Technology Explained

LEDs - Light Emitting Diodes
LEDs are fast replacing conventional bulbs in torches, there are a few reasons why:
- Efficiency - LEDs use a lot less power
- Ruggedness - It's very hard to damage an LED with impact
- Flashing - LEDs can be fast cycled on and off, unlike a normal bulb with delicate filament
- Size - New LED technology means very bright outputs can be produced from a tiny LED
