Come on out THE CONSERVATION ZONE Seasonal LED Lighting I Peter Love Chief Energy Conservation Officer of Ontario If you plan to decorate this holiday season, now is the time to get the SLEDs out and save some electricity dollars! That's right — Seasonal Light Emitting Diode lights! These festive lights use up to 90% less electricity, and last up to 10 times longer than traditional incandescent seasonal lights. LED lights and other energy efficient lighting products are sold throughout Ontario. Celebrate savings this holiday SLEDs are a "brilliant" idea for many reasons. They cost a little more, but the long-term energy savings will be a gift every holiday season. They'll pay for themselves within a season or two (depending on how often they are used) through the reduced cost of energy and replacement bulbs. SLEDs are quickly becoming the lighting product of choice, too. Many people find they prefer the sharper, brighter colours of SLEDs compared to regular incandescents. Here are just a few more jolly good reasons to "SLED" this season: • With no breakable bulbs, SLEDs are shatter- proof, and shock, water and wind -resistant • If a light malfunctions, the rest stay lit • Variety is the spice of life -- SLEDs come in a variety of sizes and shapes, such as straw- berry, raspberry, mini -lights and rope lighting • Choose your colour scheme. SLEDs are available in white, red, green, gold, blue, clear and multi, and in strings of 25, 35, 70 or 100 lights. Look for SLEDs that are CSA -approved. For outdoor use, make sure you purchase outdoor -rated products and always follow the manufacturer's instructions. Be part of Ontario's "Ten Per Cent Challenge" today. Trim your tree — and your energy use — with CSA -approved, energy-efficient SLED lights this holiday season. Save even more by using programmable timers to manage your festive lighting displays — indoors and out. Choosing the products that are right for your home could save you up to 10 % on your electricity bill and will help Ontario meet our energy supply challenge.
