LED (light-emitting diode) lights are highly energy-efficient, durable, and long-lasting, converting about 90% of their energy into light instead of heat, and lasting 25 to 50 times longer than incandescent bulbs. They contain no mercury, are more resistant to breakage, and are used in a wide variety of applications, from everyday home lighting to specialized forensic and medical uses.   LED Lights comparisons
