"Lights out an hour" on the day of the Foshan government to promote half price LED lights

On Saturday, the Chancheng District Economic and Technological Promotion Bureau and the Foshan Lighting Association, jointly launched in the Oriental Plaza and Pu Jun metro, tens of millions of dollars special LED products Huimin buy activities. On the day of the event attracted nearly 2000 people to join in, sold a total of more than 22 thousand lights.

As a result of the enthusiastic response of the public, and tomorrow and the value of the lights out an hour on the day, Foshan Lighting Association decided to do a good buy again in the Oriental Plaza activities to further promote LED energy-saving lamps.

Field test results, attracted public panic

According to the organizers of Foshan Lighting Association Secretary General Zhang Hua introduced on Saturday the group purchase activity with the theme of "lights off for earth 1 hours, as well as the earth in 1 lights, green theme to attract a lot of public attention. However, the public does not seem to know much about LED, many people expressed doubts that the same energy-saving lamps, why LED lights higher prices? In order to prove the high efficiency of LED lighting, low energy consumption of scientific and technological characteristics, the staff at the scene to compare the LED lights, ordinary energy-saving lamps and traditional incandescent lighting effect.

It is estimated that 1 LED lighting efficiency of only 12 incandescent light bulbs, the equivalent of the 5W lamp brightness of the equivalent of 20W energy saving lamp or 40W incandescent lamp, and only one of the 1 5W lights a month of electricity consumption is only about 1 degrees to about 1 degrees of electricity (LED), LED. Energy plus buy price is only about half of the usual, many people have said after seeing the buy". The same day, the public bought a total of more than 22 thousand LED lights. This result makes Zhang Hua quite unexpected, because the public responded well, they decided to do a game tomorrow.

Zhang Hua said that since last year, Chancheng District, large-scale promotion of LED lights, the first in the road, government offices and hospitals, libraries, schools and other public places, including government offices have been basically replaced with LED lights. After testing, these units use LED lights, saving up to 50%, and some even up to 80%. In addition to the above places, office buildings and large shopping malls is also a higher prevalence of LED lamps, reaching more than 10%. Zhang Hua revealed.

LED lamp household penetration to be improved

"Relatively speaking, LED lights in the average household is not much, penetration rate of only 3% ~ 5%. Zhang Hua said, after all, the need for a change in the process of lighting. "

When it comes to the popularity of LED lighting difficulties, Zhang Hua think the price is still the main reason. He said, because the technology was developed, not mature enough, so the price is high, the small power LED lamps for the price of the ordinary energy-saving lamps 1 ~ 2 times of high power LED lamps prices for ordinary energy-saving lamps 3 ~ 5 times, "technology to improve after the next one or two years should be able to reduce the price down".

Reporters visited yesterday found that the public's lack of awareness of LED lights, but also led to a major cause of the LED lamp is difficult to penetrate into the family. In the Chancheng area, several large supermarket shelves, the reporter saw LED light is very small, most of the decorative colorful night lights. A supermarket salesman told reporters that the customer asked the LED bulb is not much, customers look for energy-saving lamps, so there is only one brand on the shelf LED bulbs.

At the time of the purchase of light bulbs, Mr. Song told reporters that he had never heard of LED lights, do not know what kind of lighting is more energy-efficient, generally look for a certain brand to buy, or choose to promote merchandise. The reporter then interviewed several people, most of them do not understand the concept of LED, the first choice to buy cheap lamps, environmental performance is not too much. Supporters of environmental protection, said Ms. Zhou, the home is part of the LED lights, usually buy the lamp will pay attention to energy efficiency logo, do not necessarily buy LED lights, but will choose low energy consumption products".

China LED network editor's point of view: the current market share of energy-saving lamps is still greater than LED, but with the gradual deepening of the concept of energy saving and environmental protection, LED into ordinary families will be more flat road.
