LED is the future of stage lighting

Tip number 1 is to always use LED lights for events. This is because LED stage lights are in fact around ten times as efficient as the older tungsten ones. This means that it will use up ten times less power to achieve the same amount of brightness levels. Good eh? Fantastic we think. As well as this, they also last up to hundreds of hours more, while emitting a lot less heat so no chance or at least a very low chance of catching fire.
