• Do LED Light Bulbs come in different wattage?

-Yes LED bulbs come in a variety of different wattages ranging from 6w all the way to 40watts for larger bulbs.

Common Mis-Conceptions of LED (Energy Efficient Lights)

LED Lights are not as bright as regular light bulbs or (incandescent bulbs)
FALSE
THEY ARE UP TO 10x BRIGHTER THAN REGULAR LIGHTS (INCANDESCENTS)
They don't last as long as (incandescent bulbs)
FALSE
THEY LAST UP TO 50x LONGER THAN REGUALR LIGHTS
They don't cost much less than (incandescents)
FALSE
THEY COST UP TO 80% LESS THAN REGULAR LIGHTS (INCANDESCENTS)

Numerous studies show that LED lighting is far mor efficient.  Infact LED Light Bulbs are up to 10 times more efficient than incandescent light bulbs.   LED bulbs out perform traditional light bulbs 5 to 1. They are brighter and more dynamic than any other light bulb in the world.
And the best of all,  LEDs use up to 80% less electricity than current incandescent light bulbs use.
