Why LED Light is the Sensible Choice for Garden Bollards

Garden bollard lights can be thought of as the way-markers of garden lighting, tracing a safe route through the garden and delineating separate areas. Garden bollards also produce extremely attractive, low level lighting that not only illuminates pathways and lawn edges but also adds to the beauty of your night-time garden.

LED garden bollards fulfill both functions, that is, way-marking and decorative, in a way previously unimagined. Let’s consider the practical elements first:

• The directional quality of LED lamps means that they are better at illuminating hazards and routes than traditional lamps, which scatter light rather than send it in a specific direction

• The fact that LED lamps produce minimal heat makes them safer for low level lighting, animals and children are at no risk of getting burns. Traditional lamps produce 80% of their energy as heat and halogen lamps, in particular, get extremely hot indeed

• LED lamps do not ‘blow’ they just fade away, so you will never be left in the predicament of switching on the lights to find the bulbs have blown – a potential disaster if your bollards are marking hazards such as the edge of a stream or pond.

• If you use LED lamps for 6 hours a day, they will last for 44 years before even beginning to fade away!

Now, here are the decorative advantages of LED garden bollards:

•LED lamps are the only artificial light source available in colour
•LED white light is far more attractive than the murky yellow of tungsten lamps

There are also economic and environmental benefits of LED lighting that makes it the intelligent choice for all lighting situations, both interior and exterior.

With this information in mind, why wouldn’t you choose LED garden bollards?
