Advantages and Disadvantages of Led Light Bars

The led light bar has caused a stir particularly in the world of emergency lighting. It has been hailed as a brilliant alternative to strobe light bars. A led light bar is an efficient source of power, and produces more light per watt than most lights. The intensity of light and the efficiency of the light bar itself are not affected by shape or size of the light bar unlike fluorescent light bars or tubes. The effectiveness of the light can also be seen in the on/off time of the light bars. The led light bar takes under a microsecond to attain full brightness. Led lights can also emit the intended color light without the use of colored domes, color filters or other traditional methods for changing light color. This means that the cost of production goes down, as well as with less components, there is less that can go wrong with the light bar.

A led light bar can also be very easily dimmed unlike other previous light bars. Dimming simply requires one to lower the forward current or dim through pulse- width modulation. In this light bar, wasted energy is dispersed as heat through its base. This means that sensitive material or flammable ones are not affected by heat radiated by the light bar, as is the case with older ones. Another advantage associated with a led light bar is that failure occurs through dimming of the light bar over time rather than a sudden or abrupt failure. The dimming light can be observed and used as a tell sign of when the light bar needs to be replaced. This also means that the light bar is constantly working. They also last long and are estimated to give about 35,000 to 50, 000 hours of useful light. It may take even longer until complete failure of the led light bar. Fluorescent light on the other hand gives about 10, 000 to 15, 000 hours of useful light.

There are however disadvantages associated with the use of a led light bar. There is a very high initial cost for installing a led light bar, and this may deter someone on a low budget from making use of this technology. There are other light bars that may work almost as well and cost less than half the price of the led light bar. The life of this light bar is also dependant on the temperature of the operating area. If it is constantly used in places with high temperatures, this will reduce its working life as well as make it susceptible to breaking down.

This is not good especially for emergency vehicles that are required to work in places with different temperatures.led light bars have also raised concern that their constant use might exceed what eye specialists call blue-light hazard. This is specifically a concern with led lights that are blue or cool white. These may damage the eyesight of the individual using a led light bar as well as those around.

Red Lights $23.09 Steve Hogan, a dissolute drunk, is on a road trip with his wife to pick up their children, but he becomes distracted at a bar along the way. While he is drinking, his wife leaves, taking a bus north. Soon Hogan picks up and befriends a drifter who embodies, for Hogan, a heroic free spirit, a man who has rejected the miserable confines of society. However, it turns out that this man, an escaped convict, has raped Hogan`s wife. Now Hogan has to embrace the society he has rejected and face his own culpability in the crime. Belgian author Georges Simenon wrote hundreds of novels during his incredibly prolific literary career and was best known for his Inspector Maigret mystery novels. However, his "romans durs" or "hard novels" such are RED LIGHTS are rightfully hailed as minor masterpieces that provide disturbing dissections of society and humanity.

City Lights $9.99 With a poet’s clear eye and a journalist’s curiosity about how a city works, Dan Barry shows us New York as no other writer has seen it.   Evocative, intimate, piercing, and often funny, the essays in City Lights capture everyday life in the city at its most ordinary and extraordinary. Wandering the city as a columnist for The New York Times , Barry visits the denizens of the Fulton Fish Market on the eve of its closing; journeys with an obsessed guide through the secret underground of abandoned subway stops, tunnels, and aqueducts; touches down in bars, hospitals, churches, diners, pools, zoos, memorabilia-stuffed apartments, at births and funerals, the places where people gather, are welcomed, or depart; talks to the ex-athlete who caught the falling baby, the performance artist who works as a mermaid, the octogenarian dancers who find quiet joy in their partnership, and the guy who waves flags over the Cross-Bronx Expressway to wish drivers safe passage.    Along the way, Barry offers glimpses of New York’s distant and recent past. He explains why the dust-coated wishbones hanging above the bar at McSorley’s Old Ale House belong to the doughboy ghosts of World War I. He recalls a century of grandeur at the Plaza Hotel throught the tales of longtime doormen who will soon be out of a job. He finds that an old man’s quiet death opens back into a past that the man had spent his life denying. And, from the vantage of the Circle Line cruise around Manhattan, he joins tourists as they try to make sense of still-smoldering ruins in Lower Manhattan three weeks after September 11, 2001. Each story in City Lights illuminates New York, as it was and as it is: always changing, always losing and renewing parts of itself, every street corner an opportunity for surprise and revelation.
