Do LED Lights Also "Slack Off"?

 

A friend complained that his LED lights started to "slack off" after just two years of use, with the brightness gradually decreasing and not being as bright as when they were first purchased. In fact, the LED lights are not slacking off; they are simply going through a lumen depreciation period. Just as a phone battery drains faster after prolonged use, LED lighting can also experience a decline in light efficiency due to unstable currents, poor heat dissipation, voltage fluctuations, and other factors. Over time, the lights become increasingly dim.

Why Does Lumen Depreciation Occur?

 

Poor Heat Dissipation of LED Fixtures: This can lead to material aging, causing the light to turn yellow and dim.

 

Voltage Fluctuations: These can cause changes in current, leading to uneven temperatures in the LED chips and accelerating their aging.

 

I advised my friend not to rush to replace the lights but to try changing the driver LED driver first!

 

1. Choose a Smart LED driver with "Lumen Depreciation Compensation" Function

For example, the Suretron D4i series smart dimmable LED driver has a lumen depreciation compensation function. It can start micro-current compensation before the brightness of the fixture noticeably decreases, helping to maintain the brightness of LED lights and slow down their aging process.

2. Choose a Stable and Reliable Smart LED driver

The entire series of Suretron smart power supplies use high-quality components to ensure stability and reliability during use. This allows them to provide stable current and voltage for LED lights, avoiding damage to the LED chips caused by voltage fluctuations and further delaying lumen depreciation.

 

3. Choose a Long-Lasting Smart LED driver

Suretron's smart power supplies, designed for a 5-year lifespan, have excellent durability. This significantly reduces the need for LED driver replacements and lowers maintenance costs.

 

4.Choose a High-Efficiency Smart LED driver

High-efficiency Suretron smart power supplies generate less heat, effectively reducing the working temperature of LED fixtures. This provides a more suitable operating environment for LED lights and helps to delay lumen depreciation.
