LEDs are âdirectionalâ light sources, which means they emit light in a specific direction, unlike incandescent and compact fluorescent bulbs, which emit light and heat in all directions. For this reason, LED lighting is able to use light and energy more efficiently in many applications.

Bulbs can be divided into three main categories: incandescents, compact fluorescents (CFLs) and light-emitting diodes (LEDs). Weâre most familiar with incandescents, which make use of technology from over 100 years ago. These cost the least, but emit heat and use up the most energy.
