2020 LED bulbs will account for 42 percent of residential lighting bulbs
Due to the improvement of the quality of LED lights, and prices continued to fall, more and more consumers are choosing to buy efficient, environmentally friendly LED, home to replace incandescent, halogen or CFL bulbs, the US professional market research company, said recently unrivaled architecture IHS , 2022, residential lighting applications, nearly half of the bulb will be LED bulbs (42%), while the proportion in 2014 was only 4%.
Incandescent bulbs due to the short life of about one thousand hours, so basically even less time to be replaced every year; but the LED bulb life of up to 50,000 hours, can be used for 20 years or longer, and therefore needs to replace the lamp rarely. LED bulbs generally designed for conventional bulbs look so common to the original bulb lamp, base and other accessories. Although this convenient for consumers, and reduce the initial cost of renovation, but the project is far from ideal in terms of not only the driver electronics need to be squeezed into the base of the bulb to sit, because of the relatively small size of the bulb is a thermal challenge. Integrated Drive LED light bulbs more advantages compared to electronic circuits.
Has the following advantages: provides greater flexibility in the design and thermal management, and because of the need fewer parts, a LED light source integrated lower cost than the traditional style LED bulb replacement. Integrated LED light bulb is applied to those parts of the existing traditional building may take some time, but they are obviously a very attractive new building options.
IHS also said that some types of lamps is more suitable for integrated LED lights. 2014, LED lights are about 39% for the integration of the LED, and by 2022 this figure is expected to increase 82%, this is because the upgrade will require intelligent LED lights, the need for new wiring and fittings.
Overall, the total is expected to account for about 44% of the LED lighting market in 2020, even in the slowest penetration residential applications, the number is also expected to more than a third of the market.
