Charlotte Outdoor Lighting Retrofits
An oldie but a goodie, halogen lighting technology was first invented in 1959 by Elmer Fridrich and Emmett Wiley at General Electric in the United States. It wasn’t until the 1970s that outdoor halogen lighting became more widely available and began to be used in both residential and commercial settings for beautification, safety and enhanced security.
The bright, white light produced by halogen bulbs made them a popular choice for outdoor lighting, as they could effectively illuminate large areas and enhance the security of buildings and outdoor spaces.
Recently, however, halogen lighting has become less popular due to its energy inefficiency and the availability of more energy-efficient LED lighting options. Should this be the case outside and around your home’s exterior, it would be our pleasure to bring your lighting system up to date with our expert Charlotte Outdoor Lighting retrofits. We’ll take the best of what you already have and replace the rest by retrofitting your original system.

What Is LED, You Ask, And How Is It Superior To Older Halogen Outdoor Lighting?
LED – or Light Emitting Diode lighting – is considered superior to halogen lighting for outdoor lighting for several reasons.
- Energy Efficiency: LED lights use significantly less energy than halogen lights to produce the same amount of light, which means they are more energy efficient. This results in lower energy bills and a reduced environmental impact.
- Longer Lifespan: Carolina Landscape Lighting LED lights have a much longer lifespan than your original halogen outdoor lights, which means they need to be replaced less frequently. This reduces maintenance costs and inconvenience.
- Durability: Our LED lights are more durable than halogen lights and can withstand harsh weather conditions such as extreme temperatures, rain, and snow. This makes them ideal for outdoor use where they may be exposed to the elements.
- Better Quality of Light: Our LED lights produce a better quality of light than halogen lights. They offer a more natural and uniform color temperature, and their light output is more consistent and reliable.
- Greater Design Flexibility: Carolina Landscape Lighting LED lights are available in a wide range of styles, sizes, and colors, making them ideal for a variety of outdoor lighting applications. They can be used to create dramatic lighting effects and to highlight architectural features and landscape elements.
Overall, the smart money is on LED lighting as a more efficient, durable, and versatile option for outdoor lighting than halogen lighting. While the initial cost of LED lights may be higher, the long-term savings in energy and maintenance costs make them a more cost-effective choice in the long run. As the saying goes, with our LED, you get what you pay for.
