LED light increases my heating bill vent.

I used to have an angle poise light with a 100 watt halogen bulb in it.
It gave off a lot of heat and kept the small room I have my computer in, along with the heat from my computer, nice and warm.
Then I knocked it off my computer desk and it broke.
I replaced it with a LED lamp and now I have to have a small oil filled radiator in the room with me.
Save on electricity by buying a LED lamp and spend it on heating instead.

But come the summer, you will be saving money. (Apart from the cost of the radiator, of course.)
And you now have proper control of the heat via the radiator, rather than having a fixed amount from the lamp irrespective of the outside temperature and thus the boost needed.There are two types of people in the world: Those that can extrapolate information.0 -
Led bulbs are more efficient than incandescent bulbs and many CFL abet not by much for CFL. A inefficient bulbs like a incandescent bulbs as a by product generates heat0

Well, the increased bill is not caused by your LED lamp, and we know LED bulbs will not create much heat so they are safer to use.When it comes to summer, you will be very happy with this lamp, will save you a lot on electronic bills.
