*********************** ARTICLE START ***********************
Although everyone may have seen a LED light tubes in their lifetime, they may not have realized what they were actually looking at. Light tubes, whether LED or not, are exactly what they sound like. They are composed of a glass or silicon outer shell that houses a lighting structure. They are tubular shaped, and usually mounted in ceilings, behind a glass or plastic shield. They are commonly seen, and most people might recognize them from here, in school buildings or even gymnasiums. Less commonly, light tubes are present in walk-in coolers, offices, warehouses, and even some people are putting them in their houses for the garage or kitchen. LED light tubes are known for producing a better, stronger light more effectively and with less waste. Due to their decreased carbon footprint, LED lights are becoming more common and are available for many more rebates than other kinds of lights.

LED lights are touted to release seventy percent less carbon monoxide than fluorescent lights, and the difference between LED lights and incandescent lights is said to be even greater. LED lights also do not possess the dangerous mercury and argon gases that are necessary for a fluorescent light to function. For this reason, LED tube lights are beginning to take over the once famous fluorescent tube lights, despite the difference in start up cost. LED lights have proven themselves to be more energy efficient, due to their diode allowing current to flow in only one direction. This means the light is targeted and focused, released at about a one hundred and twenty degree angle. This is compared to incandescent and fluorescent lights that scatter it randomly. LED lights also produce much less heat than other forms of lighting, allowing those needing the light to be comfortable in their own space and also preventing the necessity of the air conditioning unit running all day. These factors alone greatly reduce electricity bills and make the investment of LED tube lights more and more worth it. Because of the decrease in carbon monoxide gas, the low amount of electricity wasted as heat, and the fact that they're so recyclable, owners of LED lights are eligible for many more rebates than if their entire building was outfitted with archaic incandescent lights. In some countries that have a carbon tax, this can be incredibly helpful and may even make home owners eligible for a rebate, instead of having to pay taxes at the end of the year!

One LED light tube is usually around sixty to seventy dollars, making them a bit of a hefty investment, especially when considering the fact that a light fixture usually requires two to four of those tubes. However, with the monthly decrease in energy bills, and the rebates available for owning these kinds of lights, it is becoming more and more practical for business and homeowners to make the investment. In addition, LED lights are not just available in tubes anymore and are quite commonly made in standard light bulb shape, meaning they can replace almost any bulb in the house.
