LED

A solid-state light source that is efficient, long-lasting, and the modern standard outdoors.

LED, or light-emitting diode, is a solid-state light source that produces light by passing current through a semiconductor rather than heating a filament. It is the modern standard in landscape lighting for good reason: an LED draws a fraction of the power of older halogen lamps, runs cool, and can last tens of thousands of hours, which means years of service with little maintenance. Lower draw also reduces voltage drop, allowing longer wire runs and more fixtures per transformer. Quality LEDs are available in warm color temperatures and high CRI, so they no longer carry the cold, blue reputation of early products. We build every system around warm, high-CRI LEDs for efficiency and lasting performance.
