or LEDs are not considered as general purpose lighting because it has poor color rendering index and limited lighting. On the other hand, induction lights are available with same life span, higher wattage and brighter light. Induction lights are surely the next revolutionary and efficient lighting solution.

Key benefits of LED’s
- Typical LED requires only 30-60 milliwatts to operate
- Durable and shockproof unlike glass bulb lamp
- Reduces stray light pollution on streetlights

Energy Management with SP1000
SP1000 is the most advanced and efficient energy management system, which is used for big industries to manage the energy consumptions and wastage. The energy costs are sky rocketing all around the world; SP1000 brings the best of technology to allow you having a peaceful breath.
SP1000 has endless opportunity with hybrid system that can take plenty of decisions and can also suggest ways to save energy with enhanced load carrying capabilities. Not only this but this equipment also has software to show up the saving actions as it maintains the power level through all your facility.
Demand Charge Saving With SP1000
While most people struggle to manage their kilowatt consumption of power, it is not in their slightest realization that a major part of their bill is “demand” cost (almost 35%). Demand power is the peak Kilowatts that you consume or is required in the peak hours of a day. SP1000 can greatly reduce this demand cost by 68% through proper power management and no wastage. Thus, you can largely reduce your monthly bills.
Other benefits of SP100
Apart from saving large on demand cost, SP1000 can also benefit in following ways:
• Enhanced capability of carrying load within the existing circuits
• Enhanced voltage throughout
• Reduction in carbon footprint
• Improved balance
• Reduced harmonic
• Reduced negative energy
• Reduced KWH
• Reduced back current in neutral lines
• Helps in identification of maintenance issues
• Access the data remotely
• Real time system parameters
• Can store data for up to 2 years
Applications of SP1000
SP1000 system can be used in locations of power consumption units such as:
• Factories
• Hospitals
• Airports
• Industries
• Hotels
• High rise offices
• Elevators
• Compressors
• HVAC
• Super markets
• Water pumps
With SP1000, you can stay proactive in your approach to identify and rectify any maintenance issues rather than being just reactive.

Incredible Induction Lighting with Energy Saving Features
Induction lighting is tremendously capable to save energy that is much higher than any other traditional source of lighting. Induction lights definitely has emerged as one the preferred options of lighting for industries, street lights, gas station lights, parking garage lights and other public lighting; it is also present as a very strong competition for LED lighting as they both have almost similar features and benefits, but induction lights are cheaper than LED lights.
What is induction light?
Induction lights too have mercury in gas fill exactly like fluorescent lights. Induction light emits Ultra violet radiation on agitation of gas fill which is converted into light of white color due to phosphorous coating. Conversely, induction lights does not have electrodes, they rather have high frequency generator and power coupler to start the flow of current inside the bulb. Thus generated current produces a magnetic field of radio frequency that agitates the gas fill and emits lights.
Energy Saving Features
Since induction lights uses high frequency generator in place of electrodes they have a larger life as compared to other lighting options like fluorescent lights and candescent lights. Moreover, induction lights produce high lumen in lesser wattage as it has high energy conversion rate with minimum current wastage. An induction lamp is capable of converting 80% of the energy into light and that is why it can greatly cut down the monthly electricity bills.
Life of Induction Lights
Induction lights can last up to 20 times more than the regular candescent bulbs. Induction lamps have a life span of 100,000 hours to completely trounce the 5000 hours of candescent bulbs.
Other benefits
Other than energy efficiency and longer life, induction lighting has following main benefits:
- Instant start
- Above 80 CRI (color rendering index)
- Excellent performance in extreme climatic conditions
- Almost zero maintenance
- No vibration, glare, noise, flickering or stroking
- Less carbon footprint

Renew Lighting with Revived Technology of Induction Lighting
Induction lighting is an old technology that has been there for over 100 years but recently with the grown awareness and need of safer environment along with energy efficient lighting solutions, induction lighting is renewed to become popular and adept for today’s need.
To put it simply, induction lighting is like the fluorescent lighting that is very common in household and industry but it differs from them as it does not have electrodes or filaments (as in the case of candescent bulb) that caused lights to burn out quickly. This aids extremely long life to induction lighting that can be as long as 100,000 hours; putting it in a practical perspective, a system of induction lighting can last over 11 years if used continuously 24/7 or over 25 years if used regularly for 10 hours per day.
Benefits Vs Price
Although, induction lighting may cost a bit higher than regular LED lighting or fluorescent lighting but it has following superior features that makes it to be cost effective in long run:
- Practically maintenance free operation
- Long life
- High power efficacy, it can deliver 60+ or in some cases 70+ lumens for every watt
- Superior CRI (color rendering index) 80+ or 90+ in some cases
- Cool temperature with a choice of warm or cool white
- Starts instantly
- No noise, flickering, or stroking
- High power factor of 90+
- Some units may also have dimmable capacity
Application of induction lighting
High power efficiency, long life, and instant start features make it to be vigorously used as parking garage lights, gas station lights, street lights or wherever high lumen light output is required. Since it is maintenance free, induction lighting is ideal for places that are hard to reach to save high maintenance cost such as street lighting, high ceilings, and tunnels.
