Ecological Benefits of LED Headlights

There are many ways in which LED bulbs are better for the environment than other headlight types. For example, LEDs do not consume as much energy as other forms of lighting. Additionally, the bulbs last a very long time. You may never have to change them as long as you have your car. That saves waste. Plus, LED bulbs do not contain the harmful substances in some other forms of lighting, so if you do have to dispose of the bulbs, there is less pollution.

Safety Benefits of LED Headlights

LED headlamps can also provide some additional safety if you have them properly installed by a professional. They offer additional vision for you without making it difficult for oncoming traffic to see. While it may cost a little extra to have LED headlights installed, you can’t put a price tag on driving safer at night.

LED Environmental Benefits

LEDs are an environmentally friendly lightbulb. First of all, they don’t consume as much energy. That’s good for your car battery. Also, they can last a decade or two. So you may never have to replace your bulbs again. Not only does that safe waste, but if an LED does break, you don’t have to worry about the potentially harmful chemical compounds that are found in some other types of bulbs. You also save the time and money of replacing the bulbs, so it’s win-win for you and the environment.

LED Safety Benefits

When LED headlights are installed correctly, they can have safety benefits for driving at night. This is because LED bulbs are very bright, but shouldn’t be blinding to oncoming drivers (again, it’s about proper installation). Are LEDs a little more expensive up front? Yes. Do they save you time and money? Also, yes. And if they happen to save your life, you can’t put a price tag on that.

• Make sure your lights are on – San Diego can be a brightly lit city, so you may make it from your parking place onto the main roads without realizing your lights are not on yet. If your car has an automatic light setting, use it. It’s a great way to make sure you always have your lights on when you need them but never accidentally drain your battery by forgetting to shut them.
• Always check your lights before driving at night – Once you’re behind the wheel, you may be tempted to ignore signs that one of your headlights is out. If the road doesn’t seem as well lit as it should be, pull over and check the lights.
• Don’t rely on your dash lights – 20 years ago, if your dash lights were on, you knew your headlights were on. Now, cars have dash lights that are always on, so you can’t rely on this method for knowing if you flipped the headlights on or not.
• Help other drivers out – If another driver is out at night with just the parking lights on, they probably haven’t noticed yet that their lights are off. Flashing your high beams really quick won’t blind the other driver but will just give a polite notification that he or she needs to flip the headlights on (caution: flashing your high beams may not be legal in all circumstances).

Safety Benefits of Switching to LEDs

A correctly installed LED headlight offers you maximum visibility without blinding oncoming drivers (assuming you switch to low beams when passing). While LED lights may be a little more expensive, you can’t place a value on human life. So if upgrading the lighting in your vehicle saves even one life (especially someone you are close to), it is well worth it.

Environmental Benefits of LED Bulbs

You also receive environmental benefits by switching to LED lights. They use less energy, and you don’t have to replace your bulbs as often. In fact, you may very well change vehicles before an LED bulb blows out. In the end, LED bulbs may save you a lot of time and money on replacing bulbs.

#1 Brighter, Cleaner Light

LEDs cannot be matched for the clean, white light they produce. Whether you are getting in and out of the vehicle or searching around for something that was dropped on the floorboards, LEDs can make your job easier and possibly safer as well.

#2 Customization

LEDs come in all sorts of colors, so if bright, white light isn’t your thing, you can express yourself as you please. This a great way to give your vehicle an updated look and feel. Plus, you can create the mood you want for yourself and passengers.

#3 Energy Saving

LEDs use less power. For one thing, that gives you longer bulb life. In fact, it is unlikely you will ever have to replace LED bulbs as they tend to last longer than most people own a vehicle. Additionally, since LEDs use less power, you may even be able to get away with the occasional passenger who doesn’t close the door all the way and still come back to a functioning battery.
