LED Flashlight Mysteries, What Is A LED Emitter?

Traditional flashlights aren't that complicated to work out. Their beauty is in their simplicity, however a new range of high performance LED flashlights have changed or that.

Or so you might think.

In this series we are going to take a look at everything that makes up LED flashlights and explain them in plain English.

So lets take at the terms LED and LED emitter

What does LED mean?

LED is the new lighting technology everyone is talking about.

The term LED refers to the light emitting diode. In technical terms, when the electrons rush through the semiconductor, the minute light sources brighten up and release small amount of heat as well.

What makes the LED light sources cooler is the fact that light is produced through light emitting diodes, instead of the incandescent bulbs.

Due to this, LED lights are durable and help you save the energy.

What is a LED emitter?

LED technology has varied applications and it is also being used in the emitters.

The emitters are an array of LED lights arranged in a manner that makes them offer more light that can be colored as well.

Why is LED better than incandescent?

There are many reasons why LED is superior to incandescent lighting. Especially in something like a flashlight.

The first is the reduced amount of power the LED light uses. LED flashlights are far more energy efficient than incandescent ones meaning they run for longer.

They also put out less heat which makes them more durable.

Look for the life of the emitters and the voltage they use when you make your purchases.

Be a wise shopper and buy the best while saving your hard earned money.
