Comparison between LED street lamp and xenon street lamp

LED street lamp and xenon street lamp are two common street lamp types, which are different in lighting effect, energy consumption, life span and environmental protection.

First of all, LED street lamps have obvious advantages in lighting effect. LED street lamp adopts high brightness LED light source, which has high light efficiency and can provide brighter and more uniform lighting effect. Xenon street lamps use xenon discharge bulbs, and the light efficiency is relatively low, which is not as good as LED street lamps.

Secondly, LED street lamps are more energy efficient. The energy consumption of LED street lamps is only about half that of xenon street lamps, which can greatly reduce energy consumption. Xenon street lamps need high voltage and current to maintain xenon discharge, which consumes a lot of energy.

Third, LED street lamps have a longer life. The life of LED street lamps can usually reach more than 50,000 hours, while the life of xenon street lamps is generally around 1000 hours. LED street lamps have long service life, which can reduce the frequency of replacing lamps and reduce maintenance costs.

Finally, LED street lamps have more advantages in environmental protection. LED street lamps do not contain harmful substances such as mercury and will not pollute the environment. Xenon street lamps contain xenon and other harmful substances, which may cause certain pollution to the environment during use.

To sum up, compared with xenon street lamps, LED street lamps have obvious advantages in lighting effect, energy consumption, life span and environmental protection. With the continuous development and maturity of LED technology, LED street lamps will be more and more widely used in the field of street lighting.
