Replacement LED floodlights can be supplied with a PIR sensor as well as used on timer switches and so give landlords an opportunity to save more money on the cost of lighting up the external areas of their properties. Often placed high-up or in inaccessible locations, LED security lights last upto 50,000 hours and so any maintenance costs and replacement costs of LED flood and security light variants are substantially reduced over the life of the lamps.

LED Panel Lighting

LED Spotlight Bulbs
