|
Long lifespan due to lack of electrodes - between 65,000 and 100,000 hours depending on the lamp model. |
|
|
|
Very high energy conversion efficiency of between 62 and 90 Lumens/watt [higher wattage lamps are more energy efficient]. |
|
|
|
Increased power factor due to the low loss in high frequency electronic
ballasts, which are between 95% and 98% efficient. |
|
|
|
Minimal Lumen depreciation (declining light output with age) compared to other lamp types as filament evaporation and depletion is absent. |
|
|
|
"Instant-on" and hot re-strike, unlike most conventional lamps used in commercial/ industrial lighting applications (Sodium vapour and Metal Halides). |
|
|
|
Environment friendly as induction lamps use less energy, and generally use less mercury per hour of operation than conventional lighting due to their long lifespan. The mercury is in a solid form
and can be easily recovered if the lamp
is broken, or recycled at end-of-life. |
