As the effects of the recession continue to be felt, many consumers are turning to energy efficient light bulbs as a way of not only addressing environmental concerns posed by the Government but as a means of reducing energy bills. Now, BLT Direct, the leading online providers of energy saving light bulbs, low energy light bulbs and light fittings are offering advice to make the big switch over as smooth as possible.
Providing visitors to their site with an extensive range of energy efficient light bulbs and alternatives to the light bulb in its traditional form, switching to more energy efficient bulbs, such as LED lightbulbs, will reduce your monthly energy bill.
A spokesman from the firm said, “if you invested in a 0.7W light bulb which had the equivalent normal wattage of 10W and you ran it for a day, you would save £12.22 annually. That may not seem like a lot but if you had one of those bulbs in each of your rooms and passageways, that could easily save you up to £100 every year, if not more!
“Customers should look carefully at their specific requirements in terms of the type and brand of bulb required. It is important to bear in mind that energy saving compact fluorescent bulbs only need about a quarter of the energy needed by regular bulbs. For example, if you are looking to replace a standard sixty watt bulb, then you should choose a fifteen watt compact fluorescent bulb.”
Whilst energy saving light bulbs may be more expensive than incandescent light bulbs initially, they will last for far longer and save you a considerable sum on your energy bill, which makes them the ideal long term investment.
