LED Lights: Environmentally Friendly

Bellylaf is getting even greener at the 2008 ABC Kids Expo being held in Las Vegas September 7-11, 2008. Our in house design team has been busy creating our trade show Booth (#2134) for our company and product launch and we plan to incorporate environmentally friendly products into our booth design. We have decided to break away from the norm of using standard high wattage light bulbs or even dangerous mercury filled CFL’s. After extensive research, our team selected extremely energy efficient LED lights.

LED lights have a number of benefits:

• LED’s have eight times the efficiency of incandescent lights, and twice as high as compact fluorescent lights
• LED’s emit a much higher percentage of light in the desired direction
• LED’s operate at much lower temperatures. Halogen and incandescent lights are hot enough to cause fire
• LED lights emit no damaging ultraviolet light
• LED’s can operate for 30,000 to 50,000 hours. One LED lightbulb can easily outlast 30 incandescent bulbs, or 6 compact fluorescents!
• LED lights help the atmosphere. Regular light bulbs put carbon dioxide, sulfur oxide and nuclear waste into the landfills and atmosphere
• LEDs light up very quickly and achieve full brightness in microseconds (try that with a CFL)
• POWER CONSUMPTION = at 4–5 V approximately 100 mW. That’s 100 MILIWATTS

Drop by our booth to see Grippees™ and MiniMitts™ — our new lines of wash mitts for kids and adults will no doubt light up the show!
