R7S Led Bulb

Hi All
Just a quick question - would I be right in thinking that LED bulbs do not give out heat as Halogen bulbs do ? Please correct me if I'm wrong ! Happy New Year to all !

Yes - it's the wattage that produces the heat, so low wattage = low heat produced.

They do produce heat, but not nearly as much as an incandescent or halogen. A standard 60W bulb equates to about a 9W LED, so you're saving on your energy bill too. :))

Nothing is 100% efficient. But LEDs are more efficient at turning electrical energy to light than halogen bulbs. So you'll need to turn your heating on as well.
