FAQs

 

What is LED?

A Light Emitting Diode (LED) is a semiconductor light source that emits light when current flows through it. The earliest LEDs discovered by Oleg Losev in 1962 emitted low-intensity infrared light.

Today, LED can create a variety of colours and temperatures and is one of the most energy efficient lighting technologies in the market.

Why Light Emitting Diodes?

LED is highly energy efficient dispersing less heat whilst providing more light at a lower cost - switch to LED is a no brainer.

What warranty do you provide?

5 years on all of our LED products, excluding emergency kits which have 3.

What energy savings can I expect from Low Energy Designs LED lights?

Customers are recording between 70 – 82% savings on their existing energy bills.

Can you provide bespoke solutions?

Yes. We’ve provided lots of our customers with lights that have been tailored to fit the exact request.

What is the realistic return of investment (ROI)?

Based on Blue Chip companies the ROI typically runs between 8 – 18 months.

Can you do a lighting scheme for us?

Yes we offer a free of charge lighting design and business proposal service for you.

The other option is to use T5 CFL lights instead, why shouldn’t I use these instead of LED?

It takes more energy to product a T5 CFL tube than the savings it makes in it’s operational life. T5 CFL straight tubes use between 3 – 5mg of Mercury. You can expect to replace the T5 CFL tube between 6 – 10 times before having to replace any LED.

What are your returns process?

We ask that you send the faulty product back to us so we can investigate and prepare a report for repair. We normally turn RMA’s around within 24 hours.

 

If I can’t afford it but know I need to do it, what are my options?

  1. We offer a complete fully leased funded solution. This can include the complete design, supply, installation and after care all based upon getting the monthly repayment lower than your what it currently costs your company to run the lights. This means there is an immediate cost saving without any capital outlay.

  2. Carry out smaller sections/rooms or aisles at a time as any change of lighting will dramatically reduce your energy consumption.

  3. We prefer to work with you, we would potentially look at pricing to complete the whole installation so you benefit from any quantity discounts, but as you obtain funds you would order lights to complete a section at a time.

  4. Possible government grant help
