Four Things Every Retailer Should Know About LEDs
Lighting expert Joe Rey-Barreau reveals the solid-state lighting essentials every lighting showroom needs to know.
3. LED Prices Are Dropping
Rey-Barreau says: Right now, LED products tend to be more expensive than incandescent products, but that’s expected to change. Like with any product, once it becomes more of a commodity, it will become less expensive. Six months ago, you wouldn’t find replacement LED light bulbs for less than $40. The other day, I saw them for $10.
