LED lights are gaining popularity in vehicles such as cars, motorcycles and trucks. LED lamps and LED bulbs have many advantages over more traditional halogen lamps: they are brighter, provide better light quality, are less prone to breakage, and consume less energy than standard lamps.

　　If you're considering upgrading your vehicle with a set of LED lights or LED bulbs and want to learn more, here's a quick guide with everything you need to know about LEDs, how they work, and whether they're road legal.

　　These are the three main advantages that make car LED bulbs worth the upgrade:

　　1. Energy Efficiency: LEDs are the most efficient bulbs for converting electrical energy into lighting output. They get incredibly bright light while using far less energy than halogen or xenon HID bulbs, which is great for the environment and extends battery life.

　　In fact, LED bulbs use 40% less energy than Xenon HID bulbs and over 60% less energy than halogen bulbs. It is for this reason that LEDs can also lower your car taxes.

　　2. Lifespan: LED has the longest lifespan of all car bulbs on the market. They are good for 11,000 – 20,000 miles and beyond, which means they last the entire time you own the vehicle.

　　3. Performance: Compared with other lighting technologies, LED bulbs can control the direction of the light beam to the greatest extent. This allows drivers to avoid casting light at steep angles, meaning other drivers are less dazzled.
