LED technology is the very best option for outdoor lighting today. Outdoor Lighting Perspectives of Charlotte brings new customers on board with LED fixtures for several reasons. Previously, the color of LED lighting was bluish and harsh, and we did not recommend it to our customers. In the past few years, however, LED technology has greatly improved and we are now quite enthusiastic about it. Charlotte LED outdoor lighting provides a clean, natural and beautiful illumination for all of your landscape lighting and architectural lighting needs.

LED lighting is 70-80% more energy efficient than traditional lighting technologies. Using LED light sources will deliver a substantial savings in energy costs. In addition to that savings, with LED you will get a longer bulb life with less frequent replacement. Please see the chart below for a comparison. Because LED requires so much less energy, using Charlotte LED outdoor lighting decreases your carbon footprint on the environment. At the same time, these new LED lights are more durable and resilient than ordinary lighting systems.

Finally, we recommend LED bulbs because they are UV-free and therefore less prone to attracting insects. That’s a win-win for everyone!

Is an LED upgrade or retrofit right for you?

Here at Outdoor Lighting Perspectives of Charlotte we strive to provide the right balance of value and convenience for customers looking to upgrade their current outdoor lighting systems. Many times it is not necessary to discard all the elements of an existing system in order to bring your outdoor lighting up to date. By updating and replacing specific elements of your existing system, and the fixtures themselves, we can save you a substantial amount of time and money over starting from scratch. This is what we refer to as retrofitting. We can provide many solutions for retrofitting your existing low voltage quartz€ halogen lighting system to LED. Retrofit candidacy varies based on the types of fixtures you have and the age of your system. Outdoor Lighting Perspectives of Charlotte can evaluate your current system and provide options tailored to your specific needs, budget and personal taste.

On the project pictured above, which is located in the quaint Elizabeth neighborhood in Charlotte, we converted the homeowner’s existing line voltage to super-efficient LED. We also converted many of the handmade specialty fixtures the homeowner had picked out for a new landscape design.

A huge advantage of LED is that LED bulbs are engineered to last much longer than halogen bulbs. LEDs have an average useful bulb life of up to 50,000 hours, while the quartz halogen bulb has a useful bulb life between 2,000‑3,000 hours. The light provided by LED lighting is crisp, clear and bright. Because of their long life expectancy, you can expect to enjoy this light, without replacement costs, for much longer than traditional lighting sources.

If you are considering an LED upgrade for your outdoor lighting system or considering converting your existing system to LED, Outdoor Lighting Perspectives of Charlotte is here to help you every step of the way. We are the area’s premier choice for outdoor lighting design and installation. The truth is, upgrading or conversion is really much easier than you may think. In the hands of our highly skilled technicians, you can be cutting energy costs in no time. If you want to make additions to your system we may even be able to add more fixtures to your current transformer than you thought. Since LEDs use less wattage, more lights can be added than when you use halogen lighting.
