LED Lenser HP Review | High Performance Blog

For those unfamiliar with what a LED flashlight, here’s a quick tutorial.  Flashlights using light emitting diodes (LEDs) use bulbs that are essentially semiconductors that directly convert electricity into light. These differ from other light sources which use liquids like mercury or gasses like neon to convert the electricity to light. Because of this elimination of the “middle man” the light that emits from a white LED light is far more powerful than a traditional flashlight source. Additionally, such a light is not a drain on a battery and can last A LOT longer than a traditional flashlight. This is why you here people talk, including myself, about how cost and energy efficient this technology really is.  This kind of efficiency and brightness is why LED flashlights have become the number one choice of military, law enforcement and emergency personnel.

You have probably heard a lot about how much “energy-savings” LED lights provide. But what does that really mean? Does it really affect you in the long run?  I think it does. Take LED flashlights as an example.  Your standard police or camping flashlight that uses incandescent light bulbs will go through 17 bulbs and 80 batteries over the course of 200 hours of use.  Sounds standard, right? I mean, we all have had to replace the batteries in our flashlights multiple times over the course of the summer.  But compare that to an LED flashlight, like LED Lenser.  The same flashlight that utilizes an LED bulb will go through 8 batteries and 1 LED bulb over a 200 hour period of use.
